Devery is known league-wide as a deep threat. 9 times out of 10 they have him covered over the top.
I did notice last night that when Drew threw that 1st TD to Colston, if you'll watch the replay Devery was wide open in the corner of the endzone and seemed like the easier choice. I think Drew purposely targeted Colston last night as a confidence booster to get him back in the mix as the primary target and shake off the cobb webs from the broken collarbone.

I was thinking the same thing last night. I think sometimes we really take him for granted.

With Drew as quarterback, anyone who runs their respective route correctly is open.

Colston being back will play into Henderson's favor.
Going forward that will put him back into more one-on-one situations.
There just are not enough balls to go around each week. Every week will be different.
Depending on the coverages, Henderson will have his day again.

Actually it's his calf. He's been on the injury report for several weeks now. Also it's the new "keep the Saints offense in front of you... don't give up the big play" defense that everyone plays now. So Jimmy and Sproles and Lance are going to get a ton of balls underneath.

Devery is a complimentary player who really steps up when somebody like Colston or Moore isn't playing. IMO he is probably the best #3 receiver in football.
