running backs

[Harlan Huckleby]

Davis has potential, but was always in the doghouse. Not sure if that was just because of the fumbles or issues in pass protection.

Guy is only 25. Youthful indiscretions.

We know what we got with Starks. As far as pass protection, Starks only rarely stayed in to block, as pbmax will readily verify. (actually, it could be the game I was obsessed with Starks the Giants weren't blitzing much.)


There is a tiny chance that Starks has been worthless thus far due to a nagging knee problem that has been corrected with a cartilage nip and tuck. And butts may fly out of my monkey.

I think Davis is a good pick up. At least they did something, but I still think they need another RB. It would be nice to let Lacy rest if needed.

[Zool]

The next tackle Starks breaks will be his first. Never seen a RB run so awkwardly as he has this year.

This is it.

All of us (espec. Harlan) know the dangers inherent when a goofy poster starts outing people with their true names and information on the net. The anti-Semitism is bad enough, but trolling peoples info is big time grounds for banning a poster.

He was banned, now is the time to enforce it before he causes even more shit to rain down.

Trying to figure out if the name reference in that rant was intended to be meta.

But probably not.

Have to agree with you on this KY.

A little of that, but more like doxing. Which is strange little scumbags who root around on the net trying to bother people who don't want to be bothered. Like Tank.

He does a little reveal in the post. He spent THREE years trying to scope out who Nutz is? Nutz is cool. Nutz is real. He's a real cool guy and doesn't want to be bugged by a dillweed like Tank.

One of the big reasons this place got started was some goof doxed Harlan on JSO big time. We soon went over to PR to get out of JSO.

Now it's a lot easier than that. We just get rid of the dox artist.

Which would be Tank.

To me Davis is a younger version of Starks. Good move to basically get a guy 5 years younger to do the same thing.

[Carolina_Packer]

Well, I'll be. TT doesn't sign Don Jackson and actually trades with Dorsey for an established player. I always thought that Davis had potential. The year they gacked the playoff game to Indy after getting a big lead, I thought Davis looked good as a fill in. Hopefully he can find some magic. You read conflicting reports about his pass catching ability out of the backfield. He looks the part. Hopefully he can deliver the goods. You never know with Lacy's bum ankle or Starks being out 4 weeks. Davis will certainly get a good opportunity. I'm rooting for him for sure.

starks early years here were good. if davis can do that, or better, it will be cool.

[Rutnstrut]

The talking heads on ESPN and NFL network say Lacy will be a longshot to play Thursday.

so it's new guy and montgomery. yikes! so we're staring 3-3 in the face.

[King Friday]

Davis isn't overly impressive. I agree with the sentiment that he's a younger Starks. He doesn't have the talent to be a capable #1 RB in the NFL.

He's probably fine to use as a stopgap this season, since we don't have many other choices...but the Packers need to do some serious work at the skill positions this offseason.

This guy sounds like shit. This is suppose to be one of the easier spots to fill. And we trade for a 3ypa fumbler

Based on what, just size?

Starks was a beast in college when we drafted him averaging like 7ypc.

This guy is a nothing that had 2 hundred yard games
