I second this, not because of anything against Grossman. It just doesn't make sense for him to be on the roster, and not dressing for games at this point.

I would have preferred a change of pace back. Morris and Ryan are both grinders, we need a shifty back.

Helu and Royster are the change of back compared to Morris.

SS- regarding Hightower he must still be injured and this is why he hasn't come back?

re: Redskins Sign RB Ryan Grant/Place Roy Helu Jr. on IR

i'm pretty sure he's here to block on some of the passing plays. otherwise, i mean, what pro bowlers are sitting around on the street on week 3? at worst this is a trash in, thrash out signing.

The Redskins are hurting at the RB/halfback position. Grant signing with us is an excellent move.

re: Redskins Sign RB Ryan Grant/Place Roy Helu Jr. on IR

Hightower-still not even healthy enough to work out with teams from what I last heard

Grant-apparently healthy enough to get signed by the Skins w/o even a workout

Slaton-think what the Skins see in him is a step in when needed back who is familiar with the offense

Helu-he's been hurt for a while and aggravated his injuries on Sunday. I'm still a bit surprised, quite honestly, that he wasn't IR'd

Royster-also got hurt on Sunday, though it may not be as bad (3-4 weeks out) as I originally heard
