Dan T. Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 My new favorite second stringer. He plays like a 10 year vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 He's so polished, never drops the ball. This guy is going to be a fan favorite for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Calm, runs good routes, has GREAT hands, snatches the ball out of the air instead of waiting for it to come to him...love love LOVE that he's on the roster.

RandyHolt Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Who is a comparable for Ryan Grant? His great route running / size has made me think of Henry Ellard, but that's high company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodBits Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Who is a comparable for Ryan Grant? His great route running / size has made me think of Henry Ellard, but that's high company. I've heard Greg Jennings tossed around and I love the comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BraveWarrior Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I posted in the game thread earlier that I thought he reminded me a bit of Henry Ellard. Of course, it's way too early, but I think he has a lot of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomadskin11 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Ryan Grant, hand catcher. Yup good call. First catch I saw of his in the preseason that flashed in my mind too. Haven't seen those kinds of hands in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TysonM Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I loved the look on his face as Cousins was congratulating him for the TD. He's so humble about what he does, just like Alfred Morris. Quality players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen those kinds of hands in a while. He reminds me of a shorter Leonard Hankerson but with hands, looks and personality-wise that is. Yup good call.

BleedBNG Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Must say I haven't seen a decent rookie WR come here since Art Monk and Charlie Brown (who wasn't on the roster his rookie year) ...till now. Smart player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 In a couple of years when Garcon has aged a bit and his contract escalates, it'll be good to have a developed Ryan Grant ready to take his place. That's how the good organizations do it. Draft a guy in the mid/late rounds and groom him to take over for an expensive starter in 2-3 years.

The Trashman Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Ryan Grant is my favorite offensive player, besides RG3, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwitt Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Ryan F-ing Grant? Really? Let's see he has average size, he'a slower than my grandfather after a nap, and Jarrod Abbiderios from Wisconsin was on the board who is taller, faster, and considered the best route runner in the country. This team has a pathalogical need to flush mid to late round draft picks down the toilet. Grant will not makle it out of camp. They screwed the pooch again. Please don't just dismiss this as a late round pick so who cares.Get angry. They own the fans who pay for this gold mine an explanation. And to prove my point they flushed their last pick with a kicker we didn't need. God here we go again. Could we hire Ozzie Nusome to run the Skins draft?

Taylor703 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 He needs to be on the field. If he would've made that catch in the end zone he would've entered "god mode" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zazzaro703 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So happy about our depth at WR. When Jackson went down my first thought was great we are back to last year with Garçon being the only option. After the knee jerk I remembered Grant and Roberts and we are in good shape. Been so long since we had a great lineup of WRs. Grant finally looks like he will break the favorite ES saying of "it takes 3 years for WR so get used to the league" when all across the league that isn't the case. About time we hit the money on a WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About time we hit the money on a WR. Yeah rookie WRs can come in right away and contribute. This is one of those cases where preseason is spot on. I remember Morris looking great his rookie pre season too and it carried over. Sometimes guys just pass the eye test and you know they can play. Not saying Grant will be as impactful as Morris was but I think his future is bright in the NFL. When you run good routes and catch everything thrown at you, there is always place for you in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
