Latest article on the possible Henry/Shelton deal from the Mesa, AZ East Valley Tribune.

Give Green credit for sticking ot his guns...

wow, TD and Green are in a d**k measuring contest- this is fun to watch.

[Tatonka]

maybe it wont happen.. i just hope all three backs are gone by greens pick.

[DaBillzAhDaShiznit]

This is kinda fun! Who will blink first? I don't think either has the upperhand...
it all comes down to value. In my opinion, in the current market, their values are equal. Let's get an even swap done, so we know who to pick in the draft.

That's right bro! You know that is what TD is patiently going to wait for. Then he will have Denny by the short hairs. Denny better hope that the deal goes down before it gets that far or TD just might give it to him dry and demand more than just Shelton and a swap of 2nd round picks.
You know that Green is just blowing smoke because if he wasn't interested at all in TH, he wouldn't keep issuing statements about the trade and what he will offer for TH.
It is going to be fun to watch this play out. Like two teenage boys trying to out do eachother over a girl. Go get him TD!

I still think it will happen. I think this is just a response to the Sirius interview with TD and he has to say something.

[Mr. Miyagi]

With the signing of Bennie Anderson, our Oline just got better and we got less desperate. Whereas Arizona still doesn't have an RB. I'd say we have the upperhand.

[JJamezz]

I think TD has the upper hand simply because Shelton makes too much money to be a backup, and Henry doesn't.

I agree...despite all his posturing, I'm not sure Green can keep Shelton around as a backup.

[Mudflap1]

Arizona wants Henry, they want to get rid of Shelton. We want to get rid of Henry, and can get AT LEAST Shelton, so why not pine for more while there's still time, get what you can, and if, at the end of the day, all you can get is Shelton, then make the deal. You get a LT that you need, get rid of a disgruntled running back, and you make a smart salary cap move.

It's just posturing. Tom Donahoe's trying to get everything he can, knowing worst-case scenario he's got the even up trade in his back pocket.

I love the sound of this...from: http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial...01/1072863.asp


"The Bills plan to take a look at starting center Trey Teague at left tackle in the spring minicamps. If the move becomes permanent, the Bills could field one of the toughest and nastiest interior lines in the NFL with Anderson and Chris Villarrial at guard and Tucker manning the center spot. All three are rugged performers who play with a mean streak."

[HAMMER]

Why is everyone so high on Shelton? He has been thrown on the trash heap for a reason, he didn't get it done in AZ. Yes we need a LT but at what cost? Travis Henry is a very good RB, I am in no hurry to give him away either. 1200 and 1300 yard seasons are nothing to sneaze at, you can never have too many good backs, see Carolina the last few years. Buffalo owns him through next season, if I am in charge he will play for me this year. Draft a center and move Teague to LT, he knows the position and is very capable.

screw denny green!!!!!!


if they don't want to deal with draft picks,they better tell bidwell that he needs to eat some of shelton's contract.henry has more value than shelton if you want to get down to it.how many RBs are in the NFL that are young,making $1.35 million,and have a couple of 1000 yards seasons under his belt?not too many.


people wonder why arizona has been bad for so long.here's one reason why they continue to suck.

[The Natrix]

I wish Shelton would come out and say in the papers that he wants to go to Buffalo.
