So the value isn't crazy there at all.  Money is probably moreso...I get that.  But like you said, it's not an insane proposition at all.  Same as you, I'm not advocating for this to happen or in any way think it will, just don't think it's a ridiculous suggestion by any stretch of the imagination. Pointing out that Graham could blow out his ACL in Week 5 is pointless.  This applies to every player and potential draft pick.  Our 2010 and 2011 first round picks have both missed basically the last two seasons with injuries, and our 2012 and 2013 first round picks have been hampered by injuries that have made them less effective than they would normally be.</blockquote>
