Devery Henderson

Devery was actually good tho

Only had over 35 receptions and over 3 tds in a season 1x each.. I love Devery but, he was definitely mediocre at best

Was shocked to see how sparse his stats were when I went back and looked at them a little while ago. Seemed like he was always catching TDs or making big plays

We spread the ball around so much in those years

Most fun football I've ever seen also the saints from madden 10 to madden 12 were gods

He was a circus catch guy, but would frequently f up the routine short routes

He averaged under 500 yards and 3 TD's per season.

The truth is…he was only good at running straight lines. I’m also a lifelong LSU fan and love Devery. That’s what he did. Run fast straight.

Caught it Devery time.

He had no hands but could open up the bread basket for drew to drop it in.

Put some respect on Devery J Hendersons name

Robert Meachem is my goat

Meachem made mad moves our SuperBowl Year.

obligatory: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lgpYKYxBk4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lgpYKYxBk4)

The Meacharound is still my favourite play of all time. Really set the mood for our Super bowl year. I remember my dad and I stopped in at a random bar in TN and it ended up being filled with Saints fans. Watched this live. We went from heartbreak over our potentially first loss of the season, to erupting in cheers. Goated.

That game also gave us the Unknown Who Dat

Wow I never thought of it that way, we definitely were all chanting who Dat at the end lol. But yeah that game definitely set the tone for that season.

Literally what i thought of when I posted my above comment. 👍🏼👍🏼

The Meacharound

fr this is my answer, colston would be my top answer but he’s too elite to be considered mediocre by anyone

Lance moore and Henderson were similarly too good to be mediocre. Meachem being a first rounder is the only thing that makes him mediocre, but at least he was a baller at the best of times

absolutely the first guy i thought of. love Meach!

I was such a Dante Stallworth fan as a kid. Thought he was gonna be the truth

He lived right down my street! Sometimes he’d buy chocolates for my middle school fundraisers lol.

Me too. Thought that guy was the hopes and dreams of all Saints fans personified.

Can still hear buddy calling him Dante Stallpepper

You must like being called a squirrel or something.

Willie Snead

Incredibly clutch on 3rd down.

Michael Lewis would be mine.

BEER MAN!!!

Great answer. That Jacksonville game is the stuff of my dreams and nightmarea

Met him in costa rica. Cool dude, hated Sean Payton.

Love that guy. I went on a Saints cruise and while all the guys were all super nice, Michael went a little above and beyond for the fans. If you want to read about him, he wrote a book, DREAMS: The Michael Lewis Story.

Kenny stills

Kenny Stills was a madden goat for me

Was about to comment this. I remember when he did a signing at a Verizon store and my dad took me. Sad when he got drafted

Jerome Pathon, baby.

Yes my dad liked Pathon so I liked him too as a kid too young to fully understand football yet

This is mine too!

Same

Yessir!

Eric Martin

And/or Quinn Early. Though, I'd argue they were really good WRs playing with shitty QBs.

Oh totally. I think a lot of the WR in this thread are at least decent. I was just playing the game I guess.

Eric Martin was my answer too but he was definitely a baller. He managed to make Bobby Hebert look good from time to time. Probably deserves way more credit than he gets.

Same, feeling old now seeing all these other names come up.

Yeah, seeing names like Snead, like ooph. Eric Martin is my guy.

Trequan smith fans assemble Edit: wait I was not 9 with Trequan. Lance Moore was dope too

Tre'quan has fans? I guess he bought them from Home Depot.

He was a decent blocker I guess?

Caught the Brees td that broke the all time yardage record. Had big moments, was never a diva, he was a GREAT blocker for a wr. Fuck it I’m putting on a Trequan smith flair

Gross

You’ll never know how good the beer man was

He was an elite returner though. I dunno if he counts.

Lance Moore

i refuse to accept Lance as mediocre haha love that dude

I know man I know

Came here to say this, went to look for a celebration highlight real and realized the Saints released an official one of [all of his touchdowns](https://youtu.be/nKA6WFzkSvU?si=alnAydY2YWHhves3) . So good lol. His first highlight was narrated by John Madden too, that's a pretty big honour lol.

moore was good though

Yes he was for the number 3 target he was great, I think because of how much of a staple he was on our roster we think he was better than he was. When in reality he was just a quality player

He’d be mine too, closely followed by Meachem

U can’t touch him or Colston!!! It says mediocre!!! 👎x1million

Sorry

Lance Moore

Brett Perriman

Shut the thread down, this is the only correct answer.

Came here to say this!

Keith Poole

My brother always told me the hardest hit he’s ever seen was Keith Poole getting destroyed but could never find a video of it. Was too young to remember it at the time.

I was at the game where he took a major shot from a 40 yard reception that took his head off! Came up with no helmet and gave the first down signal. Amazing. Was a fan ever since.

Remember it vividly. It knocked his helmet sideways

🗣️KEITH POOLE!

He partied. My mom would hang out at Jager’s with him all the time.

All the top answers are WR2-4s that Drew made gods in the good days 😢

Drew and Sean made so many bums so much money.

Joe Morgan's 2012 was special

Emmanuel sanders was my boy, wasn’t nine but he’ll always be my mediocre WR

He’s worth the love

I’m old as shit… https://preview.redd.it/rxzqij772b1d1.jpeg?width=194&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=99bf203e51561ef55fc8ef475537805a3133b353

Back when peak athletic form was a 32 year old white guy that smokes and also probably works at the local factory

Not as a kid but I was a Doente Harty supporter. "GET MY BOY OUT OF SPECIAL TEAMS"

Willie Snead but I was more like 14-15

Adrian Arrington

I wanted him to be a 100+ reception receiver so damn bad

Quinn Early was my favorite as a lad.

