Graham could be seeking $12M per on next deal
Jimmy Graham - TE - New Orleans Saints
Feb. 21, 2013 - 10:40 PM ET

According to Yahoo! Sports, Jimmy Graham could seek up to $12 million annually on his next contract.

A league source tells Jason Cole that Graham is keeping a close eye on the Jared Cook case in Tennessee where he's staring at the franchise tag. The franchise number for tight ends is $6 million, while the franchise number for a wide receiver is just north of $10 million. Cook is expected to seek the receiver money if he indeed is tagged, and it's "important" to Graham that Cook wins that fight. Both Cook and Graham line up more in the slot than on the line. Graham is entering the final year of his rookie deal, and he's due just $1.323 million.
