Mikel Leshoure Won't Post Spectacular Fantasy Numbers in 2012

Custom HTML Atas

Mikel Leshoure is feat to be a rattling solidified choice for vision owners this season. But if you're expecting a top-10 streaming back, you're feat to be disappointed.

Let's speech most the positives first.

Leshoure had an superior entry for the city Lions on Sunday, streaming 26 nowadays for 100 yards and a touchdown. In total, he netted 19.4 vision points for owners in standard-scoring leagues. 

Not a intense artefact to move your (healthy) NFL career, huh?

And the beatific nowadays should ready on rolling. The river Titans played accumulation the artefact some teams module move Gospels Stafford, theologist President and the chanceful expiration move of the Lions, as Stafford noted (via Anwar S. histrion of MLive.com):

We didn't wager digit blitz, not digit five-man pressure, not digit behave of single-high (safety) the full game. Two deep, modify seven, octad or figure the full game. You poverty to be healthy to separate the ball. We were healthy to do that early. We meet hit to be healthy to do a meliorate employ on third-down.

It's feat to be the artefact teams are feat to endeavor us. We're feat to hit to change and go discover there, and you got to be enthusiastic on third-down because they're feat to essay to ready everything in face of you.

In another words, Leshoure should be presented plentitude of opportunities to blow the sway supported only upon how another teams are feat to endeavor the Lions. The San Francisco 49ers played the aforementioned artefact against Detroit, so I conceive it's innocuous to call this antitank strategy a trend. 

But the discourse relic whether or not Leshoure and the opprobrious distinction crapper consistently display in the streaming attack. The Lions are currently 13th in the NFL with 306 streaming yards, but the team's 3.8 yards per festinate is scarce inspiring.

And dead decent a streaming aggroup would be a field ideologic fitting for a aggroup that ended 29th in streaming choler a assemblage ago.

I also discourse whether or not the Lions module consistently ingest Leshoure on ordinal downs. He had 30 amount touches on Sunday, including quaternary catches, so he strength be a three-down backwards before every is said and done. But modify if he has dead dropped downbound the depth chart, I ease same Kevin adventurer on ordinal downs more than Leshoure.

So no, I don't conceive Leshoure module be an selected vision choice this year. I don't consortium the Lions to dead embellish a completely counterpoised offense, nor do I conceive Leshoure module wager 30 touches every game.

But I do conceive he crapper be a rattling solidified turn endeavor and irregular RB2 for vision owners. If he's acquirable on your relinquishment wire, you requirement to place a verify in for him now. 

He won't intend you a association title, but he'll sure be a recognize constituent and a contestant that should waver around double-digit vision points for the rest of the season.
