Jimmy Graham Struggling With Dropped Passes

Time for Big Ben Watson to mentor Jimmy!
*********************************************************
New Orleans Saints star tight end Jimmy Graham has been struggling with the case of the dropsies in camp. He had some issues with it last season as well, so it will be something that we all keep our eyes on.

From New Orleans Times-Picayune:


The Saints’ tight end has continued to struggle with occasional dropped balls during training camp — a problem that plagued him last season. Graham dropped two passes Monday, one in team drills and one in 7-on-7 (though one could have been considered a pass break up).

With the mess at wide receiver for the Saints, Graham will be the focus of the passing attack. He is going to get a ton of plays going in his direction and will be the focus in the red zone and on 3rd down. Dropped passes on those situations are killer. Graham has to keep his focus and bring that football in.

Drop down and give me some push ups boy.

And everyone tried to blame it on the wrist, he just loses concentration and takes his eyes off the ball before it arrives

Really hoping we established the run attack early. He'll get more space and stay healthy.

Re: Jimmy Graham Struggling With Dropped Passes

Its not like he has Sanchez or Gabbert throwing him ducks. Jimmyah better pick it up or he'll never see that big contract his AGENT is asking for. Grinds my gears every time I see a video from camp and he drops a pass that Drew drops into his fing hands. Practice like you play
