I wouldn't part with Jimmy graham for Patrick Robinson, Robert Meachem, Malcolm Jenkins, and Mark Ingram... 4 of this regimes last 8 first round draft picks.
Would you let him go for two 1st round picks if we could get Vernon Davis or Dallas Clark?

It's not "who you get". That is a gamble that you do not know the payout on for a couple of years, and our track record is 50%. So at best you get 1...... Our track record for drafting 1st round WRs is what?

Now...... Your wanting to get rid of Jimmy due to cost and pick up a Vernon Davis that will cost you more in 3 years.

So we go through all of that exercise to be back to where we are in 3 years. It's not worth the energy.
