Daniel Graham to be tagged - Page 3 - The Orange Mane

I wouldn't give Graham huge money, but I know I'd rather have him than Alexander.

This is bogus. There is nothing anywhere even hinting this.

So what? Whatever deal Graham signs with the Broncos will be CHEAPER on the cap than Alexander/Jackon's cap charge this year.

Yes they both count around $2million. We cut both of them, save $2million worth of space and use it for Graham's cap charge this year.

Not only do we save a roster spot because Graham can block and catch better than both these chumps, but we get a locker room leader with great intanglibles and solve our TE problems for a couple of years with Schef/Graham.

I mean you DO realize that Alexander is a FA after 2007. We'll have to sign another TE then anyway. Why not do it now with one of best blocking TEs out there and actualy make our two TE set a threat rather than a joke?

I've had enough of this team carrying 5/6 TEs every season and all of them sucking.

The window for NFL teams to designate franchise or transitional players opened yesterday, and closes on Feb. 22. But there was no news on which player the Patriots might tag. CB Asante Samuel and TE Daniel Graham are most likely to be designated as the team’s franchise player. However, Samuel and his agent Alonzo Shavers, are on the record as saying that the fourth-year corner would not be happy if he were to be franchised. As for Graham, there are rumblings that he wants out of New England, but neither he nor his agent, Jack Mills, have said anything publicly.
