The Lions are getting Anderson on a very team-friendly Jake Rudock Jersey White , prove-it deal."Now that the C.J. Anderson signing is official, we can finally see what the veteran running back cost the Detroit Lions. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Anderson’s deal is only for about $1.5 million over one season: We still don’t know the exact breakdown of Anderson’s deal, so it’s hard to say what exactly his cap hit will be for the Lions, but that is certainly a relatively cheap deal for a backup running back. Add in the fact that Detroit tried to sign Malcolm Brown to a two-year, $3.25 million deal, and the Lions are actually spending less on a per-year average with Anderson and arguably have the better player. It’s clear the Lions weren’t looking to spend a lot on a backup running back, which likely explains why they didn’t sign Mark Ingram (three years, $15 million) or Tevin Coleman (two years, $8.5 million).Anderson joins Kerryon Johnson ($1.5 million cap hit) and Zach Zenner ($1.05 million) as two very reasonably-priced running backs. In fact, Theo Riddick is very likely to have a higher cap hit in 2019 ($4.6 million) than the other three backs combined. Once we get a full breakdown of Anderson’s contract, we’ll update this post. UPDATE 1: It looks like Anderson can earn a little more based on some incentives: UPDATE 2: Dave Birkett has the full contract breakdown here. Anderson’s cap hit is $1.44 million for 2019. A look at the best and worst performances from the RBs at the NFL Combine."The NFL Combine gives players a chance to showcase their talents in front of the very best scouts the NFL has to offer for all 32 teams. More than just the on-field drills and measurements, the Combine represents a hub of activity where players meet with every team Womens Trey Flowers Jersey , interview privately with some, and talk to the media about their experiences. The 2019 running back class is not a strong one. With no top-tier talent pressing for first-round selection, the mid-tier group is solid but has a lot of folks who are trying to separate themselves from a very big herd. Since it’s RAS season, we’re going to take a look at what the best Combine performances were for running backs, and some of the worst.The BestAlex Barnes, Kansas State Few players helped their draft stock more than Barnes, who was a relatively unheralded back out of a normally strong program in Kansas State. Barnes posted only a decent 40-yard dash of 4.59, which is fine for a guy pushing 226 pounds, but he went on to crush both explosiveness and agility drills. Teams looking for a Latavius Murray type of back may look to Barnes to add some explosion to a backfield that already has an established starter.Karan Higdon, Michigan Higdon was a bell cow for Jim Harbaugh’s Wolverines, but I’m not sure any player further exceeded projections than he did. Few were expecting Higdon to measure fast, and he did. Not many expected his explosiveness to show out, but he did anyway. Looking at a late Day 3 selection for a team with an established backfield Womens Eli Harold Jersey , Karan Higdon helped his stock immensely by showing that he can hang with the best athletes on the field. One ding to his day was his lack of participation in on-field drills, a concern since receiving wasn’t a staple of his game at Michigan and you’d think he’d want to showcase to teams that he could bring it there as well.Miles Sanders, Penn State I’m not sure what’s in the water down in Happy Valley, but Sanders was on fire during measurements. After Saquon Barkley nearly broke the RAS record last year, Sanders was gunning for it all the way, and though he came up short, he still managed to hit marks either above average or elite in every single metric. Sanders was already pretty well thought of in NFL circles, but now there’s going to be fan hype and the certain (but unwarranted) Barkley comps.The WorstElijah Holyfield, Georgia Getting mid-round hype entering the day, Holyfield bombed speed and explosion drills before wisely sitting out of the agility testing. Running a 4.79 is pretty much all you need to do to get teams to turn away. Even power backs are expected to have some kind of speed in case they break free, but you need explosion to do that and Holyfield flubbed that as well. Not a great day and it certainly pushed him further down in Day 3 if not out altogether.Devin Singletary, Florida AtlanticSingletary was one of the guys getting RB1 hype entering the offseason and that continued up until the Combine. With 67 college touchdowns over three seasons, it’s not hard to see why. When he measured in so tiny http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-taylor-decker-jersey , the flags started to go up, and when he ran a 4.66, you could start counting the nails going into that draft coffin. Singletary may still find his way into Day 3, but it’s more likely the Combine pushed him down all the way into the third day of the draft, even in a weak class.David Montgomery, Iowa StateAnother guy with RB1 hype, another bad day. Montgomery showed decent size and poor speed, enough for people to start making Kareem Hunt comparisons. Those ended when he also posted poor explosiveness drills, making such a comp seem kind of silly since it already didn’t fit stylistically. He will probably still hear his name called on Day 2 of the draft, but this wasn’t the Combine performance he likely imagined.
