The Lions have said that their offensive line should help their backfield situation, as they added both TJ Lang and Rick Wagner this year, while Taylor Decker is no longer a rookie. (Detroit Lions)
Fantasy Impact
The Lions committed a lot of resources to upgrading their line over the past couple of years, but Ameer Abdullah and Theo Riddick remain as the top backs on the team despite their lack of production and availability. Riddick has set value due to being a PPR monster, but Abdullah has yet to live up to the hype from his rookie year. With the offensive line better than ever and no presence of a better runner on the team, there is no excuse for Abdullah to break out this year.
