Kiper: Janarion Grant: 'He could be 5th-7th round pick'

I think right now he is viewed only as a return guy, albeit a good one. If he comes back and all the way and also does well as a receiver, I see him getting drafted. Reminds me of a poor man's TY Hilton.

Hilton was a much better receiver in college, also had much better numbers.

but then again we've had some of the worst QB'ing of all time for 2 straight years

We would've lost every game if it weren't for Grant. 100%. Most of his monster plays were against horrible teams though.

Has he gotten the medical redshirt so that he can come back to our team next year if he wants to?

Yes.

Yes.

Thank you! I thought I'd see it announced on this board, but I don't remember seeing it here.

Plummet? Right now he has an outside shot of getting drafted, He's more like an UFA or a camp invite. How much lower is there for his stock to go?

That's one season. If he comes back, earns his Masters and actually gets drafted in the late rounds he might be able to stick on a roster for a couple years then have his Masters and be set for life.

The dude an automatic for UFA and a good shot of being a late round draft.
How much lower can his stock go?? An injury and he would struggle for a camp invite.
I think your view of him and his skills are way to low. If you don't like him just say so. But I think your nuts if you think he won't be in a rookie camp next year. Providing he's healthy

Did I say I don't like him? But people on here constantly overvalue our players. And Grant hasn't shown to be much more than a return guy. He just hasn't been that productive as a WR. Sure he's the best player on our team but there are probably dozens of kids across the country that are just like him.

And return specialists aren't in high demand in the NFL, given the short rosters and kickoff rules. They want WRs (or DBs) that can play special teams, not the other way around.

Wake up people. Grant should come back to play in the turbo-charged Mehringer offense!
