What Type Of Running Back Will Packers Draft?

Two weeks have passed since Eddie Lacy took an incentive-laden deal with the Seattle Seahawks, a team that will feed him the ball and utilize his punishing style of running. John Schneider’s deal to bring Lacy to Seattle could prove to haunt the Packers long-term if he morphs into Beast Mode 2.0 and reverts to his 2013-2014 form.

While it is understandable that the Packers were disappointed with Lacy’s preparedness and battles with his weight, it seemed he never reached his potential in Green Bay. Based on the Packers’ decision to not re-sign him, it seems they either believed he was a poor fit for their offensive scheme or just did not trust his commitment level.
