His comments on twitter told me.

I'd love to have Graham back. Cooks, Thomas, Snead and Graham would be an amazing receiving corp.

I don't think it'll happen though. Even if the Seahawks cut him, he'll still get a pretty penny on the open market.

You did watch the video? You did read the comment that he had another decleater like that earlier in the game? You have read and do realize that Seattle would not throw him the ball (include him in offense) until he learned to block and gained the respect of his teammates? Don't know if he'd want to even come back (assuming he'd be released), but he'd definitely be an upgrade over Fleener and damn near the same cost...

Dude if he comes back at a reasonable rate, why not? How does it hurt to add another weapon. My guess, however, is Seattle extends and renegotiates. Who knows, but I don't see JG coming back. If he does though, who is going to complain. He doesn't drop them like the almighty fleecer

Fleener has issues but one year there has been signs of hope for next year. While his play on the other hand makes his chance of cashing in on the big bucks in the final 2 years of his mighty thin. Next year is all about the money for both parties.

Cap - dead
2018 $8,000,000 $4,800,000
2019 $9,000,000 $3,200,000
2020 $9,100,000 $1,600,000

Jimmy Graham $10 million cap hit (no dead money involved).

that is amazing. Saints proved one thing. Get that tall TE and enjoy the match up issues they cause. throw it up and hang them out to dry early and often. their shelf life is short so strike while the trade value is good and before they become part of the annual IR rotation

I would not sign him. not for that kind of money. prove you can stay healty contract would be an option

Saints want a solution? trade down pocket some picks and draft
O.J. Howard TE Alabama 6055 251 4.57 #88 Sr

Now you have your out in 2018 to dump Fleener and up grade the blocking in one move. If all works out well then so be it. Fleener does not appear to be the type of player to thrive in a duel TE system. It was a failure in Indi.

At no other point did Graham come close to being "a little beotch."

Was it a failure because of him or the coaching?
