PISSCHUNK Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Said one of the guys will be moved (already known by fans) and it looks to be Travis and that he should fetch a First Rounder. Not sure if I agree but the guy was a decent evaluator of talent but then again, if I had the amount of picks he had I could have re-built that team as well. Late
Thailog80 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 He must be high from all the Aqua-net fumes.
Like A Mofo Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Jimmy Johnson is not IMO the best source of all time for what is fair for trade...shoot, he helped pull off the hoi$t of all-time with Hershel Walker...figures why cannot Buffalo do the game? Answer? They cant.

It kind of depends on who your talking to. If the Bills look desperate to unload Henry, we'll get jack. If we find a team like the Dolphins (not suggesting a trade to Miami, I mean "like" the Dolphins) who are desperate for an RB, we could do it. I do think TD is a decent poker player and will be able to get decent value if, and it's still a big IF, we trade TH. I know everyone here feels that having TH and WM is not feasable, but really there is no law (other than the salary cap) that says we can't keep both players. Players can complain all they want but the coaches call the shots. There is nothing wrong with a little depth at RB. PTR
Thailog80 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 I sure like to be able to watch the first round of the 05 draft. Here's hoping .

PTR 93927[/snapback] I'm sure TH wouldn't want to be a 2nd stringer, but he makes peanuts for a back as good as he is. Keeping both would be do-able, but I think TH will request, and TD will oblige, a trade this offseason.
Guest Guest_eyedog_* Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Yeah the big freaking poker player can't draft. Henry isn't bringing a #1 either.
RuntheDamnBall Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 I sure like to be able to watch the first round of the 05 draft. Here's hoping . 93929[/snapback] This year I left after the 13th pick to go play football and came back shocked to find we'd picked Losman. Anything can happen... Looking at the Eagles today I could see them being interested in Henry, and given that they stand to make it close to the end this year it wouldn't be a high first-rounder. Behind their line and with his style of running they could certainly succeed. None of their current backs, or prior ones in the past few years, have lasted a whole season. I could see the Raiders being interested, too, but they are all about Wicky. Think the logical destinations for a RB here are Oakland, Philly and Miami, maybe Chicago or Tampa Bay.
Like A Mofo Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Kinda' like getting a 1st rounder out of Atlanta for Free Agent Peerless Price? 93932[/snapback] We dealt Peerless RIGHT after this best season.....TH will be 1 yr removed from a his best season..if we all see so many deficiences in TH's game, why wouldnt other teams??? 2nd round pick? I could see that, and I would take it

Happy Days Lois & Clark Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Travis Henry is a proven player who is young and is a hard worker. Some team (who needs a running back) should want a player of his caliber over some unknown rookie There is a chace he could go for a late 1st rounder but I would guess more likely a 2nd rounder because many teams already have quality starters.
Kelly the Dog Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Try to think of it the other way around. If you were an NFL team, and picked a RB in the mid to later half of the first round, and he performed as Travis Henry did for the first three years of his career, you would be thrilled with that pick. In other words, he is worth a first rounder. We may get one, and we may not, it depends on which teams are looking for Rbs this year, what RBs come out of the combines looking good, if the teams lookings for RBs pass a lot to their backs, what kind of picks those teams have this year, what players are on or off the board when their chance to pick comes, etc. No one knows right now whether or not he would fetch a #1, and in one year he may get you a #1 and the next year he wouldn't (because of aforementioned items)
MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Henry will net a 2nd rounder plus another pick later in the draft, if he doesn't fetch a 1st rounder. Put him behind a good O-line and he's a 1,500 yard 12 TD RB.
Kelly the Dog Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Ron Dayne Trung Candidate Thomas Jones William Green TJ Duckett Larry Johnson Teams thought these guys were worth a first rounder in the last few years...
Happy Days Lois & Clark Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 What have the Arizona Cardinal 1st round picks done for them over the years. Talk about a team that should trade away their 1st rounder, Arizona is it.
GG Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 If 100 ignorants on this board know about Henry's fragile mental state, slippery fingers, mental blocks, lack of break away speed, and lax fundamentals, what are the chances that 31 people who get paid a lot to do it for a living don't know the same thing?

jarthur31 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 He must be high from all the Aqua-net fumes. 93879[/snapback] I hope we do get a 1st rounder but I seriously doubt if he TH doesn't amass anything close to 1300 yards this year. Damn, I will miss him. I've got his jersey.
OnTheRocks Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 would the Bills be willing to trade Henry in the offseason for 2006 #1 pick? in regard to the Dolphins, they are just as desparate for help on the O-Line, so i could see them willing to trade a #1 pick for Henry, but not a top 3 overall pick.
