Great one handed catch. Didn’t realize he was up there for all time td receptions . He has 78 and currently sits at 31. Only Cane with more is Wayne with 82.

He was also a more complete TE. Graham can't block.
Not that you need to block when you don't even run a route and just snag a 1 handed catch for a TD like that!

Worst career move Jimmy made was going to Seattle
TrumpyCane did not approve that move

He was traded for an OL I believe. Max something. I remember Brees was apparently ****ed about it. Would have really benefited his career to stay with the Saints.
Graham was probably the most fundamentally flawed (basketball) TE we ever had, and the most freakish natural athlete at TE all at the same time. He and Greg Olsen kept the Tight End U stigma going for us in the NFL by themselves. Big reason why we never stopped recruiting great tight ends out of HS during some dark years in my opinion.

Max Unger, yeah. That trade made no sense to me at the time. If you're a run-first offense like Seattle was, why trade an OL for a receiving TE if you aren't going to change your offense? Had the Saints kept Graham, his numbers would have been astronomical

While Jimmy was a beast, on straight athleticism I'd go Njoku.

Imagine if the switch that has been turned on in Russell Wilson had been turned on when Graham was there. Two different QBs.

So am I the only one who watches the replay and see's the DB holding Jimmy's arm with no flag being thrown. Then I remembered I'm a CANE and so is he and it made sense.

Greg Olsen is our TE media guy.
He can make the hall if he out points gronk in the major categories. He will be the direct compare
But I think Graham's got a bit lazy on the field starting in Green Bay. He goes for a lot of one handed catches, even when he can get two on the ball. There was a play last night that Aikman caught, where all Jimmy needs to do is come back a yard for the ball for a 20 yard pickup - and tries to catch it in his chest.
