Detroit Lions - Team Notes

The Lions will have cameras in their draft room this weekend for the first time -- one of a bunch of teams to have this broadcast on the NFL Network.
The Lions have typically been a secretive team since Bob Quinn took over as general manager, so this is a bit of a change in Detroit.

BackCAST 2017.
FootballOutsiders

Last year, Football Outsiders introduced "BackCAST," a metric that projects the likelihood of success for running back prospects available in the NFL draft. BackCAST follows "Speed Score," which evaluates running backs based on 40-yard dash time and weight.
Like Speed Score, BackCAST uses 40-yard dash time and weight in its projections, but it also includes college statistics from each prospect that correlate to NFL success.
BackCAST also projects whether each running back is likely to be heavily involved in the receiving game, or is more of a "ground-and-pound" back.
