Henry Trade date soon?

[juice]

Maybe that Rumer Board that reported this a week ago was right on?

ESPN the MAG. has been reporting this since Feb., the Rudy Johnson/ Travis Henry interest article.

What other teams would be in the mix to take Travis off our hands?

Henry needs to be moved in the Pre-season/ Once season starts he'll only be worth a 2nd or 3rd

I think the deal is already done to trade him to Dallas for our #1 back.

Henry for Gallery otherwise Norv can give the fins a call to see if Minor is avilable.

If McGahee has a stellar season and shows he's injury free and the Bills running game is on solid ground, Henry would be trade bait in 2005. But not before that, if ever.

[The Spaz]

GM Tom Donahoe has fielded more than one call from teams interested in trading for young Pro Bowl running back Travis Henry, but the answer has always been the same, "No thanks."

While outsiders think Henry is fast becoming expendable with 2003 first-round pick Willis McGahee ready to take the field in contact drills after recovering from major knee surgery, the Bills feel just the opposite.

Thanks, Sounds like a bit of Marketing to see who's interested.. Or it could be some type of an official leak from the GM.

or it could be just a reporter needing something to report in the only time of the year that very little NFL news to report about.

Could be but ESPN the MAG. printed it months ago and it came up again a week ago on a Rumer Board... thats quite a coincidence.

2 of 3 sources are solid and once the season starts we take on a number of risks factors that could cause his value to drop to nothing.

McGahee is running and cutting at full speed but that's not comforting enough for the Bills to trade the proven Henry, the team's 2003 MVP and one of its locker room leaders. It's known that Donahoe is fearful that trading Henry after his gutsy 2003 season, in which he played the final 61/2 games with a broken leg, would irreparably damage team morale.

If McGahee has a stellar season and shows he's injury free and the Bills running game is on solid ground, Henry would be trade bait in 2005. But not before that, if ever.

YES!

Thats exactly what I said...doesn't WM sound like he is 100%.. making Henry expendable.

It also says in the above article that MM is telling WM to "Hit the Jets" after he breaks away so it becomes second nature... He sounds more confident than ever that Willis is ready.

It does not make Henry expendable. What happens if WM goes down? Who is his back-up if Henry is gone?

The same thing that would happen if DB went down.. you bring in a capable 2nd.. Hamrick from Dallas I think was released.
