What To Do With The Packer Running Backs?

Packer Running Backs

John Kuhn
Eddie Lacy
James Starks
DuJuan Harris
Rajion Neal

First. our All-Pro Fullback - John Kuhn (Kuhn is a free agent this year)
I would sign him!  A coach on the field.  Personal protector for Aaron.  Blocker for Lacy &
Starks.  Leadership!  And of course, the Packer Fans - Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhn!
Probably has one more year in the tank!

Eddie Lacy - second year became a three down back!  Improving his receiving!  Still running hard.  I thought early in the year ran a little to much side line to side line, but finished strong.  Eddie is definitely a positive weapon in the Packer Arsenal!
246  carries for 1139  yards at 4.6 yards per carry and 9 TD's
42 receptions for 427 yards and 4 TD's

James Starks - A VERY valuable back up!  At times he was lost on the bench!  When Starks had his chance, he was ready!
85 carries for 333 yards at 3.9 yards per carry and 2 TD's
18 receptions for 140 yards

DuJuan Harris - was lost on the bench!  I would have LOVED to see Harris used as the Eagles use Sproles.  Spread him out, a quick screen.  But, for some reason, NO Harris this year!
16 carries for 64 yards.

And Rajion Neal, a practice squad player & unknown quantity!  Nice size at 5'11 - 220 lbs.

So, try to sign Kuhn for one year, and bring them all back.  I would would draft a RB after round 3-4.

Another Packer strength!
