Sean Payton uses gut feeling to protect gut of Saints' offense in Jimmy Graham deal

Only time will tell if we won on the Jimmy G trade. Im still butthurt as hell but it will be nice to get more cap room in the future. I think I might even feel better if we didn't make a team in the NFC unbeatable. I might hate them worse than SanFran.

Jimmy Graham could struggle in Seattle. Russel Wilson is not Drew Brees. We'll see how it plays out and undoubtedly Graham will make catches and score TDs, especially in the red zone, but does his poor blocking hurt their run game and does his seeming lack of effort sometimes rub teammates the wrong way? And you are so right. I HATE SEATTLE!

I was thinking about that as well. Drew is one of the best there is at throwing someone open. Wilson is a fine young QB but he won't be able to throw Jimmy open as well as Brees did.

And while Jimmy's blocking isn't anywhere near as bad as people think, he's not great at it either.

I hope your right. Every day that passes Im more on board with the move. If we knock it out in the draft it will be even better.
