This was pretty hilarious actually.
"Could you please move to the other side of the field to practice?"
"I'm Jimmy!"
"Who's Jimmy?(I don't know no Jimmy). "

Ya you know Jimmy Eagle! The Jimmy that had the most receiving TD'S in 2013. The same Jimmy that had one catch for 8 yards yesterday. That Jimmy.

Michael Bennett is right about what he said though (and it's why Graham was left off the top 100 list this last year BTW), Graham is in fact, soft. Or rather, more specifically, he's a HORRIBLE blocker, one of the worst blocking TE's I've ever seen in my life. Not an exaggeration at all. He is literally the single worst blocking TE I've ever seen in the NFL.

That's why every single time the Saints run, they take him out (which BTW makes their offense predictable). Whenever he comes out onto the field, you KNOW it will be pass, that's guaranteed.

So while yes he's a matchup nightmare, and has nice hands, and great ability to use his height and wingspan and hops to go up and get passes, he's also a detriment in other ways, and is in fact, just as Bennett said, OVERRATED!!!
Again, I guarantee that's why he was left off that top 100 list as voted on by the players. Remember how no one in the media understood how he got left off? (The same media who is convinced that Lane Kiffin is an "offensive genius" BWAHAHA! Man the media is stupid!)
Dude is soft, can't block to save his life, and consequently OVERRATED!!!

In the NO paper, Graham told reporters that every time Seattle kicked field goals, the wind was perfectly calm and would suddenly kick up and go crazy when the saints tried to do the same. I wonder if any fan at the game could verify that or call complete b.s. I find it hard to believe myself.

Didn't you know, we pump in wind too?

That's pretty much what the guy was trying to imply, lol. Maybe next Sunday we can pump in some focused sunlight at just the right place/time too.

I think you are thinking of an old bud Light commercial

Graham is an oversized WR trying to play TE. He is a gifted athlete but he's not an in-line TE.

Bennett is right.

We've shut him down twice now...obviously, if you have the talent on D you can take him out. Philly actuallly did a good job on him also.

I'm more concerned about his hair; I'm not down with the red afro thing. It makes him look creepy! 8-)

Right! I was there, watching the whole deal go down. He's one strange looking dude. Fun to see the Hawks shut him up when it counted. 1 catch?? Maybe two, but I cant recall. I was drinking!
