Graham and not close. It seems like everyone forgot how banged up lacy's lower body got in college. I have a feeling his is gunna have a Doug Martin-like 2nd season.

I love Eddie Lacy to death but his style of running does not equate to career longevity unfortunately. I hope I am wrong but I have to take Graham easily - the same or more production for a longer time.

^^^ this was my thinking as well. Was offered J.Graham for E.Lacy and 2.1 in a 12 team league where T. Wright was my only te (yikes). It leaves me thin at rb with only Forte, M.Ball, and CJ Spiller but I think this is a no brainer accept.

If you think having Forte, Ball and Spiller is being weak at RBs you are as greedy as I am about having good WRs :)

Yeah I snapped it up quick. The owner just selected Donte Moncrief with 2.1.

I will go out on a limb and say that Graham for Eddie Lacy and Donte Moncrief is a "useful" trade for you.

Lol Yeah you just never know with rbs. So hit and miss lol. Thanks guys for the quick feedback. I now have added J.Graham to a team with Stafford, the aforementioned rbs, and Cobb, Harvin, Julio, and Jeffery. I'm pretty stoaked! Happy Father's Day!
