Quote:Yes CAP as we call Payne in Auburn was turning into a star as was Tre Mason the year before. They were also trying to phase in a 5 star Roc Thomas Freshman.

If Grant makes the Jags it will be by way of the special team route.

 

He will be a guy in camp that will bring down the house with his speed. There will be a ton of talk here believe me.He will have to improve tremendously to make this team though unless Auburn just had to many Running Backs(Imagine that)

 

  Thanks for your input!

 

   In reality,  Corey Grant will be competing against players not only at RB but at other positions as well.   Grant may need to convince the Jags team brass that he warrants a roster spot over a player at another position.

 

  If Grant doesn't land a roster spot at the start of the season,  he would benefit greatly if the Jags or another team gave him a Practice Squad opportunity.   That could set the stage for a 53 man roster opportunity later in the season or at least getting a contract for 2016. 

 

   I certainly would be interested in your opinion of how you believe CAP's career will go with the Carolina Panthers and were you surprised that he lasted to near the end of Round 5 ( pick # 174 )?   At least he will be playing with former Auburn QB Cam Newton.
