Super interesting. if the money is right, he's an upgrade from Fleener.

Kick the tires, see what he has left in the tank. If need be, bring him back.

Outside of Ben Watson nobody has claimed that starting TE jersey

Gesicki would be one of my picks so far. Sure missing the 2nd round pick now. Gonna be hard to get this guy without a trade or packaging picks but could set the offense if we did.

Lets just make sure we get someone who is the master of his own domain and doesn't try to blame the NFLPA for his contract status. We don't need that kind of drama...

I believe JG would give saints home town savings to be with the hofer Brees on the the last whoo raa. For the 2 hey why not have him back the seas would part in red zone

All the facts point to the NFLPA and their bank of lawyers driving the grievance action. Graham had, in fact, never changed his Twitter description stating that he was an "NFL Tight End".



If I had to fly my single engine fixed wing 3500 miles up mountains to a rainy day city I’d be pissed a little while too

Who are those tight ends?

The list is long but it won't be available officially until after the draft. We may not even need the list if we draft one.

Beast,

I was looking at TE stats from every NFL team in 2017.

Fleener, Hill, Griffin & Housyowatchalic combined for 26 1st downs & 4 tds :rolleyes:.

Jimmy Dickens - 34 1st downs & 10 TD's in a run 1st offense up in Seattle. Even at 32 years old, that's big time production. Imagine him back w/NO & Brees. He doesn't have to be "the man", just a red zone night mare & 3rd down target.

Remember in that Vikings playoff game, we could have sealed their fate if we would have only converted a 1st late in the game. I think Jimmy can help this team get over the hump offensively ... specifically in the red zone and on 3rd downs. Nick Underhill & a few other credible sources think the interest to return is mutual. If it makes sense (financially), he needs to come back & help us win another title. It's been too long :bng:.
