I love how we can stick a fork in LT already.
Was he washed up his rookie year when he only ran for 3.6 yard a carry? Or 04' when he can for 3.9 a carry?
No, instead he embarked on a MVP year in 06'...
I think it is important to keep in mind that LT decline started when Norv took over the team.. and started to shift from a power running team to a balanced WC type offense.. one in which they utilized a weapon in open space more in Spores..
Do I think LT is a featured back at this point? No.
Do I think LT could help a team that already has a back in place but needs some depth. Yes I do.
And I personally think LT would be a dynamite back in a shared role.
Concerns I would have before signing LT would be...
Contract demands..
and more importantly does he understand he is a #2 and not become an issue because he is a 2.
If I have doubts about either.. it is a no go.
But color me as a person that has little doubt that LT would help a ball club if the above conditions were right.
