FANTASY FOOTBALL TIGHT ENDS NUMBER 2: JIMMY GRAHAM

There’s a lot of talk about the Seahawks run game set to take away Jimmy Graham’s targets, especially in the red zone (heck, last year Marshawn Lynch was targeted more in the air than the Seahawks tight end Luke Wilson), but the Seahawks acquired Graham for a reason.

He may not match his 125+ targets from the last three years in New Orleans, but double-digit touchdowns are still probable. He nursed a shoulder injury through all of 2014 and still put up ten touchdowns and almost 900 yards.

A healthy Graham might produce more than the naysayers think when he arrives in Seattle. Russell Wilson isn’t Drew Brees, but he’s a great quarterback who will most definitely take advantage of having a guy like Graham on the field. Expect Graham to instantly become one of Wilson’s favorite targets.

Graham is absolutely one of the best tight ends in the NFL, and if he is still available in the third round, it’d be wise to draft him.
