Ian, Melhalff (Sp?) doesn't make your top 22 PK list yet he's on a very high scoring team. Bironas is #2 on a team that doesn't really light it up. Can you elaborate on your PK rankings? Thanks.

Saints are an outstanding red-zone team. They attempted field goals on only 20 percent of their red-zone possessions last year, last in the league. Tennessee is at the other end of the spectrum -- more likely to score 19 points with four field goals. The Titans attempted a league-high 39 field goals last year. I'm also not sure Mehlhaff will be the guy there. He missed an easy field goal against the Raiders. If he misses a couple of easy ones in the coming games, the Saints might plug someone else into that role. For that reason, I've got him projected at 1-2 fewer games than the vast majority of the other kickers. If you assume that all of the kickers are going to play the same number of games, than I'd be willing to put him at about No. 16.

What does the Roy Williams trade do to Calvins redraft value? It looks like the redrafter came out after Kitna was put on IR, but BEFORE the williams trade. You have Calvin down at 25, where does he fall in to place now that hes the clear cut #1 with little threat to his targets?

The cheat sheet for yardage plus TD leagues show pretty drastic discrepancies between the large print version and the standard version showing the stats. Which one is correct?

PHIL: The large-print version is incorrect. Those are the PPR rankings. So is the "overall top 35" on the previous page. The first sheet you see (with the projected stats included) is the correct one. Apologies.

Ian, it appears you skipped over my Calvin question. I feel unimportant now, :( Can you look it over?

I think it helps Calvin Johnson (and I hope I'm not justing hoping that because I have him in two or three of my seven leagues). I think he can be a Roddy White type of receiver for the Lions -- pretty much the only guy they've got. I see Johnson as having a chance to potentially account for 40-plus percent of that team's receiving yards and half of its TD catches. Now that's a team that probably will only average about 180 passing yards and 1 TD pass per game from this point going forward, but I think Johnson moves up on draft boards -- top-10 receiver I think (I hope).
