@FFD: Jimmy Graham and the Saints remain several million dollars per season apart according to @MikeGarafolo.

@FFD: According to Mike's sources, the Saints are willing to make Graham the highest paid TE in the NFL. Graham wants roughly $12mil per yr.

If he really wants that much...then it's best to just trade him.

All part of negotiations. You highball, they lowball and eventually you meat in the middle. Nothing to see here

All true, say they 'meet in the middle'. 11mil/yr is still too much for me if we could actually get a 1st/3rd (baseline. like i said since revis got the same off a torn ACL)

What he's getting paid next year.
6.8
No f@cking trades.
No f@cking 20mil per year Saints suck for ever because JG is greedy bullsh@t.

If I'm wrong...no gifs for 2 months

Didn't he say he would retire if Drew Brees wasn't his QB?

About that time, Jimmy.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of and yeah frick that.

And I know high ball low ball blah blah blah but even at $10m it seems kind of high(and as high as what would be palatable for me).

Tag him, fight the designation battle, and if we win we win. If we lose leave him on the tag this year(still cheaper than $12m) and see if he actually progresses. If he can be a more complete player and not get bullied by smaller guys than consider paying him. If not then bye.

Holy frick. Bye Jimmy. Thanks for the picks.

Non-exclusive tag time bitches.

Send him to Buffalo or Oakland and see how he fairs.

I'm thinking that the tagging and fight over the designation is probably going to happen before any headway can be made with the negotiations. Depending on which way the NFL rules on the designation will go a long way one way or the other to give one of the sides leverage in the negotiations.
