During a radio interview following the trade of Jimmy Graham, New Orleans Saints General manager Mickey Loomis said something that might have been telling.

While the rest of the world was busy wondering how the Saints were going to move the ball and score touchdowns and make their red-zone trips count without Graham, Loomis was busy shrugging off those concerns.

“Drew (Brees) has a way of throwing a lot of these guys open,” Loomis said.

It seem like forever ago that this offense operated without Graham on the roster, but there were four seasons when coach Sean Payton was designing offenses for Brees before the tight end was pulled out of the third round of the 2010 draft.

The Saints managed just fine. In fact, it could be argued New Orleans featured the best offense in the NFL from 2006-2010, finishing no lower than fifth in passing yards in any one season.
