Green Bay — For a couple hours — before news of his delayed flight broke — Steven Jackson Fever set in. The possibility of Jackson visiting Green Bay, even if it was for a Rawlings appearance, triggered Twitter pandemonium.

Since Jackson voided the final year of his contract with the St. Louis Rams this off-season, he has been pegged by fans and analysts alike as a perfect fit in the Green Bay Packers' offense. That may be true. And quite possibly, the fit is Alabama’s Eddie Lacy, Wisconsin’s Montee Ball or another back in the NFL draft.

Or --- gasp! --- maybe the Packers are absolutely fine with what they already have at running back. That’s how the team’s all-time leading rusher sees it, anyways. Ahman Green was adamant. The Packers, he says, have more than enough ammo at running back already in DuJuan Harris, Alex Green, James Starks and Cedric Benson if he’s re-signed.

I really don't think we need to be wasting money or draft picks on a RB.

If we keep him, Cedrick Benson is fine even if he's lost a step. He was really impressive before he went down.
If we don't keep Benson, Harris will be fine if he progresses and we keep Starks as a reliable if predictable backup.
If we don't keep Benson or Harris, I'd rather spend the $$$ on an upgrade on the D line or O line rather than upgrading from Starks to Jackson.

Of course he played behind a line whose left guard and center could pull. The worst thing to happen to the Green Bay running game was the zone blocking system, which we are slowly replacing.

Considering the push, holes, and lack thereof he had to work with, he was quite impressive indeed. I've said it before and I'll say it again - Adrian Peterson would not be a top 3 back behind this line. Top 5, maybe.

1. what is all the amp and dash stuff? "Green Bay — For a couple hours — "
2. I would love to upgrade the RB position but I would like to upgrade the defense more. DE,DT, S, ILB and C all come first. Then RB,TE, WR.
