Me too. I still say go get Murray. That's one less home for the $18M man....

I'm glad we didn't get Lacy either, but I will say that it's another "loss" for our organization this FA period. We spent the better part of the weekend and failed to close the deal...
So far, we've lost on K'Waun Williams, Eddie Lacy, Ricky Wagner, Matt Kalil, Alshon Jeffrey, T Pryor, N Foles and D Peko...I seriously hope we don't lose out on Nickell Robey-Coleman or L Murray, too...
Although you can't win the Super Bowl or make the playoffs in March, you can certainly set yourself up poorly for the the Draft and the season by losing in March...

You're assuming we wanted to sign Lacy...I wasn't. I think we were just kicking the tires. There are better options out there including Murray who is in today. We threw a multi-year deal by Jeffrey at the end...which was presumably less for next year than what he'll make on his one year deal. I think we were just seeing if long term security could sway him. I would have loved to have Wagner...but damn...$9M per year for a Right Tackle?

Sounds like dedication to me..... and some people wanted this guy
Green Bay writer @bobmcginn says Eddie Lacy was weighed at 267 pounds in the past week after last year listed at 234.

Sounds like a $5m payout for Refrigerator Perry at the goal line to me... A few more pounds and we're getting into Jared Lorenzen or Len"whale" White territory...

The guy knows he's interviewing for a job and comes in at 267....no wonder the Vikings didn't sign him. Now that he's signed....he can let himself go...

Refrigerator Perry is exactly what came to my mind.
