By no means am I saying Starks is on the same talent level with this, but I think James Starks running style reminds me of how Adrian Peterson runs. Very upright, and powerful. I don't think he's as fast or powerful as Peterson. Just the style of running reminds me of him at times.

Somebody else compared him to Eddie George. They all have that same style.

The closest style that Starks reminds me of is Eric Dickerson.. right down to how he leaned into contact.. bounced back upright and continued on.

Like Zero.. not comparing the talent level.. just the style.

Although in all the highlight vids I tried to include.. Dickerson had wide open holes to run though.. but he would similarly dip into contact than erect straight up again.

A person would think that after watching The Packers in 2010, you would come to realize that having Grant, Starks and Jackson back is a good thing.

How many of you were ready to replace A. R. with Matt Flynn after the New England game? No-one I hope.

B. Jackson is invaluable as a blocker and passing down back, he has proven that when he doesn't have to worry about being the every down back, that he is the best at what he does. I don't know if he will be back next year, that's for Ted to decide. I hope he is.

R. Grant has proven what he can be when healthy, a solid, not flashy rb that's gonna get you 1200+ yds a year. There are quite a few NFL teams who would love to have a guy like him.

Starks was and hopefully continues to be pretty damn talented himself, but he is still unproven whether he can carry the load for a whole season.

JMHO but I think Ted and Mike will cover their butts and keep all 3, sure hope so.
