Grant would be a good running back for a team that will give him 20 touches a game or more.

A RB in McCarthy's scheme needs to be one of those rare guys who can get 10-15 touches and average 10+ yards a touch. Problem is there's not many of those backs out there.

Grant always was a guy who would get around 3 yards. But then he'd have one or two long runs that would vastly inflate his average. And change the game. He hasn't been getting those long runs. Maybe it's the Oline. Maybe he's not getting enough carries. Maybe he's lost it.

My problem with Grant has to do with yards after contact, in which he must be the worst in the league. He goes down too easily for a north - south runner. I know we will never get the exciting reverse the field runs from him, but dammit, break some tackles once in a while, Ryan.

And maybe work on catching the ball.

I wish we had kept Sutton too so we could have started the season with Grant and Sutton with 3 FB's. That would not have got the ire of fans, not at all. I am down with cutting Wynn and promoting Lumpkin. I've had it with Wynn. At least this week. Maybe next week I'll want him to have 20 carries? lol (waffle!)

Cut Kuhn. Move Wynn to FB.

Just because he's a bigger back doesn't mean he'd be a good FB.

Why would we cut Kuhn when he's our most valuable FB on offense and the most consistent???

You've lost me, here...

Wynn has more power, speed, explosiveness, is able to pick up the blitz. All of the above.

dfosterf (10-Aug) : Could have been a worse start, so there is that.

beast (10-Aug) : Yeah, someone tell the Packers football season has started, seems like they weren't ready for it

Mucky Tundra (10-Aug) : Sooooooo many penalties

Mucky Tundra (10-Aug) : It may only be preseason, but this game is a trip to the dentist

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
