Mikel Leshoure - Done for the Year (Torn Achilles)

Mikel Leshoure is out for the season after tearing his Achilles' tendon in Monday's practice.
Leshoure was expected to serve as a power back and short-yardage complement to starter Jahvid Best. Now the second-round pick is facing a full year of rehab after suffering one of the most severe injuries an athlete can have. With only Maurice Morris and Aaron Brown left as backups pending a possible free agent addition or trade, Best's projected touches get a nice boost. He could also even see some goal-line work.

Upgrade J. Best but will be stay healthy?

That's not good for the Lions. They better hope Best has a good year.

another reason to never draft before September
Wonder if any "big" names will go down this year. I still have nightmares of drafting Vick and Chad Pennington the year both broke their legs in preseason

I think this is not so great news for Best. In order for him to have agood season, he needs someone to take some of the pounding. Now he is really the main guy so I see him getting hurt, yet again.
