Beast Mode and Graham in the same offense is not going to be fun to cover.

The Saints & Seahawks are trying to finalize trade Jimmy Graham + a 4th rounder for Max Unger + Seattle first rounder

Just heard that myself. Looks like Wilson will have his first high end target that isn't a head case.

I just wonder if this deal actually happens then how do they lock up Wilson and Wagner long-term. Seems like they are getting pretty darn top heavy in Cap Spendings

The Saints should be looking to trade Brees as well...

Wow, good move if it happens and it might make Seattle the favourites for the Super Bowl next year.

This is really bad news for my Cards too… we have struggled covering TE's over the last couple years. This won't help.

The cap space taken off Unger's contract and what they would've paid their first rounder help make it possible. I did not see this coming.

Uhhh.....wow?

I know our FO has been working on landing a top flight receiving TE for a while, but I didn't see THIS coming.

Holy shit, I did not see this coming. I have a feeling they'll trade Brees too.

Seattle has money cause they haven't really gone crazy in FA recently, thats how you get over budget. They draft extremely well, they pay their own, and well, JS is magic....

dont hate the 4th for 1st pick swap either. JS is nails in the 4th round, his first rounders have been shaky at best historically.

I hate to say it, but this was a brilliant move by your FO. Wilson really needed another weapon to throw to and Graham is one of the best in the game. This move almost feels like they're targeting the Cardinals weakness of covering big TE's, lol. Damn you guys.

Not that bad. Graham + 4th for Unger + 1st.

Unger was an all pro center 2 years ago but he's been injured off and on and JeanPierre stepped in pretty well for Unger last year. Seattle may know something about his injuries. Unger is -4.5M to Graham's +8M but you lose the 1st so that saves 1.5-2. So end of day Seattle is paying about another 1.5-2M for Graham.

Graham IMO comes off a bit soft at times, but he's still a top 2 TE in the league and a matchup nightmare for a lot of teams that aren't equipped like Seattle's D to handle him.

This is a FAR superior trade to the Harvin trade 2 years back.
