I saw a lot of favre and sherman in that, but not ONE SINGLE quote from walker. Basically if favre were here I think he would be saying exactly that to Grant, sign your slotted deal and come in here. Maybe I'm wrong.
This article shows how favre felt about it and he even says
"Nowadays you're seeing more and more guys pulling that stunt," Favre said. "If guys continue to do that and are successful getting away with it, then I'll be gone, but I think the game will be ruined. My reaction to Javon's situation was, 'Here we go again.'
I think his reaction would be the same now. At the point of your article, all that JWalk was doing was missing voluntary team activities and asking for a new contract. And favre and sherman both had the same attitude, you are not irreplaceable, we can plug in the next guy and move on....how is it any different with Grant?? Oh yea, he wasn't good enough to get drafted, so he somehow has a right to get a big deal. NO WAY he signs a deal like JWalk was playing for at this exact same time. If he does, I'll change my tone and apologize, but at this point in time I see him the same as anyone who isn't participating....he is holding out for a contract.
