Football Gameplan did an extensive 25 minute deep dive into the Lions to preview the 2019 season. They talk about everything under the sun including fantasy, betting and what to expect during the season. Unfortunately, their predictions are going to upset you. Still, it?s a good video if you have the time.

Finally! Johnny Robinson Selected for Enshrinement in the Hall of Fame.
ProFootballJournal

Johnny Robinson was drafted by the Detroit Lions, and for a moment if he had decided to head north he would have been a part of probably the greatest secondary of all-time. Picture for a moment a secondary of corners Night Train Lane, and Dick LeBeau, and safeties Yale Lary and Johnny Robinson....wow! and DOUBLE WOW!

Robinson decided to take his skills to Dallas and be a part of the fledgling AFL with the Texans. His first two years he was the right halfback on offense; which meant he was a flanker to the tight end side (usually on the right), and sometimes aligned in the backfield as a running back. Robinson had a very productive rookie year in 1960 as he gained 1,069 all-purpose yards.
