Appeal of Graham ruling not expected | ProFootballTalk
If no appeal is filed, it means that Graham will either sign a long-term deal by Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. ET or be eligible for a one-year, $7 million contract in 2014. With the Saints offering a deal worth $9.5 million per year and presumably at least $15 million if not much more in fully-guaranteed money at signing, it would be a surprise if Graham doesn’t take the rather large bird in the hard. Especially if as of 4:00 p.m. ET he officially stops chasing the much larger bird in the bush.
