Ball would be eligible for the Packers practice squad.
Something is up with Lacy. I'm beginning to wonder if its some kind of behind the scenes drama that hasn't been leaked yet? To me, from the naked eye, it appears that he is falling out of favor with the coaching staff. I don't buy the overweight/out of shape/injury crap one bit. There is something else going on IMO. This has been going on for the whole year, sheesh!
Luckily good RB's are a dime a dozen. So it wont be any sweat off my back if Lacy's days are numbered here. Crockett looked promising and Starks is Starks. Hell, we won a damn SB with Brandon Jackson at RB. Maybe Montee Ball can bring something to the table and get revived being back in Wisconsin.

Lacy is great when the blocking is good, but it would be nice to have a Dion Lewis/Sproles type back who would be a completely different change of pace and has the quickness to elude defenders in a way that Lacy can't.It would be sweat off my back if Lacy's days are numbered. He has been absolutely critical to balancing this offense the last couple of years. It can be really easy to forget how big of a weakness our run game was for years before Lacy was drafted. Yes, we won the Super Bowl, but remember, Starks was on a real hot streak during the playoffs. Starks is really a better #2 anyway. I like him as he is, but he hasn't shown the ability to be a true #1.

That's an interesting misstatement for a Packers fan to make and doesn't make your point RBs are a "dime a dozen": According to nfl.com, in the four 2010 postseason games, Jackson ran the ball a total of 6 times for 28 yards and caught 5 passes for 64 yards. It was Jackson’s ineffectiveness as a RB that led to fans’ “demanding” the acquisition of Lynch and Starks starting all four postseason games.Hell, we won a damn SB with Brandon Jackson at RB.

You can quote me. I'm not because we know how good he can be.And you're not because...?
This post was made in jest, right?And you're not because...?
I wish Lacy had more heart or the professionalism to make sure he was at a weight that would benefit his playing-in all honesty, losing an extra 10-15 wouldn't hurt. But I'd much rather see a former 2nd Round receiver working out, because the passing game is what really is garbage.Are you guys really giving up on Lacy this fast? Jeeze....
Here’s my justification for not giving up on Lacy:Not really. If the answer is along the lines of "he's been terrific before", then we need to re-visit those threads that involve high-priced free agents - those guys drew big bucks because of previous performance, and many of them no longer had it, for whatever reason. Sure, no reason they can't figure out what's wrong with Lacy and get him back on track, but I just wondered if there was some justification other than "I know it".
