Gone are the days of the RB who averages 30 - 35 touches a game.
The Packers are going to need both these guys, plus a Brandon Jackson( or BJ type).

Ryan Grant stays healthy, he will be the starter, contrary to the views of some, RG is a tough one cut, grind it out type of guy who has averaged 1200+ yds when healthy.

James Starks is going to be a star, but he does need to improve his blocking skills, also teams will have a little film on him after last years playoff run, so he will not be surprising anyone.

Not a bad thing to have more than one option at starting RB.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I've played several games with James Starks in Madden and he never got caught from behind!!!

Okay, seriously, I know what you're saying, but I wonder how many times he's broken one and he was caught from behind? I don't recall any, not saying there wasn't, just haven't seen any. I could see how he'd be caught from behind because I think he kind of runs bow-legged... if that makes sense. It's almost like he's stomping down hard, rather than being fleet of foot.

Seriously???

A - 1 for my first post?

I really don't give a cr*p about the #s (as evidence by my - 1 ing myself in the "Packers take time to help sick kids" thread), but I do try and figure out which posts have generated negative feedback so I can improve next time, but this one has me stumped.

If whoever -1'd me was just messing around, that's fine, but if you really had an issue with the post I'd truly appreciate knowing why, and maybe I can avoid repeating it next time.

He probably used up most of his -1s available from the other thread...

It would be kinda nice if you could see who was de-slapnutting you on a post...

What map? When I click on the number, it just says something like "about 4 hours ago."

beast (1h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (6h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (6h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (7h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (8h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (8h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
