Seahawks GM John Schneider: Jimmy Graham will return in 2016

Jimmy Graham's first season with the Seattle Seahawks didn't exactly go as planned.

The former New Orleans Saints star tight end became the most discussed acquisition of the Seahawks' last offseason after Seattle traded Pro Bowl center Max Unger and a first-round draft pick to the Saints in exchange for Graham's services in March.

The blockbuster move was supposed to give Seattle and quarterback Russell Wilson a new dimension to the passing game: A 6-foot-7 matchup nightmare who thrives in the red zone and has a propensity for making spectacular leaping catches, even with defenders draped all over him.
