Maybe its Neal headed to IR and not Starks?

Last game Starks ran the TD for 22.  _________________

They already put Johnny White on IR to make a roster spot for Grant, so there's no need to put anybody else on IR. |

I like Ryan Grant, but don't expect him to make an immediate impact.....We still have a patchwork offensive line......And one has to ask why didn't he rush the ball more than once this season?.... _________________ There's a kind of HUSH All Over The World..... |

I always liked Ryan Grant.
That said, I think he's going to look washed up. _________________ much thanks to nobody on the sig. FF GBP Forum Wiki Page.  |

can't fake explosiveness...he would look REALLY good with a good QB and our O-line. _________________ "My style is impetuous. My defense is impregnable." Yours truly on the sig...

Going to be fun watching this thing play out. I'm a Grant guy though. Doubt they will expect much from him for a few weeks. But it will be nice having some fresh legs come the playoffs. I do wonder what type of shape he is in right now and how long it will take him to get back into football shape as a 30 year old RB. Either way, IMO that was a very smart sign by the upper brass. _________________

I missed that. When? |
Man wanted starter money. Hit the open market and found that the Packers were not the only ones unwilling to give him that type of bank. Was told some time back that the Pats laughed at his agent when talking money. These things happen. Man's head got a little too big for his hat. IMO though, Grant has not been a Packer this year because of money/value. Grant made a good bit more sence than Benson but Benson could be had for next to nothing and pushed the value bar because of it. _________________

| Wasn't he with Washington for a few weeks? Hopefully that helps get his legs under him quicker |
