Calvin Johnson is the No. 1 wide receiver in fantasy football.
To no one's surprise, SBNation's Fake Teams has ranked Calvin Johnson as the No. 1 wide receiver in fantasy football in 2012. Here's what the site had to say about the ranking:
This is the most No-Brainer ranking in the history of Fantasy Football. Calvin is the man and in a league of his own, period.
Megatron and quarterback Matthew Stafford have combined to form one of the most lethal combinations in the NFL. Johnson is coming off a 2011 season in which he caught 96 passes for 1,681 yards and 16 touchdowns. He also signed a $132 million contract that made him one of the highest paid players in the history of the NFL.

- Calvin Johnson
- Roddy White
- Greg Jennings
- Larry Fitzgerald
- A.J. Green
- Jordy Nelson
