Start Crabtree against the Lions?

I have a feeling that Crabtree is going to have a big game tomorrow. The Lions have 3 starting DBs out, and Crabtree is clearly the number one target for Smith. But is he worth starting over other WRs this week? I have 2 WR spots and a FLEX that can be filled with some combination of Welker, Nicks, Antonio Brown, Lance Moore, and Crabtree. I was planning on going with Wes, Nicks, and Brown. But I'm thinking about swapping one of them for Crabtree. Is this just 9er homerism or would it actually be a smart play?

I'm thinking about starting him over Dwayne Bowe at my flex spot. With potentially 3 of 4 starters out in the secondary for the Lions, could be a big night for Crabtree.
