Eddie Lacy frustrates fantasy owners for 2nd straight week
It might be a good time to buy low on the Packers No. 1 running back.
Christian Petersen
The Green Bay Packers were trailing 21-3 in the second quarter, so they were playing in catch-up mode for a good amount of the game. Lacy and the run game became phased out after a while, even in goal-line situations.
Fantasy impact: It’s easy to be frustrated with Lacy’s year so far, but surely owners are overreacting already. The Packers have played two teams with strong run defenses, leaving Lacy little room to run.
If you’re looking for running backs to target in trades, Lacy is a prime buy-low candidate. His numbers are going to vastly improve. Next week he faces another good front four from the Detroit Lions, but his schedule gets easier after that point. Stick with Lacy and you’ll eventually benefit from it.
