He is not being put into the rotation, and only gets playing time when it is a must have situation because of injuries, for a reason.

If Toon gets more playing time this year than Arrington expect Arrington to be gone next year.

Thats what happens when you have a 4 headed monster at runningback.

Keep in mind... Ingram is about to go through his first NFL camp! He had no rookie camp.

This! He stays healthy and he's gonna prove the reason for being selected in the 1st round...

Any time people start to freak out about dudes with contracts that are coming up down the pike, I always remember that right after the lockout we had a ton of free agents up that year, really a lot, and everybody was freaking out -- I mean it looked just impossible, like it was time to pay the piper and the ride was maybe over -- and Loomis found a way to make it work. Except for crazy stuff like the Olin Kreutz experiment, we did pretty darn good that year.

Jimmy Graham present contract
Jimmy Graham Tight End7/28/2010: Signed a four-year, $2.455 million contract. The deal included a $665,140 signing bonus. 2012: $540,000, 2013: $575,000, 2014: Free Agent


My thoughts on what will happen if Jimmy keeps playing to his potential.
In 2014 Brees cap hit will be 18.4 then explodes after that due to expected TV deals, Brees is cap friendly until 2015.

Either Jimmy is offered a new contract next year to squeak the bulk into a salary cap friendly year, or he is franchise tagged in 2014. The FT for 2012 was $5.4 mil.... Next Years TE FT will be around $7.175M

Reports that Rob Gronkowski being the highest paid TE in hostory are wrong... He is 5th of the top 5.
Jason Witten, Dallas: $7.4 million/yr, $18.5 million guaranteed
Vernon Davis, San Francisco: $7.35 million/yr, $23 million guaranteed
Antonio Gates, San Diego: $7.235 million, $20.4 million guaranteed
Jermichael Finley, Green Bay: $7 million, $1 million guaranteed
Rob Gronkowski, New England: $6.9 million, $18 million guaranteed

Yeah, there are only a handful of guys on that list of free agents next year that the organization should even consider bringing back. We could survive without most of them.

It's going to look like this many FA's will happen almost every year.
