Hester is also dual purpose, he was also a receiver up till last year. Id rather see Hester on a reverse than Josh Hill

Too little cap space with too many critical needs at Starting Center, Right Tackle, Outside Linebacker and Safety to worry about signing an aged return specialist -> Pass

Depends on price. A Sproles replacement at the right price would free up cap space.

Trindon Holliday is another free agent. Broncos won't make tender offer.

You quoted a genius. You are now my favorite member.

I think the Bears had an all around better ST unit than the Saints have ever seen. Hester here would be an average returner.
IMO

I believe our kick returner will be settled in the draft, hester sounds spicy but just for kick returner won't happen. call me homer, if odell Beckman falls to us , punt return, kick offs, wide receiver, reverses gunner. problem solved. not counting his hands are like 12 inchs in circumference . guy has to be related to spider man.
