Ranking Jonathan Taylor, Cam Akers and other rookie running backs by who'll make biggest 2020 impact (5. D'Andre Swift, Lions
Skill set: Thick back who excels as a receiver but lacks natural elusiveness. 2020 impact: I'm one of the few who wasn't nearly as high on Swift as the masses. He's a natural catcher of the football and does have a nice size/speed combination at 5-8 and 212 with 4.48 jets. Will he make defenders miss with great regularity in the NFL? I just don't see that happening. He'll run with authority, which should help him get more than what's blocked to a certain degree. While he's drawn rave reviews for his pass-catching ability early at camp, Swift did suffer a leg injury at camp a week ago. Kerryon Johnson still projects to be the starter in Detroit for the time being. But Swift doesn't have any major competition for the 1B role in the Lions' backfield.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-jonathan-taylor-cam-akers-and-other-rookie-running-backs-by-wholl-make-biggest-2020-impact/

10 bold predictions for NFL rookies in 2020 (10. OUTSIDE OF THE QUARTERBACKS, THE LIONS' DRAFT CLASS WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST WAR IN 2019: This is another one that’s not too bold, as the Lions had a top-three pick and a ton of draft capital. Still, they turned it into a few impact players. They grabbed the fourth, 28th, 40th and 74th overall players on the PFF Big Board with their first four picks, and all look slated to start early on. If the Lions really are going to turn it around and take the NFC North in 2020, it’s going to come on the back of a strong rookie class.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-10-bold-predictions-rookies-2020
2020 NFL Preview: Ranking the eight divisions, from easiest to toughest (5. NFC North: This is probably the only division in which you can make a reasonable argument that any of the four teams can win it. The Green Bay Packers will take a step back from 13-3, but should still be pretty good. The Minnesota Vikings lost a lot, but still have a good core. The Chicago Bears were fantastic two seasons ago and could rebound. And if Matthew Stafford stays healthy, the Detroit Lions might have a really good offense.): https://sports.yahoo.com/2020-nfl-preview-ranking-the-eight-divisions-from-easiest-to-toughest-130014619.html
