Draughn still in lead for No. 2 RB job

The Bears running game was not looked good all preseason long. No RB, besides Draughn, has averaged more than 3.4 YPC. The former Raven has 4 carries for 35 yards through 2 games. Albeit a small sample size, Draughn has looked the best in pass protection and receiving as well. It appears the No. 2 job is his to lose. (Chicagofootball.com)
Fantasy Impact:
Draughn is only useful for handcuffing purposes, but he is not a even strong one at that. If Matt Forte were to go down with an injury, there is no guarantee Draughn will have the job all to himself. Most likely the spot would become a dreaded RBBC. So if you take Forte, cross your fingers and hope he stays healthy since the backup situation looks like it will be murky all year long.
