A pair of solid fantasy running backs and a potent passing attack centered around Calvin Johnson help the Detroit Lions check in at No. 6 on the 2014 fantasy power rankings.
The Lions offer fantasy owners 40.1 percent more value compared to the average NFL team and 79.4 percent of the value compared to the NFL’s best team.
Detroit has a potent passing attack spearheaded by Matthew Stafford, a player that has thrown for 14,669 yards in the past three seasons. Detroit has not settled with “just Calvin,” and has surrounded Stafford with talented pass catchers. This offseason — through free agency and through the draft — the team added tight end Eric Ebron (with the 10th overall pick in the draft) and wideout Golden Tate.
