I'm not a fan of 12 fumbles, 7 lost in the last two seasons. The years prior he was fairly solid.

Fumbles
Year     Team                G          FUM     Lost
2011     Cincinnati          15         5          2
2010     Cincinnati          16         7          5
2009     Cincinnati          13         1          0
2008     Cincinnati          12         2          1
2007     Chicago             11         3          2

Comparing the two ... Benson to Grant.. the Number of Fumbles to touches.

For another Reference.. Ahman Green 1.52% 37 fumbles on 2434 touches.

Walter Payton 1.99% 86 fumbles on 4330 touches.

Barry Sanders 1.20% 41 Fumbles on 3414 touches.

Adrian Peterson 1.43% 22 Fumbles on 1543 Touches.

Frank Gore 1.44% 28 Fumbles on 1940 Touches. GrantVsBenson.JPG You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Benson has put up 1000 yrds each of the last three seasons. I like the signing and think he can add a new dimension to the play action on first and second down. Teams know this guy is not a receiving back, if he is in the game look for the run. The Packers should be able to run a great play-action with Benson in the Back-field.

I see many in the thread comparing Grant to Benson and why was one signed over the other, and many point to the amount of money Benson will receive. I know Grant is still a free agent, and he tried out for the Patriots, but received know contract offer. I think Grant just can not play at a high level any more.

I'm glad Benson is on the Pack, and hope to see him really punish the Bears.

So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse, Or I'll lay your soul to waste

I was ignoring it... or trying.. it was a shortcut that I took. I can clean it up more.. but most people don't keep their signatures for long periods.. so sometimes I take shortcuts.

All he is doing is planting the seed. Fair play in turn.. so to speak.

dfosterf (1h) : OTC has increased Packers cap room to over 32 mil

Martha Careful (2h) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er

Zero2Cool (4h) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (4h) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (4h) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (4h) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (4h) : Can't make him play.

dhazer (4h) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play

Zero2Cool (5h) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?

dfosterf (5h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (6h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd

Zero2Cool (6h) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (6h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (6h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (6h) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (6h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

Zero2Cool (6h) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet

dfosterf (6h) : Current cap space 29.6 million.

dfosterf (6h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

Mucky Tundra (13h) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉

beast (15h) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (16h) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (18h) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (18h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (21h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (22h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (22h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (23h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Minnesota Vikings cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. is returning on a three-year, $66 million deal

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster
