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

Danno · 03-26-2015, 05:13 PM

Lost pro bowl Tight End
Added pro bowl Center

Lost 4th round draft pick
Added 1st round draft pick

Biggest weakness on offense last year - Center

I'm just a couch potato GM but every way I look at that deal we came out ahead.

Agreed. Plus we deleted a guy who's effort was, in my opinion, sometimes in question. That can be contagious. I'm hoping we see a team next year that fights on every play, every down and for every yard.

I think both teams "won" the deal. Both players need to play at a "Pro Bowl" level. I'd give the edge to us pending what happens with the 31st pick.
