I was discussing this with a Carolina fan...

On the Williams front, I sent a message to Darin Gantt (Panthers beat writer) on Twitter about the rumors and he had this to say:

No talks. Not happening. Bad info. RT @CatalystNX Do you know if Packers-Panthers actually talking (rumored Williams trade) or not?



Take it for what it's worth.

I think if we are talking with Carolina , it would be to acquire Goodson. He is a #3 back and does kick returns and is the receiving back, Thats just my hunch because thats TT's mo.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Yep, grab someone no one really wants. Kind of a bummer if you ask me.

I was hoping to see Ted Thompson break his mold a little bit and show us he felt confident this team was championship material. I'm just thinking he's TOO confident in the 53 + PUP ...

I know. I think he may overconfident in Starks' ability. Aside from the usual difficulties that plague rookie RBs, Starks could injure himself again. I want to believe Starks can be a starting NFL RB from day one, but this just will not happen. (I pray I'm wrong) Ted Thompson drafts a lot of great young talent and, as a result, puts a little too much faith into his draft picks at times. I think Starks could the RB the Packers have been looking for, but he, more than likely, will not be that player right off of PUP. Hopefully Ted Thompson just didn't like Lynch and plans to continue the search, because to leave GB without a #1 quality RB, is a huge mistake...

Thompson's failure or neglect or resistance to make a move doesn't necessarily indicate overconfidence in Starks. It could mean it, but we have no way of knowing.
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Yes certainly, this exact scenario is a reach at best. However, given that Ted Thompson loves to start his young players I wouldn't put it past them. More likely he was just unwilling to part with the pick or didn't like Lynch. I just hope he is not banking on immediate production from Starks, instead of picking up a veteran.

Man, a FOURTH and change for Lynch? Fuck you, TT.

I'm going to laugh if Marshawn Lynch goes down with a season-ending injury sometime around midseason and Packers fans start crowing about how glad they are that Ted Thompson didn't pull the trigger on that trade after all.
