The Facts:
Graham is coming off a down year. At least, by his crazy standards. Graham finished with 85 catches for 982 yards and nine touchdowns in 2012. Strong numbers, no doubt, but well off the production of his 2011 season, one of the greatest a tight end ever had. Graham wants to get back to that level. "I'm a hungry player. And this is probably the hungriest I've ever been, to kind of right the wrong of last year, to prove what this team can do and maybe hush up some of the naysayers," Graham said Tuesday. "So for me, it's all work and doing as much as I can to be the best player I can."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
A wrist injury plagued Graham all season, certainly playing a role in his issue with dropped passes. Graham says he's feeling like himself again after surgery in January. "Everything's going well," Graham said. "I've been in rehab and I've been getting stronger. Right now I'm almost 100 percent, so going into camp I'll be 100 percent. And it just feels good. It feels good to be healthy finally and to be back playing like me." As NFL.com's Dan Hanzus suggests, "Look out for Graham. He's healthy and motivated, and he's already proved what he's capable of when he gets locked in with Drew Brees. ..." Hanzus went on to warn readers not to be surprised if he becomes the game's most productive tight end in 2013. We completely agree.
