How hard do we go?

10M for Jimmy Graham is the top AAV for a TE. market seems weird, only 3 making more than 9M AAV, 6 making 8M AAV or more .. but they are all older.
Henry and Hooper are 25. I dont think you can use a 34 year old Jimmy G, or 31 year old Kelce, Ertz, Rudolph etc as comparables.
Dang, the TE market may take a huge jump with two 25 old year players entering FA with teams in demand (assuming Henry makes FA).
---------------------
Legit may take 13M or so to get one these two. Looking at the age of the other top tier TEs and the fact that both of these two can block and catch .... FA is going to be crazy this year.
