The Big 3 are in the league now and ready to go.

Lacy will be playing for the Green Bay Packers and will be in the same division as Adrian Peterson, Reggie Bush, and Matt Forte. He is likely to share carries with Franklin, another rookie tailback out of UCLA. He has the benefit of playing alongside the NFL's best QB.


Ingram will be entering his third year, and it looks like we'll finally be using him right with CSP back and Mark healthy. He is likely to share carries with Pierre Thomas, and Sproles will still be the third down back, but will get carries too.


Trent is the top dog in Cleveland and should finally be healthy. Cleveland didn't really do much to help their problem at Guard, but they picked up UDFA Chris Faulk, who, had he not been injured, could have had first round potential at Tackle. The passing game is bound to be improved, so look out. However Trent does play the Steelers, Ravens, and Bengals twice a year, though they may not be as strong defensively as they once were.


Most carries : This one is easy, Trent is the only guy not expected to share carries, so he'll obviously have the most.

Most yards : Again, Trent being the only guy not sharing carries gives him an advantage here.

Most TDs : I wanna say Trent, but to be different I'm gonna say Lacy rushes for 11 on the ground, but Richardson will have the most total, 10 on the ground, 2 in the passing game.

Rank the YPC :

Trent - 4.5
Lacy - 4.3
Ingram - 4.2


To me it looks like Trent is poised to have the best year, but he's the only one not sharing touches. That doesn't really mean he'll be the most effective though, so I suppose a better question is who will be the most effective?

I'll again have to say Trent. Lacy has Rodgers, Ingram has Brees. Trent has...Weeden.

I'll be unpopular here and say Franklin is better than Lacy. I watched a lot of UCLA this year(I'm up late and watch a lot of Pac-12) and Franklin is really good. Plus, the Packers are going to pass.


Trent


Ingram






Lacy

YPC

Lacy
Trent
Ingram

I know nothing about NFL teams, so I'm basing this on the fact that Lacy crushed the other two at Bama on YPC. He did this playing behind basically the same OL and against the same competition.

I don't know, I'm just hoping that at least 1 has a break-out pro bowl type season
