Starks didn't play his senior year of college ball in 2009 because he got hurt in August of that year. He didn't play until the last three regular season games in 2010 and then was great throughout the playoff run to the title. Last year he had a problem with ankle sprains and played in 13 regular season games and split carries with Grant (133 carries for Starks, 134 for Grant). He also split carries with Grant in the playoff game. So his last healthy season was his junior year in college, 2008. But as Packers fans, we gotta like the trend. The concern I have is not only he hasn't had an injury-free season in three years, it's that may be compounded if he is asked to carry the load in Grant's absence. What do I predict? All I have is hope that this will be his first complete NFL season and if that happens I'm confident he'll present a good enough running threat for the offense to succeed. </blockquote>
