Don't worry about the Bills overpaying for Henson

The talk inside the league — and at Thursday’s workout — is that a second-round pick would be the going rate for Henson. The NFC college scouting director said the Packers and Dolphins were the most likely to “overpay” because of their respective situations at the position

“Green Bay is in this thing 100 percent,” he said. “They have to be.”

In a perfect world the Dolphins would give up their 1st round pick for Henson. They just might be dumb enough to do it, too.

I just do not see the Bills giving up more than a 3rd for Henson. It isn't logical, this draft is packed with QBs there is no reason to get into a bidding war. TD is smarter than that.

I hope the Dolphins do get him so we have a better shot at Rivers. If we can trade down that is.

If the bills don't get him I definitely do not want to see him in miami for the next ten years. I think he is gonna be a very good qb and since the bills are in the market for a young qb, this is the one. Go get him TD.

[Ebenezer]

Let Miami give up a #1. Fiedler has an excellent record and is a very serviceable QB. They have other needs they could use that #1 for.

The reason Miami can't advance is because of Fiedler. It's no secret how you beat Miami. You put eight in the box to contain Ricky and make Fiedler beat you. I too hope Fiedler stays in Miami.

Be careful what you ask for.. If Miami does indeed give a draft pick for Henson, there's a very good chance this guy will be very very good.. 3 years ago Rick Spielman tried to trade for MAtt Hasselbeck when he was a backup QB for the Packers but the Seahawks had outbid Miami.. He also passed on Drew Brees when the media ripped Miami for not going for Brees in the draft when it was obvious Miami needed an upgrad at QB with Fiedler there.. He knew Brees didnt have the tools to be great..

If Spielman sees that Henson is worth that.. Look out in 2005 or 2006.. I'm confident in Spielman QB scouting abilities..

Nah I say the Dolphins use the #20 pick overall and select Eddie Moore Jr!:lolcry: :drinker:

Giving up anything higher than a 6th round pick for Henson is overpaying for him. Yeah, I know most everyone passed on him because of his baseball deal. But why should anyone let Houston profit more handsomely (if he does show promise)? I'd just tell Houston "This was his value when you drafted him, so that's his value now."

Haven't we already given up a 1st rounder for a QB that there was a limited market for?

[eyedog]

Yeah I'm sure that will get a deal done.

It's well known that Casserly wants a pick next year for Henson. He's already got all the picks he wants this year and wants to spread out the wealth. If Miami wins the Henson auction though, they will not be drafting a QB at #20. That means Rivers will drop. I have a feeling if Green Bay loses the Henson auction, they might be more interested in Losman, who I think has more similarities than Rivers to Favre. Thus, there's a chance Rivers could drop to the Bills in round 2. It's not a big chance, but hey, I can dream.

that sounds like a scenario that is not that far off if miami got him.

I have actually heard rumors that Pittsburgh is very interested in Rivers too. What will happen if Miami trades for Henson and Pittsburgh drafts Rivers ahead of the Bills. JP Losman in a Bills uni? Oh my.
