Mikel Leshoure - Detroit Lions

The Detroit Lions Management has a close eye on their new prospect, former Illinois running back, Mikel Leshoure.  Leshoure was highly scouted running back, and was selected by the Lions with the  57th overall pick in the 2011 draft.  He is scheduled to work with the team at the next unofficial Lions workout. The Lions hope Leshoure brings a lot of ambition to the team this year, and helps the team steadily grow over the next few season.

Now, lets take a look at some of Leshoure's previous work in high school and at Illinois.  Do you think Leshoure will have an instant impact on the Lions this season?  Or will he most likely ride the bench in his first year on the Lions?  Let us know what you think!
