The_Real Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Henry is going to go for a third round pick to somebody. I don't see the Cardinals buckling, and that's too bad. I for one think Shelton would be a huge addition to the O line. However, just no chance that deal gets done. Too many loopholes and strings attached. If it does I'll eat my words, but I think Henry goes for a draft pick and we all get disappointed at the result. I say the Bucs or the Eagles. Big day tomorrow and we don't pick until late 2nd round.

Dennis in NC Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Something in the first 10 picks of the 3rd round would be great for me. We all know (as fans, at least) what Travis can and can't do. I will be relieved when his deal is done, and we can all move on with our lives ;-)
Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I don't see TD pulling the trigger on a deal that nets us only a 3rd rd. pick for Henry. We spent a 2nd rounder on the guy, he panned out and became a Pro Bowl running back. If a 3rd rounder is all we can get for him, I don't see him going anywhere. Henry can say what he wants about sitting out, but for better or worse I don't see anyone winning a staring contest with Donahoe... he's just not going to blink.

T_R 313507[/snapback] Philly is sitting on 13 picks...there is no way that many can make a Super Bowl team. I say TH goes to the Iggles for a 2nd rounder or two lower rounders (like a 3rd & 6th). JMO.
jarthur31 Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I also think Travis will be traded but to whom and for what is beyond my meager thinking skillz.
Steven in MD Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 The only reason to get upset over any deal is when TH runs for 1500 yards and WM reinjuries his knee. Otherwise, in the eyes of this board TH could not start for any team in the NFL. CFL or Arena football.

T_R 313507[/snapback] I would not be the least bit disappointed. In fact, I will come on this board and call TD a genius. The Bills need better blockers, or at the very least talented depth. I would love to see another LB, a RB, and we WILL see another corner. Another 3rd could help us fill holes, or even open up a door for a trade down. I hope you are correct.
Live&DieBillsFootball Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I think that after all of the rumors it would be a disappointment to settle for only a 3rd round pick. But I'm sure that TD will extract as much as he can.
RVJ Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Henry is clearly better than the second tier of running backs in this draft. At 26 and with a pair of 1,300-yard seasons under his belt, Henry is better than any back you can draft in the second round and beyond.

Terrell Davis was a sixth round pick, right?
RVJ Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 But I just have to get another 2nd round pick...Or I'll die.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 TD will hold fast. Once the 1st round finishes and the best RB's are off the board, teams will come calling.
kasper13 Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 If the Bills do not want Shelton and the only other best offer is a 3rd round pick, take the 3rd round pick. All the experts are saying that there are lots of value picks to be had in the 2nd-4th rounds and Travis Henry is only good for what the best offer is. He is of no use to the Bills as a player anymore as he stated he is never coming back to Buffalo. Take what you can get and move on.
RVJ Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 LOL, I know how you feel! I am hoping that DeMarcus Ware lasts until #55. 313576[/snapback] He could stand to gain a few pounds dontcha think ? http://www.nfldraftblitz.com/Profiles/dema...wareprofile.htm

With 4.56 speed, I am thinking that with some practice, he could cover TEs and play outside LB. The kid is a pure pass rusher. Many mocks have Dallas taking him at #11.

LabattBlue Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 If a 3rd rounder is the best TD can get for TH, then so be it. We'll still be able to sign Shelton if TD chooses to, when Denny Green cuts him at some point in the next month or two.
Coach Tuesday Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I think it'll be a 3rd rounder this year plus a conditional pick in next year's draft - and I think that is the appropriate value.
