dave mcbride Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/bron...3548634,00.html henry seems to me to be a very good fit in denver's scheme - a slashing, between the tackles runner who is quick to the hole. trevor pryce, who will be 100% by mini-camp, doesn't fit the broncos' scheme now that they're going to a 3-4, but he'd be perfect in the bills' scheme and is a terrific pass rusher. i think that a henry/price trade straight up makes both teams better, and his broncos cap number isn't an issue for the bills.
KD in CA Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I'd like to have Pryce, but the Broncos already have a slew of RB.

eball Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 i'm not trying to bash TH, but is he smart enough to understand the OL zone blocking scheme in denver?
scribo Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I don't think we need someone like Price half as much as we need a decent draft pick or a good o-lineman.

Fartacus Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Denver wont give up Pryce for what they might consider just another guy that they could plug into their running back machine. New England traded a 2nd rounder for Corey Dillon last year so its probably realistic that the Bills will get a 2nd or 3rd rounder for Henry. We'll have to wait and see what a lot of the F/As do and see who has a glaring need.
marck Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I think this would be an excellent trade. From a value standpoint a younger running back for a slightly older defensive end is an equitable trade. The salary of both players may be an issue as Price has a 9 million cap and would have to be restructured. Denver has a history of carrying multiple backs on their roster and Travis Henry would be an excellent addition for them. I think this would be a great football trade. http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/bron...3548634,00.html henry seems to me to be a very good fit in denver's scheme - a slashing, between the tackles runner who is quick to the hole. trevor pryce, who will be 100% by mini-camp, doesn't fit the broncos' scheme now that they're going to a 3-4, but he'd be perfect in the bills' scheme and is a terrific pass rusher. i think that a henry/price trade straight up makes both teams better, and his broncos cap number isn't an issue for the bills. 239741[/snapback]
Marv Levy Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 why is DEN dumping ruben droughns? I thought he was a stud runner this season. Where is he going? Pryce definitely would be a nice addition IMO. I still can't figure out Kelsay and Shobel!!
