Mixed feelings on this. Since I hate the Seahags immensely, I'm now hoping he spends his $5.5MM on food. Lots of food.
I have opened a candy shop in the greater Seattle Metro area.
Seems like a good dude. I wish him well when we're not playing him. Between his weight issues, ankle, and whatever Seattle was willing to pay him, it just wasn't going to work out to stay. If the Packers really considered him a core player, they would have worked harder to keep him. MM said he was a core player at the combine or thereabouts, but ultimately, the guaranteed money has to fit the team's plans. You'd love to re-sign most of them, but just can't.
So, Adrian Peterson on a two-year deal? Draft a decent RB and let him learn from Peterson?
I knew he was going to be more expensive than most people on this board would admit, and that the chances of his return were slim to none. I don't think Lacy is a major loss, but I don't like seeing him go to one of Green Bay's major competitors.

Source said #Packers and #Vikings offered Lacy similar contracts. Chance to be in a run-first offense might have been deciding factor.
Well that sucks
No idea if this is true or not...
RB Eddie Lacy visited Sea (his new team), Minn and GB in the last wk. For one of the three teams Lacy weighed 267. Listed last year at 234.

Ugh...this one bothers me. Montgomery and a motivated Lacy would have been a fun backfield to watch. I'm surprised he got almost 6 million from Seattle. Will really be pissed if he comes in lean and ready to run with Seattle.
No way Eddie comes in lean. He'll drop some weight, then put it all back on and lose games again because of it. Meh, I'm ok with him leaving. He has talent, but he's pissing it away due to being unable to control his weight.
Hard to place a value on a guy who doesnt take care of himself and is never available to play half the time.
Awesome!!!!!
Fat Boy needed to be sent packing.
I googled Chinese restaurants and there are at least 10 near there are at least 10 near the stadium #chinafood #Feastmode
You know, that's really fucking shitty.
Which team could have leaked that? Doubt it was his new team. That leaves two choices. Was it a Queens reported that was told this?
Nope. It's was green bay that leaked this. They're trying to cover their ass.
After two years of no one talking about his exact weight, the teM the offered him most the second exact money (despite his weight I guess) decides to announce to the whole world that yes, he is a big fat fuck.
Classless by green bay imo
That sucks. Was hoping he'd come back. Personal favorite of mine, but I also think him and Montgomery would have been quite fun to watch.
Seattle will be going all out Feast Mode with Eddie in the backfield. He will also play offensive line as needed, thus the higher contract.
New nickname for Eddie is Marshawn Lunch. Will Seattle's offensive line be able to open a hole big enough for Eddie to run through?
oh well.
The Packers don't need no stinking running backs. Not with stubby "committed" to the run.
