It comes down to Stewart, Murray, or Lynch. Since this is PPR, I'm eliminating Lynch because of his lack of catches (I think last year represents his absolute ceiling, even though I think he can get close). Murray has the injury concerns. Stewart, even though he is in a RBBC, he was still #20 in PPR scoring last year, and I don't see him producing under that level, even in Carolina with Deangelo, Newton, and Tolbert around. I see him taking over the starting role this year with an uptick in carries. Either he will be out of Carolina next year, or Deangelo will be gone. Either way, I see him as a top 20 option this season, and the sky is the limit next year and beyond for the next 3-4 years.

CJ Spiller was really the only guy outside of Stewart, Murray, or Lynch that I would give much thought to.

Went Murray because if he stays healthy, top 8 potential for sure. Stewart is still in RBBC from hell and there's no guarantee he'll ever be a lead back.

 
I don't think Lynch is getting enough love. He had a remarkably solid season last year and will be featured just as much this year. If anything he'll get better, select opportuntities with Flynn taking some pressure off him. Last year they stacked the box against the run and he still did pretty darn good. There are plenty of other lolly-gagers like Dez Bryant that you guys rate high, so why does Lynch get the dumpster?

He's definitely worthy of a RB1 designation before Stewart. Lynch was RB11 in PPR PPG last year, and there are several guys ahead of him that won't stay there (Jackson, Best). I would not be surprised at all to see Lynch in the top 12 for the next several years.

Stewart was 24th in PPG and I don't see his numbers changing dramatically this year, even with a trade. Few teams run the ball as heavily has the Seahawks will continue to do and those teams already have good running backs.

Don't forget Lynch is only 25, too.

My concern with Lynch is that he had an ungodly season last year with the touchdown streak, and he still managed to only finish as a low end RB1 (11th in PPG). I don't see him matching that touchdown level, and his lack of use in the passing games puts him at a position where I think RB12 is about his ceiling. At this point, I'm going with the guy who has a higher ceiling than that.I have him on a few of my teams and love him, but I just don't think I would draft him this highly.
 
Lynch had made a career out of building expectations and dashing them. Murray on the other hand broke his foot, im not sure how that makes him injury prone (i get he had college issues but breaking a bone doesnt speak to that).
