Good trade for the Saints if they start rebuilding.

If the pick wasn't 31st, I would be more positive. But I'm surprised Seattle wants Graham, who has played like a pussy in cold weather his entire career.

No more excuses for Struggle now, he needs to start producing like a franchise quarterback on a consistent basis instead of playing like a pussy game manager and expecting Lynch and the defense to bail him out.

There's no doubt that Graham's numbers will take a huge hit in Seattle. He's moving to a run first offense which play half of their games in bad, cold weather, which he has always struggled in. Oh, and yeah he has RW instead of Brees throwing passes to him

A great young QB with a stud TE, now he needs a speed receiver. To do what he's done with subpar receivers, totally amazing.

Graham on a great team, cool for him.

Paul Richardson might be that speed receiver,

No one thinks this am was a bad move for the Saints? Only saved 2m in cap, kept him in the nfc, etc etc

Simeon had to have made a better offer

they're blowing it up... and if you're going to rebuild, the trenches are always a good spot

That's because nobody likes Seattle.

Everyone is failing to mention how often Unger has been injured/hurt as well. The past two seasons he has missed significant time. Although he is a HELL OF A PLAYER that we will miss. Our best OL, even better than Okung IMO. We now have a clear need, and our front office may perceive this draft as having good OL depth because we have glaring needs there, as if it wasn't bad before. I'm just hoping nobody dies in practice because of the bad blood between Graham and our defense :lol

Graham is a great talent, but he's soft, injury prone, one dimensional, and overpaid. I'm glad he was moved because his salary sucks long-term. Maybe he will rediscover his passion in Seattle, but his shoulder was severely messed up. Oh and he's gay too.

Great trade for the Hawks! Unger is good, but he only played 6 games last year!

Indeed. Great player, but the past two seasons he has been consistently missing games.

A trade for the Seahawks.

Seattle lacked a dynamic passing game last year and I think this gives them a chance at more big plays in the passing game. No doubt this is a great trade.

I liked what Paul Richardson was giving us towards the end of the season. I think this will be interesting. No excuse now for Bevell and Wilson. Time to put up.

Pelican boy, why don't you trade Brees? You could get an abundance of draft picks (Hershel Walker part 2?). Or is NO too fragile of a sports town

Once you start making more money than me, then you call me a boy you dirty Pollack.

Anyway, back to your dumb European social awkwardness type of question.

No team would ever give up the amount of picks Dallas got from Minnesota for someone Brees's age and contract.

Brees is still one of the best and Payton won't trade him away especially without someone ready to take over like Young was for Montana or Rodgers for Favre.
