Jimmy Graham, Chicago Bears

I know no Saints’ fan has forgotten about Jimmy Graham. The tight end that started his monstrous career with the New Orleans Saints looked like he was on pace to be a Hall of Famer with the black and gold.

That was until the Saints traded him. He played with the team from 2010 to 2014. During those years he was a three-time Pro-Bowl selection. He also has a career-high year in 2013 catching 1,215 yards and 16 touchdowns leading to a first-team All-Pro vote.

After the Saints traded him for Max Unger and FILL to the Seattle Seahawks, his career continued to take steady declines. He did make his way back to the Pro Bowl in 2016 and 2017 with the Seahawks, but he never again surpassed 1,000 receiving yards in a season.

This year, he finds himself with the Chicago Bears. Through six games, Graham has already caught four touchdowns proving to be a red-zone threat. If he keeps that up, he will have his fifth 10 touchdown season.
