This Is The Running Back The Lions Should Target
Not only is it not the best draft class when it comes to running backs, but it is a particularly deep draft with defensive players, especially on the line. And that is the Lions' greatest need.
Lendale White from the Tennessee Titans is a restricted free agent. He is a former 1,000-yard rusher, who is stuck behind Chris Johnson with the Titans. White had some issues with weight and maturity, but it seems like he has grown up. He lost the weight last year. He is 240 pounds and physical. He won't turn 26 until December. And Detroit might not be a distasteful destination for White. He's probably heard good things about it from his first cousin, Chauncey Billups.

Pat,
White might be a good runner, similar to James Stewart - although I don't think he will be quite that good. We will see how he does if the Lions go get him.

Marty,
Yeah. Similar to Stewart in that he is a straight line runner with some power. Stewart was a very good player. Problem was health. White seems to be durable.
