I generally prefer not to do this. I won't be BAPAYed, and I prefer to make people work to figure out what I have But you're free to post whatever you want.

I'm more than happy to oblige:

Also, I don't like to scare people too much with the impressive names on my team.

You have a good team

I wanted Ryan Grant

The guy fell off the fantasy cliff for no real reason. James Starks isn't that good.

[snoopy369]

Grant isn't that good either, but he does have the whole Green Bay Packers thing going for him, so...

Never missed a game due to injury until last year. Two straight 1200 yard seasons including an 11 TD season.

The only fear with Grant is that he's Rudi Johnson 2.0. Rudi never got hurt, averaged 1407 yards and 12 TDs for 3 straight years while not even being on casual fans' radars, finally got hurt at age 28, and is now out of the NFL. Did I fail to mention Ryan Grant's age when he finally got hurt? 28.

Still, I see a bounce back at least this year. His similarity to Rudi Johnson is worrisome, though.

[-Jrabbit]

That felt wrong, but it turns out he does profile a lot like Rudi. I didn't realize how few catches he gets.

[Dammit, cut into another DST thread. Sorry! ]

It's actually amazing how similar their careers are.

Rudi Johnson came into the NFL as a 4th rounder but had only 17 carries in his first two NFL seasons.
Ryan Grant was an undrafted guy on the Giants practice squad who did nothing outside of the preseason his first few years.

Rudi broke out at age 24 as a backup only getting 5 starts yet exploded for 957 yards and 9 TDs. His yardage numbers? 146 receiving yards.
Grant broke out at age 25 as a backup only getting 7 starts yet exploded for 956 yards and 7 TDs. His yardage numbers? 145 receiving yards.
(HOLY **** that's scarily similiar! )

In a pass-first offense, Rudi put together 3 stellar seasons (average 1407 yards and 12 TDs). He averaged 20.3 catches for 99.3 yards. Never missed a game due to injury.
In a pass-first offense, Ryan put together 2 stellar seasons (average 1228 yards and 7.5 TDs). He averaged 21.5 catches for 156 yards. Never missed a game due to injury.

At age 28, Rudi finally got injured.
At age 28, Ryan finally got injured.


They're the two backs most similar to each other of any that I can recall. Their physical makeup, their career progression, their stats, their role in similar offenses, the way they've been quietly productive, their ages at various points in their careers, all nearly identical. I don't think you'll ever find a pair of RB's not so eerily similar in so many ways.

Now it'll be up to Grant to break the similarity by having a productive season.
