It'll be alright man. And if not, that's just the way it is. We aren't a championship team if we stand pat.

defense is a mess and only got worse. they are not going to win us anything, bend do not break is the best we are going to get. offense is key.

as drew goes so do the saints. he can step up this year unlike the years past.

now we need a tall WR

good solid debate i have to admit

Drew's numbers are still top shelf.
Our problem is defense. we couldn't even stop a clock.
Payton's offense is plug and play, we will be OK on that side of the ball.
We have to figure out how to get our defense off the field on 3rd and 17,
how to find some corners that can actually look over their shoulder while running,
how to actually wrap-and-roll and make tackles.
There goes four(4) additional wins right there.
Graham did his job while he was here. Thank you Jimmy!
Next man step up. PLEASE.

I'm curious to hear from Jimmy... I'm sure he's probably livid and waiting to calm down a little.

Great move, total shocker, but great trade.

Drew has made Jimmy and he will make the next big body TE look just as good.

Man I hate it was Seattle though. On the other hand, I may be glad it was Seattle if we get to play them in the NFCCG, because we all no know Jimmy tends to disappear in the big ones.

Thanks for the time Jimmy and good luck.

Mickey Loomis on Graham trade: We have to improve on defense | ProFootballTalk

“We’ve had a good offensive team for a number of years. We’ve been able to finish in the top four or five in offense in eight of the last nine years. We do well on that side of the ball, but we’ve got to get better on defense. There are three ways to get players in our league. That’s through free agency, it’s through the draft and then trades. We believe in using all avenues. We took one of our assets and turned it into some resources that we can hopefully improve our defense with.”

This sums up exactly why we did this. It may not be popular with some people and that's understandable but tough choices have to be made and our defensive woes are obvious.

If New England can do this stuff every year and make it to 6 Superbowls then we need to be able to do it too. That being said, if we get another Robert Meachem, Malcolm Jenkins, Kenny Vaccarro or Sedrick Ellis instead of a real player it will go down as one of the dumbest moves we've ever done.
