boyst Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 They wouldn't answer the call. 2 1sts or a 1st & 2 2nds to have a chance at Jimmy. would would it take/they want for a package with SJ13? If there was an elite QB in the league (Brees, Brady, Manning, Roethlisberger, Rivers, maybe a few others) Brees would work best with Johnson.

Kirby Jackson Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 would would it take/they want for a package with SJ13? If there was an elite QB in the league (Brees, Brady, Manning, Roethlisberger, Rivers, maybe a few others) Brees would work best with Johnson. SJ13, a 1st and a 2nd or 3rd. Stevie would be great with Brees (he is a good Lance Moore) but Graham would still be really costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 where is this talk about SJ13 being out of Buffalo? But I'd go with Kirby's trade. Plus we could draft a safety. Would have to resign Jim Leonard if no Byrd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 SJ13, a 1st and a 2nd or 3rd. Stevie would be great with Brees (he is a good Lance Moore) but Graham would still be really costly. With colston and Moore in not sure they want another possession receiver as much as a guy that can take the top off a defense is another consideration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 With colston and Moore in not sure they want another possession receiver as much as a guy that can take the top off a defense is another consideration I don't think that they do either. Stills kind of fills the big play role. I'm not sure that they would want Stevie but I think that he would be good with Brees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 the saints will tag him as a TE Graham will file his grievence. the two sides will agree on a contract before the grievence is heard.

Kirby Jackson Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Saints are tagging Graham according to ESPN I heard something the other day that the NFL actually designates the position when a player is tagged not the team? Can anyone confirm or deny that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Is he right? check this out. Of course he's right. Teams love to crap on players and pinch pennies. Yet the second a player tries to stand up for themselves, some fans jump on the players for being greedy. This is the most violent sport around that is one of the biggest money makers in this country. Yet, the players don't even have guaranteed contracts. The fact that they are trying to penny pinch on one of the best players in the sports (a self made player who made himself into a star) is a joke. Jimmy, come to the Bills. We'll play you a like a wr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Of course he's right. Teams love to crap on players and pinch pennies. Yet the second a player tries to stand up for themselves, some fans jump on the players for being greedy. and yet, hop on any of his personal website, twitter account, facebook, etc... and tell me what position "the jimmy graham" lists for himself. his long term deal will end up being little to do with "position" and much more about comparable players anyway, but for the tag i think its completely fair to tag him as a TE. I believe 2 of the 5 tight ends that make up the tag number were split wide more than 50% even. Edited February 28, 2014 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Report: Graham to file immediate grievance if tagged as tight end. http://profootballta...d-as-tight-end/ Good luck, Jim. What arbitrator is going to set that precedent? Of course he's right. Teams love to crap on players and pinch pennies. Yet the second a player tries to stand up for themselves, some fans jump on the players for being greedy. This is the most violent sport around that is one of the biggest money makers in this country. Yet, the players don't even have guaranteed contracts. The fact that they are trying to penny pinch on one of the best players in the sports (a self made player who made himself into a star) is a joke. Jimmy, come to the Bills. We'll play you a like a wr. I think his argument is that the Saints are playing him as a WR. That's his whole beef actually...... Anyway, if he's a WR, he should be payed like a 10th to 15th ranked WR, not a top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if he's a WR, he should be payed like a 10th to 15th ranked WR, not a top 5. Jimmy Graham is a bad as he can, and he knows he's the best. He wants to play this hybrid WR position because he knows he cannot play on the line. I say the Saints go all out dirty, resign him and then play him every pass play as a blocking tight end. Mostly because it'd be hilarious to watch the fallout from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
