Another example of why players would make terrible GM's. Gotta feel for the guy but he has to realize his contract money's coming from somewhere...

I don't mean this offensively to you personally, but why exactly does anyone have to feel for Jimmy?

I don't blame him for being upset about it. It's more likely that has mad because they are his buddies.

That being said, putting that on Twitter looks really bad no matter what organization he's with in the future. Should've kept it to himself.

I was typing and had to stop to take care of the baby. When I finished and hit post I saw how foolish I looked.

Please leave me be alone in my shame.

Maybe so. Just think it was dumb of him to tweet that.

None taken. Obviously nobody has to feel for him, but my point was it's understandable why he'd be upset. He's only been in the league for a few years, all with the same offense and mostly the same guys. Now a lot of those guys/his friends are getting cut. He's always been a loyal teammate (remember him saying he'd never play for another QB?) so this isn't surprising.

But he has to realize... this is mostly for him.

Gotcha. I guess I understand why he's upset given that he's new at foosball and these are his buds, but again, I just think he shouldn't have tweeted.

Do players not understand how the salary cap works?


75% of players don't even own a bank account when joining the league. 80% are bankrupt 2 years out of the league. Do you really think they know how a salary cap works?

Jimmy is coming across as a huge idiot.

This thread only proves how fans look at football like a video game. Saints cut 2 team leaders today. Whether it is rightfully so or not, these guys are humans. Our younger players looked up to these guys. These players made tons of plays for our team over many years.

Jimmy Graham cant be disappointed to lose veterans im sure he looked up to? This isnt cutting 2 players in your Madden Video game.

Yes, he wants a lot of money. He deserves it. It's not Jimmy's fault we're in cap hell.

It's a business. Keep your feelings out of it. He's in it for the $$$. He shouldn't be surprised that his boys got cut to make space for his contract.
