Jordan Howard adds competition to the Bears' backfield

The Chicago Bears are hopeful they found another middle-round steal in Jordan Howard. After letting Matt Forte walk and missing out on CJ Anderson, the Bears needed to fill a need at the RB position. They selected Jordan Howard in the fifth round (No. 150). Howard has some injury concern, but ran for 2,800 yards and 22 touchdowns over his last two seasons. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact:
Jeremy Langford owners in keeper and dynasty leagues are in trouble. Jordan Howard will have a chance to push Langford who was average at best last year. Langford had eight drops and only averaged 3.6 ypc. Look for this backfield to start with a 70/30 split in Langford's favor, but any slip up and Howard could easily cut into those carries more.
