I think Rezburna may have said it best... "I would prefer a guy who is a exclusively a kick return guy and nothing else". Devin fits that title and I would welcome him to the B&G to take over kick return duty.

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.

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
