Jimmy Graham to be traded to Seattle Seahawks

Graham can't stay healthy and they gave up a player and a first round pick. Not impressed.

Gotta give Seattle credit they keep trying to add speed and play makers to their offense. Didn't work out with Harvin and that didn't make them scared. Just try again with another player.

The last 36 hours have sucked ass!

dude, even if we had the cap room, Baalke and the front office just do not like to use money on free agent players ... we believe in signing our very own, but the problem is that our game planning sucks so badly..

Crabtree, Iupati, and other free agents shoulda been traded last year and the year before if we had NO plans on signing them!!

Just look at the move Seattle made with Percy, they traded for him and did NOT CARE about the 1st round that was given up, and Percy helped the team win its 1st Super Bowl.. Baalke, thinks differently.. he thinks that he can always LAND a DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH type of player..

The 49ers from the 80s and 90s, they didn't wished upon a star that such player will become a star.. they pointed at the good players, targeted them, and went to get them by any means...

Baalke just sucks!!!

We coulda signed Suh, and still sign Revis now, but nope, he's putting his money on the players he drafted the last 2 to 3 years and hope that they will become Suh and Revis.. and then, watch them leave via free agency because they wont be worth the money they'll be asking for..

s**t just keeps getting worse.....

Hold on... so the Saints are trading their best weapon for an olineman and a 1st rounder? My guess is they try to replace Jimmy through the draft and HOPE they can get someone decent... how the hell can Seattle even afford Jimmy?? I'm confused...

Jordan Cameron maybe?

Cameron is a one year wonder.

Usually dont, but kinda agree with you here...a little...

That's how winners do it.

Allen is the best GM in business right now. Drafts well and gets trades done. ITs going to be difficult seeing Graham now.

Or he's mortgaging the future on the next 1-2 years before they begin their own purge.

If they don't get it, this trade will haunt them

At 4 years, $40M too.

Do we know how many draft picks they gave? I know it was a 1st and at least 2-3 more

31st pick, starting C, Max Unger and this contract. I don't know what the "multiple picks" are though.

All the reports I've seen is it's just a 1st

Graham has missed 2 games in his entire career.

My only question is how Graham fits their offense. He's not physical, so he's probably not much of a blocker. Seattle is a physical, run-first team... Graham is more of a finesse guy. He'll be a devastating red zone target though.

Just like the Washington Redskins!

disagree. Bowman has proven to be better. Willis a better tacklers.

This. Bowman was out in coverage on 3rd downs most of the time but if he cant make it all the way back then drafting an ILB with top notch cover skills becomes a must.
