He's probably priming the pump as a favor to Jimmy Sexton; but it's noteworthy nonetheless...

I really think a team like Miami, who's had a good history with the Saints in trades could pull the trigger - now how that get's done is another situation...

And they haven't exactly had a good run in the first round the past few seasons so they could geaux for the known quantity...

For all the love Triplett gets, I'd argue Brian Allee-Walsh has been the best news and opinion on the Saints over the last twenty-five years maybe save Jim Henderson...

Re: Jimmy Graham Contract

He is spot on with this: "Remember, too, the smart folks in the Saints football operations are renown for unearthing uncut gems."

But ultimately fails to recognize this: The Saints are also renown for over paying (Will Smith), and hanging on to players way too long (list is longer than they hold onto them for).
