A few months ago, I did a similar ranking for the fully-stocked shelf of linebackers in the pantry at Allen Park this season. The Linebacker Power Rankings sparked several interesting discussions about a Detroit Lions positional group that many of us aren’t quite sure what to make of right now.
This week is my analysis of another position that has been shaken up in the offseason and figures to have quite a bit of preseason competition for jobs and roles. Following a surprising move to grab not one but two running backs in the draft, the Lions now have six under contract, with a lot of overlap in their specific skill sets but also a degree of individual flavor for each of them.
