Speedy Ron · 08-08-2011, 06:50 PM

Ive been reading that he has been having a horrible camp. dropping pass like crazy... has anyone been to camp and witnessed?

Thats what camp is for. Get it all out of your system and practice your butt off.

Where did you hear that?
Nola.com was reporting that drew was looking for him constantly and he looked like a beast catching everything thrown his way, so this is a little bit suprising?

I heard he was tearing it up after the first couple of days in camp.This is the first I've heard of this!I'll still have my #80 jersey soon.

No I haven't heard of this, but I get most of my info from y'all. So any truth to the statement??

Here's an article I found:

Graham hot and cold:

The Saints love his talent and the mismatches he presents in the red zone for the Saints offense. However, Tight end Jimmy Graham has struggled with drops at times in the camp so far. He’ll make a couple of tough catches and then drop a routine pass. It’s puzzling, but at the same time kind of expected from a guy that hasn’t been playing football very long. Graham was primarily a basketball player until the end of his college career. There are still going to be growing pains with Graham, but for the most part he’ll be a huge weapon in 2011.

Thanks for the update. He'll be fine, I'm not worried about it yet

I just hope he doesn't fall into his own hype and crumble under pressure to produce big time numbers. A lot of people are expecting big big things from him... hopefully all the kinks will be worked out when the season starts.

I think he's going to come close to scoring double digit touchdowns this season.

homerj07 · 08-09-2011, 12:25 PM

i can see 5-7 TDs not anywhere near double digits though

Not worried if he do have a drop problem David Thomas can take up his slack.
