the poll said I had to pick one so I picked starks - even thou I figure grant may get the nod ... but IMO if his injury holds him up or if starks just clearly does better then I think starks just slowly ends up taking over.

You can just abstain from the vote by picking "view results." Since there was no tandem pick that's what I did.

From what i've seen, Starks looks just as good receiving as Jackson. So if he can put a good offseason into picking up the blitz and blocking that makes Bjack very expendable. I like the 3rd RB to be a nice ST player or return specialist. considering we can always move Kuhn back to that role if need be.
Could free up alot of extra cash to throw towards a much more valuable Jenkins and Jones.

We are born naked, wet and hungry. Then things get worse.

I'm looking forward to Starks having a full off-season and training camp to prepare. The experience in the playoffs this year in the Packers offense will be help tremendously.

Grant is not faster than Starks. I just watched highlights of both of them. That's just not true.

Starks' running style scares me. Runs high and the ball seems to be out there. I don't think he had any fumbles this year but I still hold my breath every time. He is a good player and I hope he's in a GB uniform for a long time.

I think the biggest difference is Starks' time to top speed, or acceleration, for you smart people out there 🙂 It seems to me like he goes from stand still to top speed faster than Grant, and a LOT faster than BJack. He will hit what is supposed to be a hole, bounce off, and go elsewhere at full sprint in almost no time, instead of waiting for it to open up.

I'm with you on that feeling. Although I think dating back to college, Starks has not yet fumbled.

How many long TD runs has Starks had? Um, zero?

Now check how many long TD runs Grant has had.

Grant is faster. Once he gets away, nobody catches him. He's got football speed, like Jordy Nelson. Jordy's 40 time isn't that good but tell that to a guy who's trying to catch him in the open field.
