We may have won the SB, but we could still be much better, especially on offense.

Yeah, if we could run screens, we just might be able to win the Super Bowl...

It's funny how we can have one RB that's overrated, and one RB that's underrated.

I'll let you guess which is which...

Yeah, really.

Grant doesn't get caught in the open field. I don't think there's a starting DB in the NFL who can't catch Starks in the open field.

Enough said.

If we're betting with other people's junk why not throw in the right nut too just to sweeten the deal.

I liked this comment, it made me think. I can remember a few times Ryan Grant was caught from behind, but it's very true it's not as often as one might suspect. I haven't seen enough of James Starks to say he can not out any starting DB in the league, but I'd put money on it that I can name off a dozen he'd be able to. I wonder if since there's a lock out, I could get that dozen plus James Starks together to throw a race to prove that statement has any grounds? lol

Starks was good, but I don't remember him making that many people miss, as the author says. He's not that kind of runner. The guy who he reminds me of most is..........Ryan Grant. I think that Grant may actually have a little more breakaway speed, although neither of them is a burner.

Starks is very young, though, and he has major upside. I would love to see him elevate his game and beat out Grant, but I'm not expecting that to happen this season.

As for nerdmann's comment about Grant having to beat out Nance, I almost stopped reading right there. Nance showed nothing last year, although admittedly he did not have a lot of chances.

I think James Starks has more natural instincts with the ball in his hands than Ryan Grant and also I think James Starks falls forward more often than Ryan Grant.

Starks can break tackles better than Grant, but I can assure you any DB in the NFL would much, much rather chase Starks than Grant in the open field. Starks won't beat out Grant for at least one more year and more realistically, as long as Grant hasn't lost a step, Grant > Starks for the next 3-4 years.

B-Jack is possibly our 3rd down back as he's still our best blocking RB and even though Bennett is no longer our RB coach, I can almost guarantee we still take blocking seriously for our RBs.

Nance may or may not be replaced by a draft pick or pickup.

Technically, Jackson isn't "our back" anymore. My hunch is that he won't be back either.
