I discussed how Taylor Decker's injury will affect the Lions in the Disaster Grades, but haven't mentioned him when it comes to fantasy football.
Decker's absence will obviously adversely affect the numbers of Matthew Stafford and his supporting cast. Stafford struggled at the end of 2016 when he lost Travis Swanson, and Decker is just about as important as Swanson is to the offense. Granted, Stafford also hurt his finger, which affected his play a bit, but there's no doubt that Swanson's injury played a factor.
Decker's absence could have similar consequences, and it'll also affect Ameer Abdullah, Golden Tate and Marvin Jones.
