I'd disagree a little bit, though the gist of your point is well taken. I think Graham is an outstanding blocking TE but
no better than average receiver. I've always held my breath whenever they threw to Graham. If it was a nearly impossible catch to make, he stood a chance to make the catch. But if it was a routine, normal throw - which most Brady passes are - I've seen him drop too many of those to be comfortable with him as a receiver.
But a very, very good blocker as you say.
Good for him though that he got a big payday. He works hard.
