Per Jay Glazer on Twitter, apparently they're working on getting this deal done.

Not very happy about this deal, sure Graham is a great TE, but we will miss Unger

Since this was the first of the two on the potential trade, hopefully it will not be the one locked. Unger could hurt a little but he has been susceptible to injury lately. Not sure about the contract Jimmy Graham has but he has been shown to be a threat. We will see if it gets done

Ah crap. Hate to see Unger go. We were much better with him in there than out.

Well, whatever, TE issue solved. Now - what for center?

My concern is that we don't really know how to use a TE in the first place. Maybe his height would help Russ in the pocket, but beyond that I'm not confident after seeing Zach Miller go from a 60 catch TE to a 33 catch TE after getting here with Bevell at the helm.

Not sure what to think of that. Who replaces Unger? The coaches are always touting Unger for being so knowledgable about protection as compared to the depth behind him. I hope Graham can block. Seems like he's more known as a receiving TE.

Despite our concerns about Graham's "softness", I think we can all be happy with this.

They like their options in the draft for offensive linemen more than they do for tight end.

Why the 1st as well?

Meh, I need to digest this.

Yowsers. Huge talent, but soft and a faux tough guy. Losing Unger hurts, hope there is a back up plan at center.
Not sure if this is an overall plus or overall minus.
