Ameer Abdullah 2018 Outlook
As NFL.com noted, the Lions are determined to fix their running game, using a first-round pick on a center (Frank Ragnow, No. 20) and trading up in the second round to select running back Kerryon Johnson (No. 43). The team even drafted a fullback in the seventh round (Nick Bawden, No. 237). What all this activity means for Abdullah, last year's primary runner, probably goes without saying. It's hard to ignore the fact that Abdullah has failed to spark the Lions' dormant run game since the team made him a second-round pick in 2014. GM Bob Quinn pointed out that Johnson can run better on the outside than people realize, and with Theo Riddick still in the mix, Abdullah could be battling LeGarrette Blount just to make the team. And don't bet on Abdullah to win that battle. Given all that, a change of scenery is about the only thing that might give Dynasty managers with Abdullah on their rosters some degree of hope. Re-draft owners should move on.

Ameer Abdullah 2017 Outlook
After watching OTAs, Tim Twentyman of the team's official website wrote: "The Lions are a different offense with Abdullah in the backfield. ... He is the best two-way back on this roster, and this offense is noticeably different with him on the field. ..." Abdullah was fully cleared by doctors to return in time for OTAs after missing almost all of the 2016 season with a foot injury. The injury required surgery. Abdullah averaged 5.61 yards per carry before his injury. In his career, Abdullah has started 11 games and has 161 carries for 698 yards and two touchdowns. He also has 30 career catches for 240 yards. The Lions have said they plan on improving the running game this offseason, and Abdullah should be a part of that -- assuming he can stay healthy. Theo Riddick, Dwayne Washington, Zach Zenner and newly-signed Matt Asiata are also in the mix, so Abdullah will need to deliver at the level he did prior to the injury to maximize his playing time. His absence last season and the presence of the other committee backs should make Abdullah a solid value come draft day.

Ameer Abdullah 2016 Outlook
Abdullah is coming off an uneven rookie campaign in Detroit. He began the season with a tremendous statement, tearing off an explosive 24-yard touchdown run on his first career carry. He finished with 50 yards rushing in that game, the best debut by a Lions' draft pick since Barry Sanders. Abdullah faded for a couple months after that, though. Working behind a dreadful offensive line, he averaged just 23.8 yards over the next eight games and never had more than 48. He also was essentially benched for a couple weeks because of fumbling issues and wound up needing shoulder surgery shortly after the season. Overall, as MLive.com understated, there was a lot to dislike about the Lions' rushing attack, which ranked last in the league last year. But Abdullah's upward trajectory offers hope that Detroit can get on track in 2016. And with the team cutting veteran Joique Bell this offseason, Abdullah, who should be cleared for training camp, is expected to be a big part of that process.
