DeMarco Murray Runs Over Giants For Big Fantasy Boost
DeMarco Murray was a force to be reckoned with against the Giants on Wednesday night. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy Impact: Some analysts were wary of drafting Murray early this season due to his short resume and injury history. Well, it's safe to say he silenced most of his critics for now. The second-year running back ran all over the Giants on the road, often looking for contact wherever he could find it. His 48-yard burst in the third quarter proved how dangerous he can be even when a play is going nowhere at first. As long as Murray stays healthy, he can be an elite fantasy running back.
