Here's some statistics that raised my eyebrows tonight, but illustrate clearly why the Green Bay Packers drafted Eddie Lacy this past April with the 61st pick of the NFL Draft: The Packers converted 61.1 percent of their third-and-1 rushes (in 2012), down from 70 percent in 2011 and 2010 and 90 percent in 2009.

Suddenly, GB has some serious depth at RB, and I wonder who will make the roster?

IMO, Starks, Green, Lacy, Franklin will make the roster. Kuhn will play FB, Haris, if he gets healthy might be the odd man out.

Im not high on haris - so I hope he's out ... seems like green and starks are even doing well ... 4 seems like a little too many but who knows maybe they paranoid after last year and its injuries.
