Saints interested in reunion with Jimmy Graham

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I have always liked the idea of Jimmy returning....as long as the price is right. He would give us a dimension that has been missing since he left and add to a potent offence. He and Brees would be back ...

Re: Saints interested in reunion with Jimmy Graham

I have always liked the idea of Jimmy returning....as long as the price is right. He would give us a dimension that has been missing since he left and add to a potent offence. He and Brees would be back in synch immediately. Now that we have a running game, the addition of a strong experienced TE seems like the final missing piece.

Didn’t realize how bad we have been at TE since he left. We rank 31st in TE production since that time

I'd prefer to bring back Ben now that you mention him, I believe he's a free agent as well. A little cheaper and can block.

Is it really likely he comes back?

Re: Saints interested in reunion with Jimmy Graham

How much power will we have to sign if Green Bay, New England, Dallas, and Oakland vie for him? Would he still want to stick it to us by going to Atlanta?

"Dealt without warning?"
Oh yeah the Mickster and the Paytoner should have called and asked if it was alright with him that he get traded.
Happens all the time in the NFL, just ask Belichick!
I'll bet they didn't even help him pack or give him a ride to airport!

You misunderstood me. My point is JG had just signed a 4 year record breaking deal with his only team and was dealt the next season - to his shock, apparently to his QBs shock as well. As in no sign that he would have been dealt.

And even Saints management expected to deal him. If you read back you would know that his part in the Unger and a trade for a 1st round pick was demanded by the Seahawks and not planned by the Saints.

Re: Saints interested in reunion with Jimmy Graham

For the love of Pete man let it go.

My point was that he was not merely a pawn. Your point is that he was.

You lose. You were always going to lose, because your argument only holds water if someone else was in charge of Jimmy's contract. Of course that is ludicrous. We all new that before your last 10 posts or however many you've posted trying to re-frame the debate. Debates don't work that way bro. You're staring to look foolish(er).

Good God man. Just stop. Do you not think anyone who's interested cant simply scroll up to see who's 'demeaning'?

Stop digging dude. Let it go. Deep breaths. You might win a debate against me someday. Today is not the day.

C'mon Man...
