The Detroit Lions haven't featured a 600-yard rusher since Joique Bell in 2014. So I understand why you'd want nothing to do with a running back in this offense. But the Lions improved their offensive line this offseason -- early camp reports are glowing -- and spent an early second-round selection on a running back.

Johnson is currently taking a customary rookie backseat to the veterans in the Lions' backfield. However, given his draft capital, Johnson could be the Lions' primary runner at some point in 2018, with LeGarrette Blount handling short-yardage work and Theo Riddick playing on passing downs.

If Johnson can get the lead role early, he could have a sneaky-good ceiling behind a quality offensive line.
