With all of our high risks/high reward draft picks of late I wonder how high Marcus Lattimore is on our draft boards? If he's there in the third, do we consider him? He was no doubt the #1 overall best running back in this class before his knee injury. Do we roll a dice on another player with a knee injury? I say.. we should because Jim Schwartz and Martin Mayhew's careers as Lions are dangling by a string, but what if they steal a outstanding running back? He won't be ready Week 1, but he could be 100% by Week 5-8. I truly don't believe our running backs are the solutions and it's very obvious that Mikel Leshoure lost his step after his ACL tear. It's another hit/miss selection, but I don't believe Lattimore has any off-the-field issues, so hey why not?
That's of course we don't add a speed back.
if we dont get bush i dont see why not. just look at ap after his injurey, granted no one is like ap lol dudes a monster but it could pay off
