Kevin Jones injury front...
Well, it happened again. Kevin Jones got injured at the end of the first half, a torn ACL. My first reaction was that it looked like it would be a broken leg, which might have been a better case scenario. He's looking at 8-10 months of recovery time, which would face him squarely in the same position as he was this year. He'll probably be on PUP during training camp, so the Lions need to be looking at free agent running backs, and running backs in the draft. As luck would have it, it's a decent year for running backs, and the Lions need to look at that position long term, instead of just a short-term fix. I'd love to have Oregon RB Jonathan Stewart in the 2nd round; he's the type of back who would do well in the Lions system. The first round is not a consideration for RB. The Lions need a corner or a pass rusher.
