Well this certainly was a shocker ... all afternoon driving around I figured B&G'd be blowing up. Good or bad, the FO's serious and if this Unger guy can stay healthy, I think it's way for the better, .

Seattle passes approx. 30% less than New Orleans anyway, so his numbers will naturally be down ... but who knows? It might help him stay healthy and if it was Graham that Wilson was targeting instead of Lockett, they may have very well scored on that last play. The biggest thing that'll probably affect JG's play is the locker room drama that's gonna' play out (see below), .

^^^ This. Graham in the red zone is STILL something that almost nobody can stop. He has maybe dropped one or two, but other than that he has been absolutely formidable in the red zone and that is how I see Seattle using him. That goal line play where Jimmy runs like two paces into the end zone, turns around and Drew chucks it to him; I can see Seattle and Wilson doing a lot of that.

The last two will be franchised. The first two will most likely sign long term deals between now and the start of training camp.

Just as we had to do last year with JG, their respective teams will do whatever it takes to keep their players.

They are not going to get into the free agent market.

Also as always I have to throw my two cents in about what I view as playing fantasy football. In the 5 years that JG was with the Saints, Brees has thrown for 25387 yards, 2450 completions, and 194 TDs in the regular season. Graham has caught 4700+ yards, 386 receptions and 51 TDs during that span. That means that over 20000 yards, 2100 receptions, and nearly 150 TDs have been thrown by Brees to someone other than Graham in the last 5 years. So why is there the instant thought process that without Graham that suddenly the offense is going to stop producing?

In the last 9 years the Saints have had a top offense virtually each and every year, with or without Graham. There's no reason to think this will not continue.

So instead of playing fantasy football, why not focus on the true problems. That would be defense, special teams, and O-line (mostly from the health perspective)?

Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
