Eddie Lacy getting more and more reps in camp

Aug 07, 2013

Two days after he rumbled for 65 yards on eight carries in the Green Bay Packers' intrasquad game, rookie running back Eddie Lacy was the featured back in practice. Lacy lined up as the starter in at least two team drills and easily had the most snaps of those competing for the halfback job.

Lacy got about three snaps to every two James Starks and Johnathan Franklin received and continued to display an upward curve. It was probably as much work Lacy has received in relation to the others and clearly showed he has left questions about his weight and fitness behind him.

Fantasy Impact:

Lacy figures to be the top fantasy back in Green Bay given his ability to run the ball and wear down opponents in the 4th quarter. Johnathan Franklin is a threat, but he's been struggling in pass protection, so he may have a minor role with Lacy as the lead back. Lacy is a good RB3/RB4 type with upside.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo plans to play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams despite his sprained foot, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Guerendo, who is listed as questionable, insists he "feels good," sources said.

Fantasy Impact:

We're projecting Patrick Taylor as the next man up in the 49ers' version of running back roulette *if* Guerendo is forced out, as he easily has the most familiarity with the team. Abanikanda can be stashed if that's not the case, but shouldn't be in starting consideration if Guerendo does indeed miss Week 15.

Otherwise, consider the fourth-round rookie a fantasy RB2.

— The 49ers ruled out LT Trent Williams (ankle) and S Malik Mustapha (chest), but RB Isaac Guerendo (foot) is questionable. So is Dre Greenlaw, who was full today.
— The Rams ruled out TE Tyler Higbee (knee) and Cobie Durant (chest).

Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Related Players: Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

This doesn't really impact Nacua or Kupp either way, but Atwell could log a little extra work here. Consider him a very deep league WR5.
