Fantasy Profile: DeMarco Murray, RB, Philadelphia Eagles
The best fantasy running back in 2014 switched teams in the offseason and is now in rival city Philadelphia. Will DeMarco Murray be able to repeat his 2014 production? To start, Murray has more competition for carries with Darren Sproles and Ryan Matthews in town. Sure, this will give Murray needed rest, but he also can’t get your team any points when he is on the sideline. Also, history is not kind to running backs who lead the league in rushing attempts the prior season. Murray is very talented, and he is definitely a top ten back. However, repeating as the top back in 2015 is unlikely. That said he will likely be drafted extremely high in your fantasy league.
