Grant'll be back, and he'll be productive. Dude gets zero love from the fans, but he's been solid as all hell and put up consecutive 1200 yard seasons on a pass-first offense. I don't know what more people want from the guy.

He'll be back. He'll get back in the starting lineup. He'll produce. That's what he does.

I'm not trying to kick a guy when he's down, but he's never seemed particularily elusive, fast, or anything special. He does consistently produce good numbers, and maybe I'm taking that for granted, but he seems more like a system guy to me, kind of like (insert random player who'll run 12-1500 yards) in the Bronco's offense when Shannahan was there.

Grant IMO is one of the underrated backs in the league.Yes he may not be elusive or very fast but he is very tough man he is a power back and a one cut runner in my eyes im glad he is are starting HB. I hated to see him go down man.But I think jackson will step up and make some plays for us.

Remember this guy...he fanned the flames on his feet after a preseason kr/pr td? lets bring him back! :)

As for other retreads, Ahman is in the UFL, and I think Davenport is pooping in a closet somewhere.

I agree with RP, though, I've never been overly impressed with Grant, and although I'm not overly impressed with Bjack either, Grant better get back or he may sacrifice some of his snaps to Bjack.

Demond Parker! Yeah, he sealed his fate by batting the ball up in the air instead of catching it. Good thing they let Bjack get away with that. LOL. Parker had great speed and agility. A little on the small side. I was rooting for him, but he couldn't catch a lick.
Grant will be back. Maybe it's for the best, since he never turns it on before week 10 anyway. LOL.
Glad Jackson's getting his shot.

I used to follow baseball in the 80s and 90s before that strike, and was a hard-core SF Giants fan. They had a player for a few years called Rick Reuschel who was the most boring pitcher to watch. His wind up was painfully slow and he had the face like Charlie Brown. Because of this, he wasn't a fan favorite.

Ryan Grant is like Rick Reuschel. Not a fan favorite, but he consistently gets results. Reuschel turned out to be a dependable pitcher for the Giants before he retired. Boring, nothing flashy, but dependable.

Ryan is the same. Boring. Nothing flashy. But consistently good.

Don't take him for granted because he doesn't have the best moves, the best cuts, and he doesn't run over people. What he does get us are yards and TDs and he doesn't fumble. In the end, that is what matters anyways.

My gut tells me if Grant is out more than one week Grant will not get the starting job back.

It happens all the time in the NFL.

Look for some special things from Jackson.

Jackson has had opportunities to show he has something special and hasn't, why would it be any different this time around? Unless the injury is really bad and can't be healed properly while having to play on it, then I can't imagine why he wouldn't be the starter again. Jackson is a #2 at best, and will be happy to get any production out of him. In reality I don't care if Jackson has 20 carries for 20 yards, just handing the ball off a certian amount of times makes defenses at least have to keep stopping the run in mind.

At any rate, with that in mind, I don't see a reason to rush and pickup another RB when the DL vacancy from Harrell is much more important imo.

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
