    The Lions are a little schizoid. They will go an entire half running from shotgun with no FB, and then run the entire second half with a standard set - FB, TE, 2WR. Typically though, they don't run from an I as much as shotgun. I guess Grant could fit in then half the time or less.

      Packers are not calling Grant these days; it's Lions or Pats that are in the picture for Grant.

        John Grant and the Packers have mutual interest in bringing back the running back for another season. Grant currently has an offer on the table from division rivals the Lions, however.

        "I think that Green Bay is a phenomenal organization, the guys on the team and what we've built there in the last five years is something special. Coach (Mike) McCarthy and the rest of the coaches I think are doing a great job across the board. And the community, the fans are the best. So of course, I think everybody knows that I'm a Packer at heart and I do want to stay.

        But that's the business aspect of everything. I understand it, and I think both sides do. We're just trying to move forward. And if we can work something out, that'd be awesome." Article

                He plays for Hidden Valley Junior College in Colorado. Not much on him except that he talks too much.
                After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

                    Depends on how much he's getting paid. He's been known to switch teams for more money.

                      Wilde and Demovsky have talked to his agent (Herman) and Grant has a deal on the tale from the Lions and a mystery team not names "Packers".
                      Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                            Grant is a neverwas so who cares. Glad TT will have to find another nobody who will probably end up being the stud RB.

                              TT certasinly had a decent shot at a new prospect at RB out of the draft with his 'round seven selections'. Instead he chose at QB, a prospect that would have a difficult time making a CFL roster. We already had three QB's on our potential roster. It's been firmy expressed that Graham Harrell is the backup QB.

                              TT had a solid draft. He might have improved upon his decisions but picking at QB in the seventh round looked alot like saving some face to me in terms of the position selection than in getting the BPA. When TT aborted his focus of prospects on 'D'. He should have selected BPA.

                              We had need at RB. What do we see as 'a certain' there? ZERO. Our ground game continues to SUCK.

                              TT passed on several players more highly Graded than that B.J. Coleman and one of those was a RB.

                              IMO TT passed up opportunity to select better in round seven of the draft. He needed a RB not a QB.

                              GO PACKERS!

                                More highly graded by whom?

                                Ted doesn't give a crap about your draft board Woody. He has his own.
