another way to look at streif is this almost all your OT are free agents in 2014 who would you bring back to help plug any holes the OL may have in a pinch? Strief is our #1 OT and has played very well as a starter. the rest i can not say the same for. If i was the coach Streif is my #1 security blanket on the OL as a whole. OC OG OT name it. he plays both ROT and LOT very well. i would want to do everything in my power to get as many years out of him as i can. in a perfect world he plays for no other team and retires a saint. even if he spends the rest of his days as a saint as our #1 back up. |

But, the main thing these guys have got to understand is this - Every available dollar under the salary cap will be spent on the entire team, but they must allow enough cap money to be available so as to have great supporting cast teammates (unlike Brees' agent, Tom Condon)... Then, they can win Superbowls and get to the real money in Championship Endorsements, SNL Appearances & Dancing with the Stars... |

It's been tried before but I'm not sure to what success. And there are the HoF implications. Jimmy Graham has a fantastic chance of getting in the Hall of Fame if his career is long enough and he continues to preform as he does as a TE. There is the old duck adage, if it's paid as a WR, played as a WR, and tagged a WR..... It ain't gettin in as a TE. We know how he is played but this is a formal tag and will change things. |

End of the day, Jimmy is in the 4th year of a rookie contract. No one could have seen how great he would become, but bottom line, he has gotten screwed. Good business, bad HR. Let's just pay him. |

Nahhh, I wouldn't say he has gotten screwed, he just out played his contract. Drew out played his initial Saints contract, and while people think a contract should change weekly based on how a player performs, it just doesn't work that way. Players and teams want contracts because they both thrive on certain parts of a contract. The Saints get cheap TDs and Jimmy Graham gets paid when he drops passes or is hurt. It could be fixed Beaty easily.... $x for a TD and $Y for a yard. Neither side wants that. There is harmony and balance.... Will Smith has grossly under played his contract. |
