CanadianFan Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Not a misprint. I'm shocked nobody's posted. The guy is 5'11"! Is there any professional FOOTBALL player who's 5'11 and played at 260lbs? ANYONE? Do you think Carroll can get his positive thinking to make Lacy a svelte 245lb RB by training camp? LOL. I mean Marshawn was 5'11" but he never got north of 230 did he?

Not sure what he played at. I am not saying he isn't a nice guy....I am speaking of his career. He was a good RB out of ND and then ballooned and became a 300 lb RB....I know hes had over 10,000 yards rushing but nearly cost the steelers a SB when he fumbled in the AFC champ game against Indy. A game where Willy Parker was the workhorse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok sorry mods move this to another forum I guess it isn't about Bills lol  "Breadie Lazy" as someone here called him.  I don't think it's as big a gain as being reported. Lacy's combine weight was 231. He listed at 234 at the start of training camp last year, but that may have been if he wore a rubber suit and drank nothing the previous day. No question last year he was bigger than his combine pics show, but he was also in fantastic shape.  I don't think Lacy can be effective at 267 and now we know why GB didn't want him back. WTF did the Sea Snakes sign him to play, OL?  As I understand it, ALynn persuaded McCoy to slim up by having him wear a 10 lb and 20 lb weight vest and work out; McCoy took the point that it would be easier for him to move if he took some weight off. Hopefully someone can do similar for Lacy, because he's undeniably a talented player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
