I think Adrian Peterson can be very good this year, Russel has no great receivers to throw to, and Quinn may need some time to develop.  Calvin Johnson could also do well this season but Kitna needs to have a better season next year.  Peterson can be good this year simply because hes got a decent team around him, Chester Taylor was able to run for over 1000 yards last season and if he can do it Peterson can too.  Of course if the two share the load of carries Peterson won't rush for as many yards.

Yeah, and it's easier for a WR to make a quick impact. I mean, look at Colsten. The guy would have won it last year if he hadn't gotten injured. He was two picks away from being last in the draft and he comes out hot!!! If CJ can live up to his potential, he will run away with it. Even with Roy Williams getting the ball a lot!

Yeah, I dont know why people criticize the Lions for picking 4 recivers, Charles Rogers wasn't a bad player he just got unlucky and injured, Roy Williams is great and spectacularhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPJXdXsrjSA, Mike Williams did drop a lot of passes and is now a Raider but still has potentialhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQqS5RLdBH8 and Calvin Jhonson is the real dealhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXRqyjzyBRg

CJ easily. He's going to play under an offensive genius, Mike Martz who turned Jon kinta into a 4,000 yard thrower.

With Mike Martz definitely Calvin Johnston. Judging by his combine numbers Kitna just has to throw the ball within 20 yards of the guy and he'll catch it. Now all the Lions have to work on from a WR standpoint is to get Roy Williams to shut up.
