Only time will tell.

The knock coming out of college and in Indy was he drops passes at crucial stages, he killed a ton of drives for us.

Devery Henderson turned from butter fingers to one of the most reliable receivers in our offense, but he had Curtis Johnson who was possibly the best positional coach we've ever had in the SP era.

I'd be happy if we got him at a reasonable rate. But I won't lose any sleep over not getting him, especially since we need a pass rusher (high dollar) and some LB's

Dan Roushar? Aaron Glenn? Aaron Kromer? John Morton?

These guys have been every bit as good as CJ...

I seriously doubt Jimmy would even consider it if it was on the table. He was steamed pretty good about a couple of issues and had an uncommon amount of anger towards the Saints management. Those folks are still there.

He said very similar things to Jahri Evans and Junior freaking Gallette after they were cut as well. I don't have a twitter account and I despise the very notion of Twitter itself, so I can only relate to you his tweets that others have posted here. I'm sure someone could dig them up.

Perhaps little beotch isn't the proper nomenclature. Big beotch is probably the better description.

I do have twitter and I know for a fact that there were no other tweets. You are believing in something that was spread by people that didn't know. You do have access to Google, right? Do a little research instead of listening to people that do not know what they are talking about. Besides that one tweet that I listed and was almost immediately deleted, he was nothing but professional publicly.

Edit: and nobody here has posted any other venomous tweets.

Once again, where are you getting this? Show me anywhere that Graham had an uncommon amount of anger towards management. You too have google. Beyond a couple of on field exchanges between him and Payton over his costing the Saints 15 yards for a TD dunk, there isn't any.

I wouldn't mind having him back, just not for a crazy expensive contract. He has issues staying healthy lately and Brees was a little one dimensional when he was here.

That said, I agree with you. I didn't like how he acted when he left and his social media stuff was kinda annoying. Not as bad as Gallete but still. And he refused to talk to media while he was here for the game this season. Just seems kind of immature.

What social media stuff besides that one deleted tweet that I posted? I've heard a few people talking about it, but it never happened. I have always followed Graham on twitter and facebook and he has always been professional online ... other than that one ill thought tweet that he quickly felt better about.
