Henry's Trade Value at its Peak?

[BidsJr]

Everyone is focused on the "risk" of going into the season with only Willis if TD decided to trade Travis.

What about the "risk" of not trading Travis when his value potentially is at its highest.

What if it is Travis knee that blows out next year and not Willis?
What if he cannot hang onto the ball?
What if WM is so good that they cannot keep him off the field?

When WM gets back next year he WILL take carries and yards away from TH. He will also put focus on TH lack of recieving skills when he gets REC yards that Travis never gets.

If we wait until next year to trade him, we will get less than we would this year because of less production.


I would take the risk of getting into the top 5 to get Manning/Big Ben/Rivers if we could find a dancing partner, rather than cross my fingers that Travis doesn't blow out his knee or contract fumbleitis again, and ruin his value for next year.


See my mock draft.

Get insurance later on in the draft with Turner, Bell, even Clarrett.

Detroit, Can I have this dance... They are in desperate need of RB help and would probably put us in the mix for one of the big 3 QB's at #6.

I don't really think we can trade Henry, until we see what McGahee can do for us.

[BidsJr]

Would definately put us into the mix.

AND would push another top quality pick to 13.

If we could manage to keep it.

Or trade down.

[The Natrix]

It is definitely at it's peak. No doubt.

Remember what MM said on the NFL network?

We are moving forward with our team as IF we will have both Travis and Willis.

.. as IF ..

Sounds suspect to me.

[BidsJr]

ME too.

I'm leaning toward a draft day suprise.

Well said. 1000yd rushers are pentiful in the NFL nowadays. Lets move Henry now, but only if the price is right.

Oh Christ things are getting hairy!!!!!!!!!

ELL, We've seen what he can do at MIA , the only question is rather he is 100% and able to do it this year or if there is a 2 yr rehab period... How does he look to you.. NO kneebrace..235 LBS.. and most importantly believes he is ready.

If the Knee is Healed then there isn't a reason he would go out and make a quick cut and reinjure it. 100% is as good as new, from what I have read about Knee Injuries.. There is as much of a chance that he will injure his other Knee.

Actually according to the doctors, Henry's "non" surgically repaired knees are more likely to be injured that McGahee's surgically repaired knee

You people are nuts!

We’re going to trade away a 2-time 1400 yard rusher just to move up 7 spots in the draft so we can draft a QB who most likely won’t be able to play this year and possibly even next year!

Bizarre Eh!


So now we go into next season with a shaky Drew, a rookie running back with a bum knee and our first round draft pick on the bench for the second year in a row!

Nice!


I’m glad you guys aren’t running this team!

[BidsJr]

This would not be a move up trade!

See my mock draft to see how I have it worked out.

I think we could keep 13

[Patrick76777]

You seem like a nice guy and all, but I think we've got a better chance of seeing TD go up to the podium dressed in a pink tutu and proceed to select Ebenezer in the first round than we have of Oakland giving us the #2 AND a 3rd rounder for Henry!
