We have been evaluating Graham's value as a Tight End, what is his value as the "sixth offensive lineman?" If Matt Light is good for a 5 year/$27M deal, is Graham's 'shades of Hannah' blocking in that range? What makes an elite Tight End? Are 80 catches a year the only standard? With a new look backfield, is blocking skill at Tight End going to be a more important factor in the value assessment? I'd think it at least rates a 50/50 split, as beautiful as a Ben Watson 30 yard reception is, a 30 yard Dillon/Maroney scamper is it's equal.
Time to get back into my cozy corner and watch the fur fly.
Box: Your man-crush on Grambo is getting a little unhealthy.....
I just think that he is going to want more money and get franchised and then traded. He seems to be hinting at that already, if you believe the rumors.
And if you don't like rumors, then look at the track record for the Pats FO. They ain't overpaying anybody and they will have a very clinical assessment of Grambo's value.
I think they will offer him what he is really worth to the team, but that nevers seems to be enough for these young whipper-snappers.
