2 more drops that both hurt his team, Seems Graham can only make the money catches when he is in the endzone. Completely reminds me of the Daryl Turner of the late 80's. What was even worse is that 2nd one he got pissed at Russell for putting it towards the back shoulder side even though it was an easy catch ball.
Bye Jimmy. :pukeface:

Finally figured out how to use him in the RZ, but with the drops, poor blocking and only on pace for 580 yards and 11 TD's, definitely not worth $10M. Bring him back for about half that salary and it'll be fine.

That's true. I think Russell still hasn't figured out how to use Grahams size to his advantage.

If I remember correctly, it turns out DT had an actual depth perception issue. Diagnosed AFTER his career.

He only likes to catch TD's. He doesn't trouble himself with routine catches.

:ditto: picking up a 1st down with off coverage is meaningless to him. Making a highlight reel TD catch is much more helpful to his cause to cash in this offseason

It wasn't a easy pass was it?

He got both hands on it without diving. That makes it a DROP

He doesn't really dive to catch the ball. Even in NO.

And the ball wasn't thrown to him it was thrown more to the right I believe.

The pit
Like it or not that is why you have to get him the ball early in the game.
Our clown of an OC Should have figured that out by now. He’s your biggest mismatch, use him like it.
JG has his weaknesses and you have to play around them.

Nobody likes saying but he softer than Charmin Ultra vs rough and tough defences. He used to disappear vs us when he was on the Saints as well.

That's the problem. He's soft. Still a td machine. But if he's not involved he's out to lunch. You knew he was not paying attention anymore when he hadn't had a pass thrown. Plus he gets hit backwards by way smaller dbs. What to do... once again is it that he halfvsucks or bevell sucks. I remember Russ being half suckful earlier and he's not now so...

It was thrown away from the defender. The throw was a little wide, but well within Jimmy's reach with a minimal effort.

Most of us posters here agree with you that Russ has to get the ball to JG early in the game in order to keep him sharp!

I've never liked the guy, specially because of his attitude on the field, but after that look at RW ... enough ... I don't care if he scores 2 TDs each game, I don't want him in this team.

His effort is questionable too often. For instance on one of the picks Russ threw on Sunday, he ran his route and didn't even make an effort to become the defender and knock the ball way due to it being underthrown.

Then the drop on second down. Sure it was low and away, but it hit him square in the hands, and 6'7" guys generally have pretty big mitts.
