Packers counting on Grant: The Packers are hoping to get a deal done before the start of training camp with RB Ryan Grant, an exclusive-rights free agent who remains unsigned. Grant has missed most of the offseason work without a contract, but he comes into 2008 as the starter. "I don't know that I had a lot of preconceived ideas about him. We were at the stage where we were just hoping to gain 3 yards. It wasn't like we were asking for a lot at that point," offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said when asked if Grant surprised him. "We were real pleased with what he did, and we're excited about what he can do in the future. But I don't know that you sit around in coaching and say, 'We've got this, we've got that' and stick your two feet up on your desk and take a deep breath. You're always one step away from not having that guy." (Updated 07/21/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Despite his relative inexperience, Grant will be in line to be a solid Fantasy option playing behind a good offensive line. Figure Grant to be a Top-20 Fantasy RB in 2008, worth a pick in Round 2 in all drafts this summer. (Updated 07/21/2008).
RB Ryan Grant will not sign the team's one-year minimum tender of $370,000 for a second-year player and will not report to the team's training camp without a new deal, his agent told the News Chronicle. "We're getting a little close here (to the start of camp)," Alan Herman told the paper, before acknowledging the Brett Favre situation also is keeping the team busy. "I'm kind of waiting to hear from them. I know they're a little preoccupied with just a small problem." 07/16/2008
