Saints News, 2/6/14: Is Jimmy Graham The NFL's Top Free Agent of 2014?

Andrew Juge thinks so and I'm inclined to agree. Check out the first linked article below for the other 2014 free agents that made his top 50 list. Who other than Jimmy Graham do you think the Saints might make a play for? We're all in agreement that there's no way the Saints will allow themselves to lose The Graham Reaper, right? Seems to be a given that they'll either agree on a new deal or the Saints will use the franchise tag on him.
