UConn James Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 "I think there's definitely interest from several teams," Engelhard said. Translation: One team has asked how much Travis currently weighs.
AKC Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Is he torn between girls football and dance ? 205111[/snapback] The appeal of the under 16 girl's football team appears to play heavy in their interest level. Henry was overheard sharing with his agent "That's one bench I wouldn't mind riding".

Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 If Miami is the only team willing to give up a two, go for it!
ROCCEO Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 I think the key to this whole thing might be the Jets, believe it or not. From what I've heard, now they're leaning towards trying to keep LaMont Jordan. I think he's the Raiders' first choice (they tried to get him this past offseason, and is the perfect back for Turner's system). If the Jets find a way to keep him (franchise tag? - they might with Abraham's latest antics decide to franchise Jordan instead), then the Raiders may come crawling for Travis... otherwise, I'm not sure what the market would look like: 1) No chance we give him to them - plus I think they'll target Shaun Alexander. 2) Seattle - I think they end up with Marshall Faulk somehow 3) Arizona - they already have a "pounder" (Shipp) - they'll likely trade for a speed guy (Michael Bennett) 4) Tampa Bay - Henry ain't the right fit for that offense - no question 5) Philly - this might be a great fit, actually - they want a "pounder" to spell Westbrook. They'll also like his low cap number for next year. They're shrewd, though - they didn't even give up a #2 for Owens! 204913[/snapback] Good call with philly, esp considering modrak used to work for them, we probobly have close connections with them. I had heard a rumor some time ago that philly would be one of the teams interested and it makes a lot of sense.
Fla Bills Fan Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 Well, lets look at teams that probably need a starting back... Miami (FORGET IT! :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: ) Cleveland Oakland Carolina Tampa Bay Arizona San Francisco Can we convince one of these guys to give us a 2 for TH? Miami would probably be the most willing, then Oakland? We can only hope. 204291[/snapback] There has been talk down here about the Bucs trading for him.
Fla Bills Fan Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 Pittman has been a pretty good back for TB this season. I don't see Tampagoing after him. Plus, TH couldn't handle competing for the spot....I don't think he would want to go there either... If seattle loses Shaun Alexander, he might be a guy they can target. 204766[/snapback] Pittman fumbled a lot this year, I wuold not be suprised to see him gone.
Fla Bills Fan Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 Wasn't Pittman suspended early for beating his wife?? I was thinking between Pittman's legal troubles and Henry being from FL... but you make a good point about TH's fear of competition. 204772[/snapback] Pittman was suspended for the first 4 games. Gruden likes Pittman but said the fumbling problem would be addressed.
