Graham needs a number of factors to be successful. OBJ is a play-maker, and really only needs to have a shot at the ball. Graham used to be like that but he has taken a step backwards in commanding his presence on the field. Not sure if he's still rehabbing his injury, couldn't establish a rhythm because Brees couldn't establish a rhythm, or both.

The Manning > Beckham Jr. match-up has the potential to be one of the most lucrative QB/WR match-ups in NFL history. Almost like Cunningham > Carter or Young > Rice. Exciting years ahead for New York.

The thing about Graham is he hasn't learned the finer details of playing a receiver yet, which he should be picking up on by now. So many times that Brees is throwing to him the ball is forced, and many times Graham is the reason it is being forced. If he learns to cut off routes and break down tendencies of defenders, he'll be better at spotting gaps in coverages. That's one thing that Tony Gonzales did so well that Graham simply hasn't acquired the taste for.
