    I think we should sign Eddie Lacy. His knock has been his weight. He still reminds me of Bettis. I think he could enjoy success behind our O-line.

    I know Benny Snell may be that guy, but Eddie Lacy did have quickness. I like the idea of a big back like him getting in the open field with our O-line. If he’s available, he may be worth a shot.

    So does he come at the vet minimum? And if he does, isn’t that reason enough to not get him?

    James Conner also has quickness and is a big back as well. I would give Benny here the benefit of the doubt. He is a short yardage specialist back. If he can develop his receiving skills, he will be invaluable.

    There are way too many pizza joints in Pittsburgh. He would come to camp at 375 lbs. A nick name Brick Oven still isn't as good as the Fridge.

    Why Lacy? He's always out of shape, doesn't run hard, really only in it for the pay check at this point. It really doesn't make sense.

    He couldn't stay in shape, and had quite a few injuries, not interested.

    Snell. But see this is what I mean by there was other options to use 4-6 round picks to get back into the 2nd and get better players.

    If you the Steelers message board to want Lacey you need to jump in the Hot Tub Time Machine and go back to 2013.

    Round is a shape. Lacey is done. Snell can do what Lacey can and he is 5 or 6 years younger and at a better price.

    No thanks, I like our RB's. I just hope the MT and Fichtner know how
    to use them. I have my doubts.
