very doubtfull IMO, unless they can resign him for next to nothing
i think the bigger question is, do the packers resign eddy lacy after next season? some teams are willing to pay huge amounts of money for star running backs, other teams seem to think they are a dime a dozen. i don't know if i see the packers giving lacy a monster deal

Maybe, the Packers highest paid RB is Starks right now at $1.8M for 2015. The Packers really have no money invested in the RB position and Lacy is still on his rookie contract. They could afford him at a more reasonable number but it all comes down to what TT is willing to spend on the position.Originally posted by Tony Oday View PostIs he going to be a Packer next year?But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

Offer Starks another 2 year contract and let him shop around for a better deal. He's a quality backup who has proven he can be a capable spot starter.
I like Lacy and understand he starts every season slow but between his injury history, running style, and weight (is he 260 now?) I don't know if he'll be effective/available halfway through a second contract. Drafting good RBs in lower rounds is possible in the current NFL.

260? he doesn't look any heavier than lynch (215) and leveon bell (240). 215 for lynch really seems off. lacy's at 234.Originally posted by run pMc View PostOffer Starks another 2 year contract and let him shop around for a better deal.

Bell has lost a considerable amount of weight since being drafted. He's closer to 220-225 these days....you really don't think Eddie looks heavier than him? Eddies pushing 240 plus to my eyes.Originally posted by gbgary View Post260? he doesn't look any heavier than lynch (215) and leveon bell (240). 215 for lynch really seems off. lacy's at 234.

Well I just guaranteed Starks doesn't get re-signed, I bought his Jersey.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive.
