After losing defensive end Patrick Kerney in a bidding war to the Seattle Seahawks, the Denver Broncos weren't going to be outdone.
The Broncos outbid the Seahawks for Patriots tight end Daniel Graham in a negotiation that went well into Tuesday. Graham ended up with a five-year, $30 million deal from the Broncos that included $15 million in guarantees.
As negotiations drew to a close, Graham was torn as to which team was best for him. The idea of getting back to Colorado appealed to him. He went to high school in Denver. But the Seahawks situation was also appealing. They wanted to draft him in the first round in 2002.
Graham's father, Tom, played for the Broncos from 1972-74.
Graham's agent, Tom Mills, didn't shop the offers of either team but in the end he needed to see where the numbers would go. The Broncos stepped up at the ending by offering the most dollars and the most guarantees. Graham took the Broncos deal.
The former first-round choice of the Patriots was considered the top tight end on the free agent market. |

| Graham gets PAID! Good for him, he is a good blocker with decent hands who will play hurt. |

Broncos ALWAYS get good TE's.
Wish the Jets could get a decent TE in the mold of say Gates................... |

| Graham is a soild TE who was asked to block a ton in N.E. He could/should put up good numbers if given the chance. |
