I'm not going to get down on Jimmy Graham. He was a great player for the Saints, regardless of the injuries he sustained over the last couple of years. But the Saints have not been the same team over the past couple of years, in large part because of a serious decline in the play of the offensive line! I think one of the main reasons Drew Brees has looked human lately is because of the added pressure he has been getting. Much of that pressure has come right up the middle and through the center of the line! It makes no difference how good our recievers might are if the QB doesn't have time to throw the ball.
I hate loosing Graham, but I think this is a good deal for the Saints. I like both Ben Watson and Josh Hill at the TE position and think they will be adequate replacements for Graham.
I guess only time will tell, but I don't think this is necessarily a bad deal for the Saints, especially if they but the extra 1st round draft pick to good use!
He will be like every saint Wr/Te go somewhere else tank and come back for half the price
Drew Brees is supposedly being shopped around. Or more specifically Saints are listening to offers for future Hall of Famer
