He might hate Boston, but he is very objective on football matters. I love his work on Sirius. He is not biased. He is a big GIANTS fan. Also, he really loved the AD signing. He said that that was the perfect match.

Adam Schein is a great announcer and a very impartial one I might add.

I think Brady will be fine as a blocking TE but no way is he better than Graham.

Given the depth at TE we can afford to lose Graham, but the unit won't be better, a push if D Thimas develops, which I think he will.

I think we all have rose colored glasses when we look at Graham's blocking due to how he showed up against Peppers and other big names. But, If BB specificly picked out K. Brady, then I'm willing to bet he is good. BB's comment about how having K. Brady out there "was like having another Tackle" is impressive. Brady may be just as good of blocker or better than Graham. I'm willing to bet he'll be able to catch a ball here or there too and not drop them like Graham tended to do last season. When I reflect on Graham's role last year and our previous draft to go TE, I wonder if this was bound to happen. Yeah he had the high character and got the captain status, but he missed a few key blocks here and there and dropped his share of passes (and now he wants to have more of a role in the passing game?). I will say that Graham is a good all around TE with his abilities to block and catch, but I'm ready to move on.

I felt Graham's blocking, from the tape I watched, was suspect from his 2005 injury onwards. He had some problems.

Kyle Brady has probably been the best blocking TE in the NFL over the last decade. On that you'll get very few disagreements. He's another OT out there at the TE position not there to catch passes (he caught all of 5 passes last year I believe) but specifically to block.

As good as Graham was as a blocker he pales in comparison to Brady.

Where Graham has it all over Brady is as a threat in the passing game. When Brady is in the game no defense worries about him as a pass receiver whereas Graham is a legitimate threat that defesnes have to worry about.

Not to mention he comes from a great collegiate program. Now if only we could draft one of those LB from his old alma mater...

Schein also writes several columns on FoxSports.com. I personally am not a huge fan of his mostly because he has far too much personality on Sirius which gets grating listening to him every day. He is a Jets fan and did radio in NY before he went to Sirius. He is a guy who isn't afraid to speak his mind even when it ain't the popular opinion (one thing I do like about him).

I always thought he respected the Pats although not a fan. One team he clearly hates is the Steelers. He has trashed them for a few years now.
