New Orleans Saints Must not let Jimmy Graham Reach Free Agency

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1925353-saints-must-not-let-jimmy-graham-reach-free-agency

Jimmy Graham is the best tight end in the NFL right now. The Saints are not trying to lose him as a player. His first 4 yrs of his rookie contract was worth 2.45 million. His new contract increased up to 12.5 million. The Saints are going to do whatever it takes to keep graham on their roster.

I feel that Jimmy Graham is an amazing football player. He has proved that he is the greatest in the league at his position. He deserves every bit of money that he is currently earning.

If you were a franchise owner, would you increase a players pay by 10 million dollars even though you are not guaranteed to a super bowl appearance?

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I,ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life, and that is why i succeed." -Michael Jordan

When you fail or make some type of mistake, you learn from it. Constant failure is how you gain constant knowledge and wisdom. Like in the movie Meet the Robinsons, the motto is keep moving forward. No matter how many times you fail, if you continue to put forth tour best effort you will prevail.

Life is 10% of what happens to you, and 90% of how you react to it.

Life is whatever you make it out to be. In this life, whatever you put into it is what you get out of it. You only live once, so you gotta live it to the fullest. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
