    I didn't know lacey was brought in for a visit. I know we have two back just like him but I really would be happy if we grabbed him in the second. I wouldn't be opposed to taking two rb in this draft. I know we need a wr but what we have now will be good if we can get a true franchise rb and I think lackey is that guy. If lattimore didn't have the injury issues he would be awesome could you imagine if they grabbed both lackey and lattimore. I really want to return to old school smash mouth Steelers football. I'm not saying take the ball out of Ben's hand but how about a 50 50 split

    I don't think Lacey is as impressive as Mark Ingram was, and Ingram as a pro is just eh? I don't know? I think I would look at someone else?

    Yeah I probably wouldn't get too gaga over Lacy. I don't think he would be there at #48 anyways, and #17 is way too high. Also, he ran behind one of the greatest college Oline's ever assembled, IMO. I know its kind of a need, but I have no problem with a Redman/Dwyer combo. If our Oline could ever stay healthy, I think we would see results from our 2 current horses.

    I see Lacy as better than Ingram, but def not as good as Richardson... and I've seen that opinion in some others too. I'm a fan of lacy's but because of how deep this draft is I wouldn't mind passing on him.

    I think he'll be there at 48... Just a hunch.

    Lacy is better than Ingram he's bigger and faster.
