  • Pagano says Ballard is 'lead guy': Vick Ballard has company in the Colts' backfield with Donald Brown, Delone Carter and rookie Kerwynn Williams, but he still stands as the primary rusher heading into training camp according to head coach Chuck Pagano. "It's always nice to have a couple guys, a change of pace guy," he said. "But certainly at the end of the year with Donnie hurt and the way Vick came on and the way he was running, he was getting the lion’s share of the snaps. At this point, yeah, he’s sitting there as the lead guy. ... Can Vick be an every-down guy? Yeah. Can [Donald Brown] be an every-down guy? Yeah. They are different types of runners and are more than capable on third down, knowing the protections and picking up blitzers and being effective once they get out to catch the football and doing those things out of the backfield."

    Fantasy Analysis
    We'd be floored if Brown dialed it up and became a threatening running back after struggling through injuries and uneven production through his first four seasons (never more than 645 rush yards or five touchdowns in a season). Ballard meanwhile just posted 814 rush yards and three total touchdowns in his first season, effectively cramming all of that into 10 regular-season games. He also got hot toward the end of last season, posting 10-plus Fantasy points in four of his last five games. You might not aim to take Ballard on Draft Day but he'll be among the rushers owners will grab in Round 5 or 6 as the last of the decent No. 2 options.
