Graham has caught 34 of 46 targets. That's a 74% reception rate. That's outstanding. Of the top 20 receivers (yards) this season, only one has a better percentage (and he's a running back) Jordy Nelson 63% Antonio Brown 67% Julio Jones 64% TY Hilton 68% Golden Tate 72% Alshon Jeffery 67% Demarius Thomas 56% DeSean Jackson 54% Emmanuel Sanders 73% Jeremy Maclinn 45% Dez Bryant 63% Delanie Walker 64% Reggie Wayne 63% Andre Johnson 63% Kelvin Benjamin 56% Julian Edelman 71% Greg Olsen 64% Matt Forte 83% Just curious, is Forte the only guy you'd trust on this list? Also, there are only two guys on that list that have fewer targets than Graham, Walker and Jackson, so by comparison, it's hard to say the Saints are forcing the ball to Graham. |

That's why I listed the stats. Graham's actually catching more than any of the other receivers in the top 20. The truth of the matter is that he's been outstanding at catching most balls thrown his way so far this season. |
