Seahawks will be better because they lost Jimmy Graham
Jimmy Graham might potentially be a Hall of Fame tight end. But the Seahawks are better off without him.
The Seattle Seahawks never needed Jimmy Graham. And Jimmy Graham never needed the Seahawks. Seattle traded center Max Unger to the New Orleans Saints three years ago for Graham. Seattle should regret the move the most.
Still, Graham has to feel that he would have been better off with a team that fit his unique skill set. Sure, he caught 10 touchdown passes in 2017, but that was about all he did. He set a career low for yards-per-catch and dropped passes. Was part of this his fault? Yes. But was part of Graham’s numbers Darrell Bevell’s system? Of course.
