DanInSouthBuffalo Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Gruden just traded a 6th round pick to Cleveland for QB Luke McCown and he drafted Cadillac Williams at RB. Trade Travis Henry straight up for either Michael Pittman, Charlie Garner, or QB Chris Simms. Either way you get a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 or we could keep henry and have a backup who was a probowler that knows the system. 316574[/snapback] The only thing Travis knows about the system is how to go 0-4 in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 or we could keep henry and have a backup who was a probowler that knows the system. 316574[/snapback] Very true. I wish it could be that way. Odds are we never see him until at least traning camp, which means he'll probably be useless to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 Put down the crack pipe, and back away slowly. 316580[/snapback] No crack involved here. Pittman (who has had some off the field issues in his past, which I do not discount) is a decent back and a GREAT receiver out of the backfield. Here's his stats from last year: 219 carries 926 yards 4.2 yards per 78 longest run 7 TD's 41 catches 391 yards 9.5 yards per 68 longest reception 3 TD's 6 fumbles (lost all six) Okay maybe crack is involved on that last one! Not bad for a guy who is going to be a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pittman beats his wife --- Travis only gets 14 years olds from gas stations 2. Pittman and Garner have fat contracts that would mess up the salary cap 3. Garner has had like 3 major knee surgeries 4. Simms just plain sucks! 5. Joe Burns would be sad if TH left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
