Young, it's about HOW they used him. The league actually makes rules about this type of stuff.He IS a te, I agree, but within the nfl rulebook, he's considered a wideout.Legalities. You know the nfl loves 'em...
TE in name only IMO.
how come graham was never complaining while he was racking up pro bowl nods as a TE? odd.
He does have a good point though. I saw the stats the other day and he has a ridiculous amount of receptions as a TE. Its only like 30 or thereabouts for the whole season. Most of his receptions were at wideout and the slot. I think he has a good chance of winning the appeal.
I would be interested to see how that varies from league average TE. Blocking TEs don't make a lot of receptions, and move TEs make most of their receptions from the slot, so Graham's % might not be significantly different than the average.
Doesn't bother me tho. Tag him as a WR and don't hammer out a deal. Less money for New Orleans to make moves with.

Either way, they get a boat load of picks, or a baller.F'n lucky basterds.
You don't tag a player as anything. You put the tag on him and the NFL decides his position.
