Don't Overlook This Player When Talking About the New Orleans Saints

Devery Henderson, for the vast majority of his career, has been a "yeah, but..." "Yeah, Devery's got great speed, but he runs poor routes." "Yeah, Devery's led the league two of the past three seasons in yards per catch, but he has too many drive-killing drops." Yeah, but not anymore. When Henderson became an unrestricted free agent this past spring, I thought he was long gone. In my mind, the Saints would not want to spend a lot of money for someone who had been no better than their third wide receiver, and Henderson's speed would make him a tempting commodity for any team that badly needed to upgrade their wide receiver corps. Man, was I wrong. Not only was Henderson one of the first free agents to re-sign with the Saints, but he did it to the tune of four years, $12 million. Now I know that's not a whole lot in today's NFL, but it is for a guy who catches the ball twice a game. Even tough he seemed to have improved upon his career...
