scottyjets Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Grant has not been phenomenal but has been consistent and is an important part of my Championship run right now. I think he's about to fall, hard, though. The Packers did not sign Ahman Green to return kickoffs. Green only got two touches, but he was on the field instead of Grant for an entire drive in the 3rd quarter, and was in the game in some goal-line situations instead of Grant. Anyone else concerned? I'm thinking now is the time to sell. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Beatings Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 But how long to you think Green will hold up? I give him two weeks before he gets injured and retires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Looked like he has the change of pace RB instead of Brandon Jackson there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he does decent, but I expect more and so do all Green Bay Fans. YES I AM CONCERNED!!! Don't drop him; and only trade him if your getting value in return. I still want to give him the benefit of the doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WashingtonD Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 He's not a "special player" He lacks top end speed and the acceleration to consistently be a great fantasy performer...that coupled with the fact the Green Bay line is still pretty atrocious really limits him to being a match up type starter in fantasy football. I don't particularly fear the addition of Ahman Green as he's past his football prime and brought to help spell Grant, not to push towards a RBBC and certainly not to replace him. Grant's schedule is favorable enough for me to hold him right now...as I'll want to start him next week against the hapless Bucs and week 12 against the Lions....after that, the match ups get tougher and he'll be relegated back to my fantasy bench. I guess if you were to move him, your chance will be after next week...let him torch the Bucs and try to get value for him down the stretch on someone who's not looking at matchups and SOS WD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Good recap - I took him as RB2 not expecting a lot, but a little more than what he's been giving. Coure I didn't expect the OL to suck this bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyOne Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) I only had him in a dynasty until Saturday. I'm in the play off hunt, and I don't think Green is a threat, but I traded him because he's not a special back, he's suffering from line issues, and I fully expect him to be replaced in the offseason, either with a new rbbc or a full time better back. I think if you can get value, and I agree with Wash that the week after the Bucs game is the one to get ready for, then I really think you have to move him for someone who'll be active next year, or doing better this year for redraft.

chinatown dragons Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm waiting for this week and gong to trade in a hurry. One league trade deadline is Nov. 13. Is it getting close for you guys? Against TB, with Rodgers slightly banged up, I expect Grant to get it going this weekend.......125 and a score.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