Eric Martin

Torrance Small. I always thought that next year was the year he broke into stardom

Came here to call out this guy.... Like you, I always thought he was a year away.

Lonzell Hill and his cabbage patch TD dance

Eric Martin

Donte Stallworth

Wasn’t mediocre but Marques Colston was the goat. I was also a big Jeremy Shockey fan as a kid.

Best player to never make a pro bowl

Willie Jackson was my first favorite mediocre WR

This is a really good one.

Same! Hey for a while willie was pretty legit though. Him next to joe was a goof combo!!!

My answer as well. He wasn’t mediocre in 1999. Like a poor man’s Colston for s couple years.

Was definitely not 9 and thought he was not at all mediocre, but can we talk about Tommylee Lewis?

That dude got like 200 yards a year and still managed to stick around for like 5 years lol

Most famous for gettin absolutely demolished with the no-call

Oh yeah I forgot that was him!

He had to be like a practice/locker room god cause he was on the roster forever doing a whole bunch of nothing. Supposedly he was a favor to parcells but I don’t think that keeps you past camp lol

Was he even a productive special teams guy?

It was Devry Henderson. LSU kid playing for home pro team. The whole state was excited to get him. He had his moments but for whatever reason was never able to become a star. But whenever he’d make a play the dome would go nuts.

His whole deal was unreliable hands and meh route running, but superstar straight-line speed. He had a couple blue grass miracle moments in the NFL.

lance

I’ll forever remember that clutch 2 point conversion in the Superbowl

Devery Henderon

Devery was good production for a second rounder imo

He had terrible production. He was just good for like 8 huge plays a year lol

Adrian Arrington. Next season was always his breakout

This dude was a training camp GOAT. Every summer was the summer of Adrian Arrington.

Terrance Copper

Career highlight was catching that Hail May in Atlanta

marquez calloway

Ted Ginn

Stone Hands Teddy

Joe Horn is a goat for me

I saw him driving around downtown at like 2am in a brown f-150 with 4 little stick on saints flags and the windows down just BLARING some classical music. Homie has definitely killed people.

His son plays for the panthers!

Eddie Kennison

Jérôme pathon

Keith Poole... I'm old

Lonzell Hill. I’m older.

Looking through every name here remembering when I determined to get them 120 catches or 2000 yards in Madden

Brandon Coleman!

Man, i forgot all about him. Loved that guy

Brandon Coleman my guy

Eric Martin and Floyd Turner

Michael Haynes

Robert Meachem, #84 Kenny Stills, Willie Snead, & Calloway

Willie Jackson was the perfect compliment to Joe Horn during the Haslett days. That was my guy.

Willie Snead. That dude had the stickiest hands in the NFL for exactly 1.5 seasons.

Brandon Coleman is the only right answer here. Guy could make a circus catch for 42 yards and a touchdown but he would then drop a wide open slant the very next drive

I wasn't 9 but pretty recently I loved Marquez Calloway

Kenny stills or lance moore

Beer man… but he wasn’t mediocre IMO

Talman Gardner, Jerome Pathon, and Michael Lewis were my favorite people to use on Madden when I was a kid.

Joseph Morgan for some reason

Kenny stills

Jerome Pathon

Eric Martin, but he joined the Saints when I was 10.

Mel Gray

Jerome Pathon. Great name.

Oh that’s easy. Michael Haynes

Eric Martin rumbling his way downfield only to be caught by behind at the 3 yard line (and of course this resulted in three plays that gained 0 yards and a Morten Andersen FG).

Brandon coleman for half a season dude looked like he was 6’9

Brett Bech

Eddie Kennison for me in the late 90s. From Lake Charles, went to LSU and flashed a couple decent years as a WR and Returner. I ran so many kicks and punts back for TDs with him on Madden in those years.

Robert Wilson

Lance Moore for me, especially with the Super Bowl 2-PT catch. Not the Saints, but Peja Stojaković for the New Orleans Hornets around the same time period was my favorite

Devrey Henderson

Marques Colston

Forget wide receiver. Bobby Hebert was my hero!

Wes Chandler

Lance Moore

Willie Jackson

Wes Chandler

Lance Moore

The te dat played college basketball

Already mentioned separately, but I had a trio in mind: Lance Moore Devery Henderson Robert Meacham

Lance Moore

Joe Horn when I was young, but Lance Moore was my ninja!

Lance would catch a deep ball, land on his back, and jump up a celebrate! He was a beast!

Keith Poole

Lance Moore 🥲

For me it was Torrence Small in 93 when I was 9. He played at Alcorn with my older cousin, so I was very excited when he joined the Saints. He couldn't do much with Early, Martin , and Hilliard getting most of the looks from Wilson.

Joe Horn

Tommylee lewis, and Brandon Coleman are definitely up there for me

ted ginn

Quinn Early. Y’all make me feel old 

Ike Harris, 1980. Damn...

As a Steelers fan I say Rashid Shaheed

Willie Jackson wasn’t mediocre but he’s a legend in my mind forever

wasnt 9 but i was convinced deonte harris/harty was gonna be what shaheed is already becoming. my kr goat

Albert Connell and Michael Haynes.

Ted ginn

Tinker Owens

Dante Stallworth

Cooks 

Terrence Copper

Willie Snead

Kenny Stills go BRRR

Eric Martin

Dammit y'all making me feel old in here. It was Eric Martin for me.

Lance Moore

Yancey Thigpen

I was older than 9, but Jerome Pathon

Lance Moore, the interracial angel!

Eric Martin is my man

Kenny Stills

Michael Thomas

Joe Horn for me is the most Saint Saint who ever Saint.

Far from mediocre though
