    Hope for Hester: Many happy returns

    April 30, 2006

    BY LACY J. BANKS Staff Reporter

    Miami's Devin Hester got a puzzling welcome to the NFL.

    According to a reliable source, the 5-10, 186-pound speed demon got teased with the most suspenseful telephone call of his life Saturday before the Tennessee Titans changed their minds about drafting Hester and chose talented but controversial USC running back LenDale White with the 45th pick.


    WHEW! That was close. We narrowly avoided a boneheaded decision. I never saw this guy as more than mid-round talent.
     
  2. we dont need another punt returner, pacman is probally the best in the league or is definately top 3, but he has a lot of issues that we have to deal with =[

    Hester is going to be playing in the NFL and making more money than I've ever seen. I suppose I would understand people feeling sorry for him, but they should look at the positives.

    hardly. rookie contracts for second round picks are cheap in NFL dollars.

    Dunno who he even is. It scares me that we almost took him over White...
