The Saints' multi-faceted vertical passing game, with its emphasis on creating mismatches and exploiting coverage, stands out as an ideal offensive system for a tight end of Graham's caliber.
He can immediately contribute as a pass-catching threat, developing into a Pro Bowl-caliber 'Y' tight end with All-Pro potential.
A run-heavy, traditional smashmouth offense that primarily utilizes the tight end as an in-line blocker would significantly diminish his value.
Graham's rare combination of size, athleticism, and basketball background makes him a formidable weapon in the passing game, particularly in systems that prioritize vertical threats and red-zone targets.
Selected #95 overall in Round 3 of the 2010 NFL Draft by New Orleans Saints out of Miami (FL).
