C.J. Anderson 2019 Outlook
The Lions signed Anderson to a one-year deal this offseason to replace LeGarrette Blount as the backup to Kerryon Johnson. Blount wound up starting half the games in 2018 but averaged a meager 2.7 yards per carry and looked every bit like a 32-year-old back with high mileage. The good news? Anderson is younger, cheaper and fresher than Blount. Remember, Anderson ran 89 times for a whopping 5.5 yards per carry after the Rams literally signed him off his couch to provide relief to Todd Gurley late last year. While he benefited from a great O-line in Los Angeles, Anderson also ran for more than 1,000 yards and 4.1 yards per carry for the Broncos in 2017 behind a line coached by Jeff Davidson, who now happens to oversee Detroit's ground game. Bottom line? On 760 career carries, Anderson is averaging 4.5 yards a run. As MLive.com's Kyle Meinke put it, "He might not look the part all the time, but Anderson has played it wherever he has been." And if Anderson isn't effective, Zach Zenner, who averaged 4.8 yards per carry last year, will still be around. What's more likely, though, is that Anderson is more capable at 28 years old and 760 career carries than Blount was at 31 with 1,341.
