Re: Willie Snead optimistic and hopeful that he signs long-term deal with Saints before season

Honestly? He has the best hands on the team since Lance Moore, hands down (pardon the pun). He has made more clutch plays than almost everyone on the roster. And why should what a player makes have anything to do how he is perceived as long as he keeps doing what he has been doing as a Saint?
Name the "next man up" that can match the play he has proven to date. Brandon Coleman is the "next man" and he hasn't come close.
