Travis Henry?

i saw on espn that he told USA today that if mcgahee gets the starting job instead of him, he will request a trade. hmmmmm.......i wouldnt mind this guy playing for us. he might be easier to get with a first round pick, instead of ricky williams. i heard we offered our first rounder in 2005 for ricky's rights. if the dolphons dont take that offer, we should try and offer our first for henry. you guys agree ro disagree?

Agree.....although Ricky's production and just his presence in ANY backfield is worth a #1 pick. I just know we can keep Ricky in tow. Sheee-oot. Look at what Madden managed with Tooz, Stork, Billetnikoff and Stabler?
Although getting the rights to Ricky is a stretch in my mind, Travis Henry would do just fine.

I don't see how it could happen with the backfield we have now and the cap space. We would have to dump Wheatley. I doubt there's any validaty to it since I recently heard they are looking forward to having him and McGahee in the back field to give them more options and create headaches for defenses. He is a hell of a runner and will play through injuries.

if we can get Henry, we should go after him instead of Ricky becuase i doubt hes comin back and that he'll still be as dominant as he used to be. but personally, i dont think Henry will lose his job.

He would be awesome in S&B!!!!! But the question is do we trade our 1st rounder in 05 for him or do we just draft Benson or Cadillac? For me it's a no-brainer for Henry!!!

if we had a choice to give up no let me refrase that if we had chance to give up a first rounder for travis henry or ricky williams, who in the hell do you think we would choose thats a no brainer just run ricky, so whoever stop hatin on ricky cause he smokes a little pot at least its not thg or exctasy, meth or crack, with that said you know the drill just win baby.

williams will never be as valuable as henry

henry has played with a broken bone!

he has rushed for 1500 yards year in year out.

He is devouted to football....he isnt as worn out as ricky is either...


'our crowded backfield'???


fine CUT ZERO, HAM, WEAT....WE WONT NEED THEM IF WE GET HENRY!


if i had been Al i woulda spent a lot more of the off season trying to either get MChgaee or Henry...

ricky hasnt broken a bone to my knowledge
with our line ricky would almost gaurunteed b a 2000 yard bak
he isnt worn out because he didnt have to run the ball almost 400 times las yr
mcgahee hasnt even played how do u know hes great :gay:
