That if some second round speedburner running backs like Felix Jones (Yes, I know he’s probably in the precipice of round one), Steve Slaton, or a guy like Kevin Smith [Obligatory Snoogans reference] to start breaking great, the Packers would be dancing the dance of joy.
This is a team that needs three major things. An heir apparent cornerback, an heir apparent tackle, and an Edgar Bennett type in the backfield. And this is not to say that Ryan Grant is at fault nearly as much as Nick Collins, Favre, or Al Harris for the Super Bowl loss. The man is shiftier than an overactor in a spy movie.
But imagine a one two-punch of Grant-Rashard Mendenhall or Grant-Jonathan Stewart. That’s thunder and lightning. [Rookie running back] sets them up, and Grant cuts back for 60 yard gains of awesome power! This would be the greatest show on tundra.
But this Postulate is probably just spitballing. Aqib Talib is probably more likely. Not that I mind. This draft is filled to the brim at running back. And a Jacob Hester or a Matt Forte in a later round would do the job just fine.
Yeah, I guess it was just time for me to be a big dreaming dreamer.
(Still, a J.R. Stewrant backfield would be awesome!)
