New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham was arrested in Southern California on Friday night after his erratic behavior attracted attention by police.
Graham suffered a “seizure,” according to a Saturday statement from the NFL’s Saints. He was briefly hospitalized after his arrest and is back with the team.
“New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham experienced a medical episode last evening, which resulted in him becoming disoriented. He was taken into custody by local authorities and transported to a local hospital for evaluation for what Dr. John Amoss believes to be a likely seizure and spent the night under medical supervision and testing. Amoss met Graham at the hospital and is overseeing his care at this time. He was released this morning and is with the team as they continue preparations for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers.”
Police reportedly received a call about a suspicious person exhibiting erratic behavior.

The transition from any sport to the NFL is a tough one. While there have been a reasonable amount of success stories of transitioning from one sport to the NFL, there are even more stories of failure. It’s just not that easy to pull it off. Jimmy Graham is a great example as is Chris Hogan on the Patriots. These guys were basketball and lacrosse players respectively. However, if there’s one sport where you’d think the transition might be easier, it’s Rugby. While Rugby isn’t exactly Football, it’s got some key elements that are extremely similar. Players are tackled (only

As mentioned previously, fantasy football leagues cannot be won simply for picking the right player at the beginning of the draft. Fantasy leagues are won by getting the most value of the mid- and late-round picks, as well as snagging some big players off the waiver wire throughout the course of the year. Odell Beckham, Jr., the wide receiver for the New York Giants, went undrafted, but was on nearly one third of Espn fantasy football championship rosters, which is more than Jamaal Charles, who mostly went first overall. You can, however, lose your league in the opening rounds by choosing incorrectly. People who drafted Adrian Peterson or Montee Ball in the first round basically had their seasons end mere weeks into the season.
We looked at 10 sleepers from picks 75 and lower. Now we will look at the first 75 picks of the draft and find 10 players...

There are still five months to go until the 2015 NFL season kicks off, but the excitement is building ahead of the 2015 Draft which promises to jolt the fans into life.
The crazy off-season looks set to continue after the free agency period has already seen some game-changing trades go through. Saints icon Jimmy Graham swapped New Orleans for a place on the Seattle Seahawks roster, hard-man Ndamukong Suh moved to the Dolphins, and Cowboys’ star running back DeMarco Murray headed to the Eagles.
But while those huge deals have gone through, there’s still plenty more business to be done around the league, with the draft set to offer the chance for college football’s finest graduates to shine on the biggest stage.
For many in the UK, the idea of graduating straight from university into a professional team is virtually unthinkable, but America’s highly organised...
