2017 NFL? NBA? offseason thread - Give it a few days before coming back

[Clyde Frog]

Lacy played in 49 of 51 games before last year. And last year we ran him into the ground when he shouldn't have been playing because he was the only one playing consistently great rushing over 5 yards a carry.

His weight really is the only issue and he'll probably play well regardless.

If the Jets do land Hightower it really is a nice signing for them. Still young and would be a nice compliment to David Harris, or replacement for that matter.

Yeah but often once RBs start getting injured that train keeps on rolling...  He's at the right age for the issues to begin.

 

[Clyde Frog]

Idk I think a RB getting injured at some point is pretty much inevitable. 26 is still young and it's a one year deal so I don't really think its that big of a concern.

If he plays he will likely play well on a "prove it" deal. If he gets injured you can let him walk instantly.

 

[macbk]

Lacy is only 26? thought he was older.

i just want them to re-sign Hightower

not some loser 3rd/4th string RB

 

[rolaholic]

Same but it makes sense though since Bolden isn't coming back most likely

Apparently Hightower's meeting with Pitt ended already...haven't heard anything about a deal with them either

Apparently Rex is going to be ST replacement for Brandon Bolden.

I played against him all the time.
One game I blew this dude up on a screen and he ate it.
I was like . Not only did he not fumble, the mfer didn't even go down.
He was like 5'8 dunking on varsity basketball.
Tell me this doesn't scream Pats.

@MikeGarafolo: Steelers told Dont'a Hightower their offer is off the table if he leaves, @AKinkhabwala reports. Team doesn't want to be used to scare NE.

Just come on home already

Word? I went to Mesquite.
Rex was always humble. I remember after y'all knocked us out of the playoffs him and a couple other Plano guys came over and bigged me up. I had like 2/3 ints.
But since then I've always rooted for him. I only heard good things about him and it was always respect when we played.
Sidenote: the first game we played y'all at home I was salty af at a sign that read class vs trash on some bring it on steez.
