Did you follow that advice about starting Kevin Smith in week 12? Of course not. Nobody, anywhere was suggesting that about the fourth year back who only produced 256 total yards during the entire 2010 season, and just 29 during his 2011 debut in week 10.

Fantasy Player Profile: Kevin Smith

Fantasy Player Profile: Kevin Smith Detroit Lion’s running back Kevin Smith has a lot of upside for the 2009 season. He has a new offensive coordinator, a new playbook and has left the rookie year jitters behind him. Smith had very impressive rookie numbers for being on a team that went 0-16. The RB rushed for 976 yards and 8 touchdowns and had only 2 fumbles all of last season. The Lions were last in every rushing category, which didn’t help Smith’s fantasy numbers much, but did make the end result that much more impressive. The Lions are going to have to improve their passing game to be able to get a better running attack…
