Graham has been tackled by 1 5'10 CB or safety way more than he gets away.

Graham was targeted 30 more times than Gronk last season. I think the YAC is valid in Gronks case. He is never as open as Graham is. Your right YAC is overrated in a lot of cases, but not is this case I believe.
Graham needs to improve in this area, and even if he never does, I don't think it matters.
In the end what really matters is who can catch better for a TE, and thats clearly Graham. He catches things only Colston could".


Fair enough. A lot of that is Jimmy still trying to bulk up, after being a basketball player for so long. I don't suspect they'll try to add much more weight to him though, because at some point it starts to slow your foot speed.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
