No one. Put Hill and Watson out there. Both were quite productive when Graham wasn't available.

No need. If you want to get an idea of the Saints offense without Graham, take a look at the Pittsburgh game last season. Other than the decoy on the Watson TD, Graham simply wasn't a significant contributor. And the offense still ran like clockwork.

DeVante Parker to help fill the void?

And thats why we have a new scout to see to it we hit on our picks.

You realize that after this year most of Graham's guaranteed money is gone. The Hawks will have no trouble signing Wilson. We got Graham for a 1st rounder and I am ok with that (Your telling me teams wouldn't want Jimmy Graham for a 1st round pick??). You guys got Unger for a fourth. Graham has been pretty healthy while Unger is debatable. Graham hasn't been a cancer in the locker room so unless he is a coaches problem, I see very little risk??

IM sorry F this trade. we just made them unbeatable and there is not a team I hate worse than them. We could've got more from a team that isn't already stacked.

Pocket constantly collapsing
Brees throwing to Jimmy Graham on every 3rd down, every team knew it

Both those issues fixed

2009 and 2011 offenses were successful because no one was the focal point, teams would try to matchup with all our playmakers and suddenly there's David Thomas of all people catching a short pass and rumbling for 20+ yards.

As much as I liked Graham, I believe with a better O line we won't miss him at all.

Give Josh Hill a chance.

Re: Saints Trade Graham to the Seahawks
 
I agree that Josh Hill is a good talent.
There is a post on here and NFLUK forums from around MAy 2014 that i said Hill would have a breakout year. Watson is a very good alllround TE but his has some health issues. Im happy with Hill but for the right cash id have any of them three

I just saw this. I'm in shock.

Is 32nd pick in the first round still considered first round?

I hate that we traded him to Seattle. He's going to frikkin explode out there, unless he get injured again.

31st pick, Seattle lost the superbowl.
