[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 709891, member: 7261"] I have never once said that there shouldn't be concerns about Lacy and his conditioning. But yes, there were people in this forum, stating he was fat, out of shape, couldn't finish a run and his weight was the reason for his ankle injury. Statistically, he was having a good 2016 and for those blaming his season ending ankle injury strictly on his weight gain, I was merely pointing out that I don't feel that was the only factor. My desire to see Lacy back is motivated by the following: [LIST=1] [*]Packers current state at RB. Monty and that is it. Crockett is an ERFA and Michael is a UFA. If people don't have some concerns about Monty, they should. [*]The Possibility of signing Lacy at a low price, no guaranteed contract. Not interested in him otherwise. [*]The mess we saw in 2016 at the position. Lacy goes down, Packers scramble to find a replacement. [*]The potential upside of Lacy and knowing where he is in that progress early enough (August) to shape your roster. [/LIST] I am not advocating to sign Lacy and then be content. The Packers still should draft a RB mid round and do their usual vetting of UDFA's. I just don't see why you wouldn't sign a guy right now, that could [B]potentially[/B] be a big contributor at a the low no guaranteed contract. Only way I don't sign him if I am TT is if there is no hope for him getting into shape, his price is too high or TT would prefer the potential compensatory pick by letting him walk. [/QUOTE]
