Hendrickson has performed well, but he is not our best DE. He is the recipient of the pressure by others. He's the dude that's been in the right place at the right time. You line Granderson up in the exact same spot on the same plays and he'd be right there too.

How do you know that?

Did coaches tell you Hendrickson offers no better performance than any other DE?

Seems like he is the starter for a reason and displaced a big time 1st round pick to be the guy.

Cam Jordan is our best all round DE. That's why he attracts the double teams. So, basically, the offensive line coaches across the league told me Jordan is the best DE on the team. I'll guarantee you if you asked any player or coach on the Saints they'd say the same thing.

Snap counts also signify who's best. Jordan has been in for 78.01% of defensive snaps. Hendrickson is second for DE's at 53.35%.

Cam Jordan is older and has been injured this year; he was struggling against backup offensive linemen during the regular season; he's not been the elite defensive end he's been the past three seasons...

And he still remains the one drawing double teams and taking part in 50% more snaps than the next closest DE.

He wasn't drawing double teams this year like he was in past seasons; he struggled more this season, especially vs backup offensive linemen...

He may not be drawing as many double teams, but he is definitely still drawing more than any other exterior lineman on our team. All said and done, whether you like it or not, JP, Cam Jordan is still our best DE. Is he as good as he's been in the past? No. But he's still the best all round DE on the team.

I disagree

Cam Jordan is easily the worst DE on the team. Granderson should be starting there.
