Okay, we all know Graham is gone, and that leaves some big shoes to fill in the Saints offense. My question is, do you guys think Josh Hill will be someone who will thrive in Jimmy's place? Do you think he'll get a lot of passes thrown his way, or do you think he'll just have average production?

I don't know about thriving but I can certainly see 50/600/6 to be realistic.

I have a feeling we'll see the pre-Jimmy Graham era Drew Brees, where he'll throw to like 10 different guys each game. Once Jimmy got going, Drew would target him more than anyone else, even in double and triple coverage.

Shoe in for a top 10 TE with upside of top 5

Will be over drafted more than likely, but could return dividends

Brees likes his big targets in the redzone, i could see Hill's value being TD-dependent.

It's he and Colston now, not many big targets in the passing game. Could see him collecting 8-9TDs but maybe only 40-50catches on the season

Good Sleeper Pick?


Only if you aren't reaching wildly in the 3rd-5th rounds.

6th-7th? I could see an argument. Anything earlier than that and you are being a homer in my opinion.

The later the better IMO. If he generates 50-65% of Jimmy G's customary numbers I'll call it a success.

He will probably be the 3rd TE drafted since 90% of the world thinks he is a " sleeper"

Just like jimmy graham was years ago though, and he turned out to be worth it, time will tell if the guy who gets laughed at for taking Hill in the 4th round next year turns out to be wise.

Man outside of Gronk, TE looks like a shite show.

Graham is off to a run heavy offense and Julius took his talents to football hell.

Think I'm just going to target a few guys in the later rounds and hope to hit gold.

jordan cameron (Miami) could be a decent pickup in the later rounds.

but he could also get his dome rocked and suffer yet another concussion.

isn't that the thing with him?

He's also the teams #1 offensive weapon now.

Julius over Hill IMO. I will also consider picking up San Diego TE Green.

Why Green from SD? They still have Gates
