Leshoure who was coming off injuries the PY and Bell who the lions are high on will suffice.

??????????? Why atlanta? CJ doesn't seem like the randy moss , Chad Johnson type where he's a drama queen. he's a high character guy. Having said that, if Detroit isn't even close to contending in 2 years, i think he'll ask the FO for a trade to a contender with a QB that can get him the ball. Atl is one choice of many, but its tough to say what the teams are oging to look like 2 years from now

That is not how football works. A rebuilding NFL team will probably want to get a first round pick and the following year's second round pick for a talent like Johnson.

I don't believe the running back has anything to do with the running game. if i was the Lions, i would make the draft really simple

1st round. Chance Warmack

2nd round. D.J. Fluker

3rd round. Eddie Lacy or Barrett Jones

Then just build your defense next year when Clowney and Tuitt are in the draft.
