With the release of James Starks, the free-agent departure of Eddie Lacy and the fact that Christine Michael is unsigned, the Packers basically have just Ty Montgomery back from last season.
There is no doubt Montgomery proved he is an NFL running back in 2016, with 77 carries for 457 yards (5.9) in the regular season and three touchdowns, along with 25 carries for 91 yards and two scores in the playoffs (3.64 YPC). But there should also be no doubt that he needs help and no, Aaron Ripkowski won’t do.
Certainly, the draft is deep at the position.
