With the addition of Jimmy Graham, the Seattle Seahawks now have one of the premier tight ends in the league. Some analysts believe he will have a huge impact on that offense, this writer believes the impact will be less significant, but Gonzalez disagreed.

"“He’s a big target. Blocking, yeah he can improve, no doubt about it. He’s a big guy too. That’s what I’m saying. It’s all desire because he’s 6’6” 255-260 pounds, so you cant tell me you cant block. It’s just about really working on it and finding a way to enjoy it. Or at least take a little pride in it because it’s not fun.” Gonzalez went on to note Graham’s big play ability as well. “He is going to have such an impact on them, especially in that red zone. He’s one of those guys you just throw it to. It doesn’t matter who’s on him. I don’t care if you got two guys on him. He’s 6’6” former basketball player that can catch the ball with his hands. Just throw it up in the air really high and he’ll catch the ball. I think Russell Wilson is starting to figure that out. Just get it in his area and he will go make plays.”"

That’s obviously bad news for St. Louis and the rest of the league. We wrapped things up with the question everyone wants to know the answer too, where are the Rams going to finish in this new look NFC West? The answer wasn’t quite what I had hoped.

"“I think they are going to be better than the 49ers this year, but they are still in a tough division with Seattle and Arizona. I’m not picking them to win the division, I think they probably still stay in that third place in that division. It’s going to be tough and they’re in one of the toughest divisions in the league. They better make sure Nick Foles plays at a high level.” Gonzales mentioned the defense would need to play at a high level to keep the team afloat. “That defense is good. They have one of the best front sevens in the league, so they’re really going to have to rely on that defense, and hopefully Nick Foles can come in there and really help move that ball. They can be OK, but I don’t know if they’re going to get past Arizona or Seattle.”"
