Ryan Grant Gets Paid, Has No Idea Who Will Be Handing The Ball Off To Him

Following a breakout season where Grant helped get the Packers to the NFC Championship game, the folks at Lambeau took enough time away from the ridiculous Brett Favre situation to pony up the dough for the former Irish running back.  After a justifiable holdout, Grant will have the chance to earn up to $30 million in the four-year deal, capitalizing on a monster second half where he eclipsed a hundred yards five times in the final ten games after only 27 yards total in the first six weeks.  Grant also popped off for 201 yards against the Seahawks in the divisional round, atoning for two early fumbles, before getting completely corralled by the fantastic Giants defensive line.  For fantasy purposes, Grant seems to be a consensus top 15 pick, although it might be tough for him to get carries with Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers wrestling in the backfield for every snap.
