re: saints have traded jimmy graham to seattle

Fact is Jimmy was the flashy toy that's nice to have when other, more important parts of the team, aren't fricking you over. The Saints interior OL was atrocious last year. The Saints are predicated on having a good interior OL because Drew steps up a lot and his stature. Also, Jimmy was a fricking cancer. I have always said I'd hate him if he wasn't on the saints. He doesn't block in the run game and goes away in games against physical defenses. I think the saints are trying to become a more balanced, physical offense with the limitations of Drew getting older in the back of their mind. I don't know the specifics of Unger's contract, but I'd imagine this clears some cap space.

This. He was a luxury on a team missing fundamental pieces. I'd rather have a solid, stable offensive line and a decent TE corps than a star TE and a balsa wood offensive line. Not to mention the money now available to use on defense.
My only regret is that we traded to a powerful team in the NFC.
