The Facts:
Graham still has one season left on his contract, but with "Cadillac" Williams' uncertain health stemming from a serious knee injury, coupled with the standout's loyalty to the Bucs, he is optimistic Tampa Bay will give him an extension and increase his $512,520 annual contract. Williams reportedly is earning $1.37 million annually. "Time will tell. Hopefully, I did enough for a new contract," Graham said after Sunday's game. "It's a business and I'm not an expert on it, so we'll see how it goes."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Instead of backing up Williams and Michael Pittman, injuries to those players thrust Graham into the lineup where he became Tampa Bay's most productive back in several years. He finished this season with 961 yards and 11 TDs (including Sunday's 24-14 playoff loss to the Giants), having three 100-yard rushing games, plus setting a team record for consecutive games with a touchdown (six) along the way.
