  • Starks Re-signed

    Just saw it on a headline; nothing in the JSO yet.

    Per an "ESPN source" via Wilde and Ryan Wood.

    I hope our new RB coach can help cure his fumblitis.

      In fairness, his fumbling problem spanned just a five game period.

        The deal #Packers RB James Starks agreed to is for two years.

        Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 17m17 minutes ago
        The #Packers and RB James Starks reached an agreement for him to return, as @caplannfl said. It's 2 years for $6M, source said.

        Not bad for Starks. What is the veteran minimum?
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          $885,000 in 2016 for 7-9 year vets.

            How much money left on the cap? We need about $5M for rookies and TT always carries an extra $2M-$3M to get him through the season. I think the money has almost run out.

              $15 million+ before Starks.

                Assuming not much funny money in Starks deal, that leaves around $12M. That leaves about $4-5M to play with (the rest will be used on the rookies and a buffer going into the season).

                  Good news; I guess. I guess I've become fairly non committal on Starks. It seems like there are always RB's out there to find.
                  TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

                    Weird. First time ever that I bought a jersey and the guy came back.

                      Maybe he should wear those arm pads that Ahman Green used to wear....whether it was actually physical or mental...they did help.

                        " ...Packers re-signed RB James Starks to a two-year, $6 million contract.

                        Starks visited the Patriots last week and also had been talking with the Dolphins in recent days. But he's coming back as the 1B to Eddie Lacy's 1A. If Lacy doesn't come back in 2016 in better shape than he was last season, Starks obviously could be in for a larger role with Lacy in a contract year... "

                          since they didn't do anything to get better at the position they pretty much had to sign him.

                              To me his signing is just insurance. I have a feeling we'll draft a RB in one of later the rounds next month.
