Saints could lose Jimmy Graham with non-exclusive tag

The problem with all the trade ideas...

1. Someone has to go after Graham.

2. Agree to the trade.

There may not be a single one.

And we would have destroyed the giants in the Superdome,

I Agee we would have destroyed the Giants, my point is that nothing is guaranteed. Maybe we couldn't find a player with Grahams skill set but we can find quality players that we could sign at a rookie salary that would help our cap in future years. I think two draft picks for Graham is a no brainer.

Josh Hill showed signs in the playoffs. I think he is capable of filling in Graham's spot while we get a receiver to line up alongside Colston. Also, Smith may not be a panther, Desean might not be an eagle. Those are two good receivers to sign. If the receivers are not good enough in this draft it can't hurt to get someone proven that could give us a good one year run ala a player I don't want to name due to some controversy.
