Don't forget P Robinson will be back as well. Corey White might be better suited in nickel packages.

POSITIVE:

We may have found our franchise LT, in an unknown rookie from a small school :bng:

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

If the Saints don't pay him, there are 31 other teams that will!

If Graham becomes a FA, the Failclowns will jump at the chance to sign him!

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Brees. I'll give you.

Jimmy... OK

Streif did better than most RT in the nfl

Jenkins is a miscast that hasn't made the jump

D line is solid.

Love bush attitude and Kv has the moxie

Still need depth at DB and OL

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Graham will either be resigned or tagged, he's staying a Saint at least one more year

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

I vote we DON'T tag a friggin Tight End.

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

well if they don't get a long term worked out, would you rather him test free agency?

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

100% YES

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Yes someone will, but after watching tape on him every DC on 31 teams will put a physical CB or Safety on him and he want be much of a factor if any. He wants the money he needs to show up every game and make an impact or settle for much less or what he is actually worth. I would not break the bank for him he has a lot of improving to do. I'm not saying he can't improve in those areas but I can't see it overnight.

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Transition tag him. Let the market set his price and we have first right of refusal.

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Armstead will definitely be the starting LT next season. Did he give up a sack or a pressure today?

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

In one word: No. Dude you can't lose what 80+ catches, 1,200 yrds and 16 TD's and hope to replicate it.

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

Teams try to muscle Graham, this isn't something that's just started happening, they've been doing that to him for a couple years now. That was one of the knocks against him when he and Gronk were competing, he was more athletic with better hands but Gronc was tougher and stronger. There's only a few corners and safetys in the league that can keep Graham clamped down for an entire game. You need someone that's big enough to push him around and yet fast enough to keep up with him when he gets by. And the team also has to have a second big defensive back that can cover Colston.

It doesn't happen often though, he's still got the best receiving numbers of any TE in the league. I think what's been happening this year is the guys around him aren't stepping up when he's bracketed. In some games, we're missing that other option.

Just my opinion.

Re: What I will take from 13-14 Season
 

I think a lot of you are over reacting to Graham and the game he just had today. I'll agree that he was never the same after the performance in New England. However, as much as I love Marques Colston I think we are lacking a true number one receiver. I still think there is a place for Colston on this team. Morgan, Stills and Toon are still unproven and both Moore and Meachum are more than likely on the way out. A part of me is still willing to see if Moore has something left, as he always was a reliable receiver. Injuries IMO really hurt his season.

Graham is one of those match up nightmares that works well in this offense. I think we are a true impact receiver away from maybe taking a Aqib Talib or Richard Sherman off him in coverage.

We need more guys that can create separation both at the line of scrimmage and down field. We just don't have that right now.

16 touch downs. He'll get his money.
