While the New Orleans Saints have been busy this offseason filling holes in their roster, one of the few moves they haven't made is re-signing unrestricted free agent receiver Devery Henderson.

Henderson's understudy for the past two seasons, Joe Morgan, has noticed.

"I haven't kept up much with the roster, but I have checked in on Devery because he is one of the guys I have looked up to since I was a kid," Morgan said. "He helped me out a lot my first two years. I was trying to see what the situation was going to be with that. As of now, he hasn't been brought back in."

Love the kid, but he's only about 25% there.

I'm glad we have him, but I wouldn't assume WR isn't a need for this team.

He said he has even taken some notes from Moore to help in running more precise routes.

"It's probably going to be the intermediate and short routes," Morgan said when asked what area he needs to work on most as he enters year three. "I've gotten a lot better at those working with Lance. He's one of the best route runners in the league, so just transferring that into practice and the games."

This stands out to me.
No one better to learn from.

Is WR keeping coach up at nights? Then go get an OT in the draft.
