iirc, they said he hurt his shoulder on the first series

Wynn's hold on the job was tenuous at best. GB coaches don't necessarily believe in the RBBC and have building up Grant up to this point.Grant = GB starter
he was lacking a bit in the elusiveness
Yup. He runs hard and he did a very nice job of moving the pile. He doesn't go down on initial contact. I think Wynn has a little more "wiggle" but Grant really showed me a lot tonight with how hard he ran. Granted, it was against a putrid run defense but he took some punishment and kept driving his legs. That was impressive.
Yeah, I agree. ARE YOU LISTENING, THOSE WHO ARE IN FRONT OF ME IN MY LEAGUE FOR THE WAIVER WIRE? He's just another guy; they're bound to go back to Wynn and rbbc...Justin Fargas is worth a whole lot more!(God, I hope they believe it...)
There it is...
A bit Droughns-esque (when he had the breakout year in Denver).
He reminded me a bit of a young Dorsey Levens though he isn't the receiver Levens was. And it's not just because he's wearing Levens' old number.
Is because there have been numerous reports from Green Bay's organization that Grant reminds them a lot of Levens, ever since they picked him up?He reminded me a bit of a young Dorsey Levens though he isn't the receiver Levens was. And it's not just because he's wearing Levens' old number.
No, it's because when I watched him run tonight that's who he reminded me of. I'm aware of the reports but this was the first extensive action he's gotten so I hadn't really had the opportunity to judge for myself. But that's the comparison I made and so did several of my friends watching the game with me.Is because there have been numerous reports from Green Bay's organization that Grant reminds them a lot of Levens, ever since they picked him up?He reminded me a bit of a young Dorsey Levens though he isn't the receiver Levens was.

I wouldn't. Especially when it seems as though Green Bay's org has been highly impressed and excited about Grant since they picked him up. Now, giving GB their first 100 yd game since Ahman Green... AS WELL as the fact that Wynn simply isn't durable enough to play at this level and carry the load... ect... I think that Grant is the obvious choice, and if Green Bay commits to running the ball like they are talking about, Grant may be a serious FF player from here on out. Let's not forget how it gets up in Green Bay during the winter months, when passing the ball is all but impossible.
Bingo...thanks
Well at the moment I have Parker, SJax, Gore, Drew, Chatman and Watson, he might make a good RB7 though.
Wow in a three team league I see. Unless its a dynasty then I see how it could happen.
That is pretty ridiculous. If its not a dynasty, dude must have jerry rice as his #1 WR.That said, I like his potential but Im not dropping anyone to get him. Chatman would be the closest guy, and I think he's better trade bait than Grant.But, if I had to chose a GB RB, Itd be him. Doubt he'll be big down the FF stretch (for teams still playing 4 obvious reasons), but he could be for the GB homefield adv. stretch.mdog1967 said:
To be sure, Wynn looked really good in a few earlier games, and was a hot commodity. So we need to see how Grant does in the following week(s).But with the running game very much up for grabs, there's no reason to pick up Grant if it costs virtually nothing. Worst case is that he goes back to the scrap heap in a few weeks, best case is that you have a starting RB for the remainder of the year (and maybe even beyond).
I know it has been listed a pet peeve by some if you throw out the "___ team league" line, but when someone posts that they have 4 of the top 12-15 RB's according to ADP then it is definitely warranted.mdog1967 said:
I think McCarthy keeps naming starters to see how they respond. Wynn could be hurt but he's taken himself out repeatedly since PS with minor injuries and this could be another one. I don't know that it is but it could be.
no, it really isn't. it's probably a dynasty league. get over it.
I was responding to him being the answer to prayers. If it costs nothing go for it but remember next week it could be Morency or Jackson or even Wynn.
7 RB's?the_Truth said:
