Scouting report

GB RB Eddie Lacy - Week 4, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at San Francisco
Lacy made it through last week and had 10 carries for 46 yards, adding three catches for another 41 yards. He's probable to play this week and could be primed for a big game against the 49ers, who have allowed five rushing touchdowns in the past two weeks after slamming the door on Adrian Peterson in Week 1. The past two games were on the road, but the 49ers have been exposed the past two weeks. Lacy should be a strong start this week.

Week 3 vs Kansas City
Lacy saw just three carries last week before leaving with an ankle injury. He's been receiving treatment this week, but we won't know his status for this one, perhaps right up until game time. That makes it tricky since the Packers play Monday night. If you have James Starks, you can afford to play the waiting game. If not, you might have to go with another, safer option. The matchup isn't a great one, anyway, with Kansas City having allowed just 152 rushing yards to running backs on 41 carries in its first two games.

GB RB Eddie Lacy - Week 2, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs Seattle
Lacy got 21 touches last week - 19 carries and two catches - which was a strong start. He turned those into 98 total yards (85 rushing, 13 receiving) and a score for a solid, if unspectacular start to his season. While their pass defense wasn't up to its usual standards last week, Seattle did limit St. Louis' running backs to 48 yards on 18 carries. Lacy is more talented than what the Rams ran out against the Seahawks last week, but he should find enough ways to get the ball to still be an effective No. 1 starter.

GB RB Eddie Lacy - Week 1, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Chicago
Lacy didn't have his best games last season against the Bears, but he did score in both games. Primarily, Lacy's sub-par games were due to the ease with which the Packers threw the ball in those games. With Jordy Nelson out, the Packers could use Lacy more in the passing game this season, and he looks to be a great start this week. Lacy is poised to be one of the top two or three backs in fantasy football this year and this will be the first step.

GB RB Eddie Lacy - 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
A fantastic power runner, Eddie Lacy became a factor in the passing game as well last season, catching 42 passes for 427 yards and four scores. When you add that kind of production for a 1,000-yard back who plays in an offense that almost assures him double-digit scores each season, you've got a special fantasy back.

Fantasy Downside
How do you lose track of a 230-pound running back? That's the question Lacy owners had to ask at times last season, as he had 10 games with fewer than 15 carries. James Starks isn't a bad No. 2 option, but there's no way he should be splitting carries with Lacy 60-40.

Bottom Line
You can live with the frustrations of Starks stealing some carries as long as Lacy continues to average 100 total yards and score nearly a touchdown per game. He's clearly a first-round fantasy running back in all formats. But you will be cursing Mike McCarthy at times.

GB RB Eddie Lacy - Week 20, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Eddie Lacy Playoffs vs. Seahawks
Eddie Lacy continued his strong play of late with 101 yards on 19 carries last week against Dallas, adding one catch for 10 yards. He did have an asthma flare-up during the game that cost him some carries but that's not been a major problem. Lacy had just 34 yards on 12 carries and three catches for 11 yards in the opener at Seattle. I would expect a better game this time around, but it will still be tough sledding.

GB RB Eddie Lacy - Week 19, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Eddie Lacy Playoffs vs. Cowboys
With Aaron Rodgers hurting and the weather conditions not especially conducive to throwing the ball a lot, Eddie Lacy should see a 20-plus carry game. He's been very effective this season when he's gotten 15 or more carries this season, and the Packers were likely limiting his touches to get him into this part of the season healthy. Dallas' run defense was 29th in the league in our adjusted rankings. Lacy should have a very solid game. He's a top four option this week.
