Look at #3:
3. Unnamed Green Bay Packers rookie running back: I originally had Eddie Lacy written down. His three-down skills and tough running style figure to play very well against the six-man fronts that Aaron Rodgers affords. (If the Packers' offense can make running back Cedric Benson look younger, it can make a rookie look like a veteran.)
Once the Packers drafted Johnathan Franklin in the fourth round Saturday, I started having second thoughts about Lacy. Franklin also has a complete game, and it's possible the two rookies could cancel one another out.
