Will the Detroit Lions still draft a running back? If so, who?

The Detroit Lions‘ depth chart appears to be full when it comes to running backs in the Motor City. Last year’s rookie phenom, Kerryon Johnson, is expected to be the focal point of the Lions’ rushing attack in 2019.

Although after playing in just 10 games last season, the Lions are expected to be more diligent about the way they use Johnson. Enter in free agent running back C.J. Anderson. Just signed on Monday, Anderson is expected to fill a role similar to LeGarrette Blount, who was not re-signed this offseason.
