James Starks...

[rbaloha1]

is also on the trading block as per NFL Network

RT @RapSheet: The #Packers have made it known James Starks is on the trading block. No surprise. They've already drafted 2 RBs.

Alex Green better watch out too.

Alex Green better watch out too.

Yup. The Packers are tired of the bs.

[Bretsky]

If they can get a 7 they'd probably take it. Starks ran tough when he was in there but he's just not in enough

[Patler]

Can't see how they could have much trust in Starks at this point. Green, Harris and the two rookies fill the RB needs.

[wist43]

The RB picks don't help us much... effectively status quo at the position for the past few years.

Lacy is Benson
Franklin is Harris

Big whoop.

[Bretsky]

Lacy is better than Benson and Franklyn is much better than Harris
Hell if I know we could have Franklyn in round 4 I'd MUCH rather have taken a defensive stud at 61

[smuggler]

IMO Franklin replaces Green, not Harris. We'll see.

[rbaloha1]

At least the healing process is speeded up.

IMO its Lacy, Green, Franklin, Harris and Kuhn.

[ND72]

Now to replace Kuhn, dude sucks.

[rbaloha1]

Now to replace Kuhn, dude sucks.

good all around player. emergency emergency backup

please do not laugh -- the nfl network ranked kuhn in the top 100 of all current nfl players -- no joke

[Pugger]

The RB picks don't help us much... effectively status quo at the position for the past few years.

Lacy is Benson
Franklin is Harris

Big whoop.

Then should we have skipped drafting these kids and just resigned Benson to go along with Harris? Or was there another RB you liked better in this draft that was available when we picked Lacy?

[woodbuck27]

IMO Franklin replaces Green, not Harris. We'll see.

I like DuJuan Harris over AJ Green.

The draft is over.There isn't a thing we can do about what happened Saturday. I simply request that you consider what I see. I don't desire to be the bad guy adversarial figure on Packerrats and neither does Wist43, I expect. We just have legitimate concerns based on clear observation.

If you accept that watered down wine is better wine...your excited about the TT method. That method clearly makes no sense to me. It's your choice to accept or reject it in course.

You (any Packerrat) accept it and I'll choose to not accept it. Thank You.

Solid football talent is developed in solid football programs. Not in some smaller school programs.

I think TT really imagines he's getting the edge by being sly. He looks for talent in the shadows.The rest of the world uses every available source to evaluate/measure the top school talent. TT acts mysterious/sly.

Then he goes in a whole different direction. He flips/toss's a wrench into moving parts by assisting San Fran. Allowing San Fran to trade up not once but two times! WOW "Ohh you want a better graded prospect...by all means. Let me oblige."...that amazed me.

You hate the BEARS. You hate the Vikings.

Well guess what. I dislike... the 49ers. I don't want TT helping the 49ers in any way manner or fashion.

Was that some trickery on behalf of TT? Does that really make sense to any of you here?

It's not all bad. TT tried to look after Aaron Rodgers better. I imagine that TT was under the gun to do so. Think about the timing of the Aaron Rodgers Conttract announcement. You don't have to be a real bright bulb to see alot of what was happening behind the scene there. Aaron Rodgers is going to express his needs RE: everything and winning >>>to MM>>>to TT. His ego isn't small.

On the upside:

We have solid RB talent... finally. It's the fricken OL that has to get it together and get a break healthwise. We may elect to pray madly for health and decent luck.

Over the course of time.The real bonus comes from drafting solid talent. You won't get there by continually trading down. Especially when a draft is so berift of decent talent after the fourth round. Will TT get the message and that common sense fact?

I really doubt it. TT loves to play with the draft. His playing this time left us without certain needs.

ie We still need help for BJ Raji and Ryan Pickett.

WE still need Ryan Pickett's replacement.

We still need (maybe?) BJ Raji's replacement.

Did this draft offer a contingincy plan for the fact that FIVE (5) men on our DL roster are in the final year of their contract?

Did TT find a replacement for a possible moving on CB X 2 in Tramone Williams and Sam Shields? I mean a very talented possible fit to replace one of those teo CB's?

We still need that solid SILB.

We still need at Center.

Did we get that strong hitting safety we all see that we need? I saw solid safety candidates for upgrades. My eyes work just fine.

I know it's early and each day it gets better. I'll study all I can on every pick. I'll find a couple of guys to pull for; feel badly when their cut.

I'll survive not understanding TT. You know why?

GO PACK GO !

Like Franklin but the Oregon rb is a better big play runner imo.

Nonetheless the running game was upgraded big time allowing AR to call more running plays at the line of scrimmage.
