The Facts: After not offering a contract to Matt Forte, the Bears added running back Jordan Howard in the fifth round of the draft to a crowded backfield that includes 2014 fourth-round pick Langford and 2013 fourth-round selection Ka'Deem Carey. Last season Langford rushed for 537 yards and a team-high six touchdowns on 148 carries, while Carey added 159 yards and two TDs on 43 attempts. "We like where Jeremy's at," Loggains said. "He needs to continue to develop. There are things he can do a better job of in the passing game. We still like our other backs. Ka'Deem Carey finished strong for us last year. We obviously drafted a back. We're excited about getting Jacquizz Rodgers back as well, getting him healthy."

Diehards Line: The Bears see Howard as a physical north/south runner who can wear down defenses. The 6-foot, 230-pounder looks to be an ideal complement to the fast and elusive Langford. Teams John Fox coached in Carolina and Denver generally employed a backfield-by-committee approach. Asked how the Bears intend to share the workload, Loggains said: "We're going to do what each player does well. Sometimes, maybe the hot hand gets the carries. Sometimes it's 30, sometimes it's 10. It depends. Each game plays out differently." That's something fantasy owners interested in Langford are going to have to watch closely this summer.
