re: Saints should tag & trade Jimmy

I think u could def get 2 firsts for jimmy. He's a differbece maker and if you traded him to the rams or the browns who I think both have 2 number ones this year u do it and that makes their team revelant and gets people excited. Get a 1st this year and next as well as a 4th. He's worth that. I love jimmy but I'd trade him for that package. Imagine the browns with jimmy and Jordan Cameron. Matchup night mare as well as josh Gordon. Decent qb top 5 offense

The Browns do have two first round picks. They have the 4th and the 26th. More importantly than having another weapon to go with Gordon, they need the most important position filled.

The Browns will likely be going after Manziel, or Bridgewater. They desperately need a quarterback. So, they likely will not trade the 4th pick of the draft. I would not trade Graham for a late first. No chance.

I totally agree.

I don't know enough about cap space, but doesn't this question start coming down to, "would you rather have Graham or Jordan"?

I'd rather have Cam Jordan. I love Graham, but if he's going to demand WR money, then it doesn't make sense. He's got limitations. I know a true #1 WR would have made a huge difference and I would like to see that play out.

But to get 2 1st rounders, I think would be the best choice as an organization. Maybe not best "fan choice", but smart.

If we have enough room to sign Graham to big money and sign Jordan to big money, then forget what I said

The Browns, should they hire Cam Cameron, would probably go after Mett, who would fall a bit because of the injury. We're looking at second or third round, and they have two third rounders. So them trading both of their first round picks isn't completely off the table, but I've gotta wonder if they'd do it. I could see them trying to shop the 4th to move down a bit, pick up an extra pick later on, and then MAYBE trading something like the 12th pick and the 26th pick, but I wouldn't bet on that happening.

It may be best to trade him though, even if you couldn't get two firsts this year, if he wants to act that way about the money, let it be someone else's problem.

Also, for all of those expecting two first round picks: it's not happening. Trying to find if any team has ever given up the pair of first round picks for a franchised player and can't find any instances of it happening.

Also, in the unlikely event that we refuse to deal Graham for less and force a team to outbid us for Graham + give up 2 first round picks, the picks would come in consecutive drafts. It also has to be a team's own pick, not one acquired via trade (so no 2x 2014 firsts from the Browns, it would be their pick at 4 and their 2015 first (no chance they would give both of those up for Graham when they already have a top ~5 TE.)

That will not happen. I just do not see it.




Who do you see offering two first round picks for him?

Your 5 year TD birthday is coming up, Goat.

I'm thinking tube socks.

The Saints won the Super Bowl without Graham. He is a great player whose talent is magnified by Drew Brees.

Would you rather the Saints have the chance to spend/draft multiple weapons on offense or are you content with paying 1 guy the lion's share? Think big picture here.
