Now, whether or not it was due to him having an off-year is beyond my deductive skills, but I just don't think the Saints can afford to spend a roster spot on him in the hopes that this past season was simply a fluke.

Morgan has shown that he can be that deep threat and that he has the skills to make some circus catches along the way. And Toon will, in all likelihood, need to get on the field on some plays to develop as a receiver. So where would that leave Henderson? On the bench is the answer, and if there's another team that would be willing to offer him a better chance of more frequent snaps - I would prefer for his sake that he takes that chance.

I don't think you're off. Best year was 32 catches the article said, so...

He may have lost his seperation speed but he was a very good down field blocker. I wish him well. Thanks for the memories.

Some tend to think losing him is a big deal.

Some tend to be wrong a lot. :-)
