Saints Wide Receiver Battle Is Heating Up

It seems as if Devery Henderson is not going to give up so easily. Early training camp reports had Robert Meachem as the guy to watch, and possibly have a chance at taking the number two wide out spot, and after a great first pre season game, those reports seemed to be right on track. As of this last week, Henderson has been taking the bulk of snaps with the first team along with Colston, and Coach Payton stated Henderson is fighting for playing time, while the others Moore, and Meachem are fighting for snaps. He also said that Meachem has improved, but still has a ways to go, noting that its his efficiency level that is still in question. Wow, talk about a let down, I cannot believe that with all the work Meachem put in this off season, and the performance he gave in the first game that he would have slid down in the depth chart. Has Henderson, even after battling with a hamstring injury earlier in camp, improved that much? You can bet the last two games are going to be important to those ... (link)
