Joique Bell - Bell may have edge for Lions' No. 3 RB job

The Huddle — Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell may be the early favorite for the No. 3 running back job because he made plays when given the opportunity last season. Bell, though, will have to work on his ball security if he wants to win the job. Huddle Up: With the FA signing of Reggie Bush, starter Mikel Leshoure and Bell take a step back on the depth chart, leaving little chance either will repeat their 2012 production aside from an injury to Bush. For Bell that means his 899 yards from scrimmage and 5 TDs could easily be cut in half in 2013.

FFChamps.com — Detroit head coach Jim Schwartz says running backs Joique Bell and Mikel Leshoure will still be part of the Lions offense, according to a report from detroitlions.com, but we don't see how.Fantasy Spin:Bush figures to be the starter and the pass receiver and Leshoure should get the short yardage and goal line work. Barring injury, that obviously would leave Bell, who caught 52 balls last season, out in the cold.

Reggie Bush - Reggie Bush signs with Lions

The Huddle — The Detroit Lions have agreed to terms with RB Reggie Bush on a four-year deal. Financial terms were not disclosed. Huddle Up: Bush was reportedly told he'd be the Lions' starter, which would put Mikel Leshoure at the back end of Detroit's RBBC. Bush gives the Lions a dynamic back, especially in the passing game, while Leshoure is likely to hang on to the goal line work.

Reggie Bush - Lions offer Reggie Bush a starting position

The Huddle — The Detroit Lions have offered free-agent RB Reggie Bush a full-time position in the offense over RB Mikel Leshoure. Huddle Up: Bush would be the lead dog in a committee that also includes Mikel Leshoure and would give the Lions the closest thing they've had to a dynamic running back since Jahvid Best hung up his cleats. There are at least a couple other teams interested in Reggie, but the Lions are offering something (a starting gig) they may not be willing to offer.

Reggie Bush - Reggie Bush expected to be Lions' top target

The Huddle — Miami Dolphins impending free-agent RB Reggie Bush has emerged as one of the Detroit Lions' top free agent targets this offseason. Huddle Up: Adding a speed back like Bush to a rotation that includes Mikel Leshoure makes sense, as Bush would fill the role Jahvid Best handled until his injury. Such a role might result in fewer touches for Bush, and Leshoure is a solid goal line back, but Bush would still have value in PPR leagues.

Lions' Jim Schwartz says Mikel Leshoure might yet become big-play back

Detroit Free PressMikel Leshoure's first NFL season was lost to a torn Achilles tendon, and he never gained much traction in his second, averaging just 3.7 yards per carry. But two years after the Lions traded up to get Leshoure in the second round of the draft, they're still believers in his potential as a game-changing running back.

Big jump expected for Leshoure in '13

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Lions head coach Jim Schwartz expects a "big jump" from running back Mikel Leshoure this season. Speaking at the NFL combine Thursday, Schwartz wished his run game would create more explosive plays after creating three 20-plus-yard runs total in 2012. Leshoure did not have any of them (Joique Bell had all three). But Schwartz remains optimistic that Leshoure is the Lions' best back. "He flashed enough highs that gives us optimism that he can (be explosive), but he also had enough inconsistency to say that he's not there yet," he said. "We still have high hopes for him and expect him to make a ...
