Brandon Graham

After being tragically miscast during the majority of his career, Graham finally got a chance to shine as a defensive end in Jim Schwartz' "Wide 9" defensive scheme. His 5.5 sacks last year aren't overly impressive on the surface, but his strong tackle production lifted him to a top 15 finish and he graded out as the league's #2 edge rusher behind All-Pro Kahlil Mack. He led the NFL in QB hurries with 40, which is another sign that there's plenty of untapped upside with Graham. This said, upper echelon tackle production along with double-digit sacks is a reasonable projection for him this season.

Brandon Graham denies rumors of holding out

When Brandon Graham was absent from the Eagles' voluntary workouts last week, rumors started flying that he was upset with his current contract situation. On Tuesday, Graham returned back to the Eagles facility and denied all rumors of a possible contract dispute.

Fantasy Impact

Graham is coming off one of his best seasons in his career. Although he was criticized for only having 5.5 sacks, Graham finished with the second-most pressures and third-most knockdowns last season. With some big offseason additions on the D-line, there is less pressure on Graham, making him even more of a threat for quarterbacks. If he completes his rushes this season, his sack numbers could be huge.
