The cap consequences are trivial based the 2015-16 projected levels. Loomis has also proven to be a wizard at structuring contracts in such a manner to avoid hardships.

So why be angry at Graham, who has personally demanded nothing?

I read long ago he turned down a 10 million per season offer.

And if he wants 12 million, I think its too much. If the Saints only offer 8, I think thats too little.

No one has the right to tell me how I should feel about the situation.

Its true I wouldn't classify its as greed. I'd classify it as the player is asking for too much and me not wanting to cave in to his demands.
