I suspect it is two fold, see if he can help and a retirement thing. Probably more of the latter.

Between Thomas, Graham, and Williams we've upgraded the red zone threats. If Graham makes a couple of TD's then he's a viable third tight end.

Johnson was our best RZ threat last year at TE. We’ve added Foster to help Hill and now add Graham? And I’m still pulling for Krull!

Jeeeez, time really flies. He's 36 years old, I remember when we drafted him.

I'm okay with this signing but how much does he really have left? Juwan Johnson showed signs of being a very promising player for us, hopefully they don't force Jimmy out there to try and prove a point.

I agree don’t force him dizz. But sometimes a wise old TE can stay in the league. Gonzales, Gronk, Gates all showed if you know how to get open you can play TE at a late stage in your career. Let’s hope Graham can too.

Give us one year! We got Foster and Johnson! Playbook change? Look at the RB’s we have! WR will be just as important as a RB, but you have to grind it sometimes!

At least my Graham jersey I bought at the end of the season which ultimately was his last at the Saints can get some use.
