He's a slot receiver, realistically. A very good one, but that's what he is. For some schemes, that's good enough for a TE. For teams like us, or the Hawks, we need an actual TE. Exactly. He was a fit in New Orleans. He's not a fit here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how many Saints fans were happy that they got rid of him. If Graham is all that then why would they be thrilled about getting rid of him? I figured it was due to cap space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Graham an upgrade from what we have tho? Idk much ab him as a person is he a doosh? I don't mean tocome off like I'm president of the Graham fan club or something I simply see him as an upgrade which is all I care about, the Falcons getting better Edited February 19, 2016 by MoFalconsFan56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must've had that situation all wrong cuz I thought they Tagged him. Idk I thought the whole situation was over money and instead of paying him big $ they traded him. I was glad he left til they killed us w Watson Edited February 19, 2016 by MoFalconsFan56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An underperforming pass rush. At a minimum I think Tamme could hold down the fort, but it'd be nice to go get that guy out of San Diego. Oh yes! O'line and linebackers. I agree and also know it's gunna be another year before we can really get into this super bowl. It take's time, but it will be fun to watch DirtyBird.

AndySG Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Graham was very good at being on the same page as Brees and getting in space. He was never a guy who made the 8 yard catch with a linebacker hanging off him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
