Fantasy Profile: Eddie Lacy, RB, Green Bay Packers
After a slow start to the 2014 season, Lacy began to heat up midseason and finished off the year with nine straight games of more than 100 yards from scrimmage and recorded nine touchdowns during that stretch. This hot finish has fantasy owners salivating as to what Lacy can do if he can produce at that rate over a full 16 games.
Playing in one of the best offenses in the NFL, Green Bay plays from ahead often which allows Lacy to wear down defenses during the second half of many games. An underrated receiver, Lacy can provide 400+ yards and a handful of scores while piling up some hefty rushing numbers. Lacy belongs in the elite backs in the league and should be entrenched as an early first round selection.
