Travis Henry??
Dont know if this has been covered.But Henry apparently wants out if McGahee gets the starting nod. Do we pursue??Send a 3rd rounder for him? I see Philly,and Miami as teams that would be interested as well.

How about sending them C Wood and getting Henry and a 2nd round pick.

There is no way that they would trade Henry for a 3rd rounder. This guy has 2900 yards in the last 2 years. I would take Henry over Ricky in a heart beat because Ricky brings absolutely no gurantee that he will be around more then a season or two.

I would never do that! Bad idea. Maybe if the bills will add something but Henry for Woodson is not a good trade.

Anyone who would take Ricky over Henry is stoned. You'd take a guy w/ mental problems and who's one hot piss test away from indefinite suspension over a hard ass like Henry? Dumb. Just dumb.

And Henry will cost at least a 1st round pick. The guy is a premiere back. A 3rd rounder just won't cut it.

Henry would be sick in this offense. If McGahhe blows up this year and henry goes on the trading block, we'd be fools not to at least make a bid.

Shaun Alexander may also be available.

Henry benefits more from Bledsoe and Moulds. His running is an afterthought compared to what they can do.

He has fumblie issues and gets seperated from the ball.

His durability is kind of spongy- squeeze a high carry game out and expect a limitied output the week after.

He is more of a support player. Fourth or fifth round picks from physical standpoints can perform as well... then again Oakland has a great team, by this time next year may wish add another support player to the stable.

Feature backs can handle a carry load and stay within a system. Support players do that mostly in streaks. Ricky Williams, after a year holdout, can play where he chooses if the rules are still the same- a rules change voids out contracts yes?

Then again Tags would do everything he could to get him ona third strike if he was a Raider. false flag stratagey- Ricky says he'll leave team, pop an in-house test and point the finger. Had the Phins front office signed OGUN and got him in camp and kept people like Marino instead of running off their football people from the Organization things would look entirely different there.

Does their stadium still have a "for rent" sign at it? Ever since they got into sponsorship name status the front office has run a stray course. Ricky just wants to play ball and it takes no rocket scientist. Put the rock in his hands and pound away- Norv leaves and Ricky and McMichael, 2 guys who benefit the most from his system, become off-field issues.

There's a connection.

Why would you want him:

a) he's under 35 years old and a great running back...
b) he has talent...which would not compliment the rest of your team!
c) why would he even want to play for Leatherface...

Lets try this reasoning:

Why would your sorry ass want to come in here?

1) You are to young and too stupid to talk football
2) Your team sucks so bad you should be wearing a barrel over your head
3) And you smell like a horses ass

I am neither young or stupid RaiderRef...I have been a Bronco fan for 25 years and know the game very well....yes Denver had a pretty brutal Wild Card game...I'll admit that but we didn't go 5-11 either...
