NoSaint Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) When Whaley was interview on WGR last week he referred to Henderson being in the RT competition. Based upon that it seems as if he knew what was going on. I think it's highly possible that Rex knew too, but didn't want to discuss his medical condition. Nevertheless, the coaches are at fault for not reaching out to him. If everyone knew, is this a couple of morons going rogue to the press then? Also, like I said up thread- it's such an easy question to answer without making the player or team uncomfortable. It's silly to have played games. And both of those are before we even get to the coaches not reaching out I'm not being dramatic and saying its a major deal or make a mountain out of a molehill.... Just seems like we aren't doing great with some of the easy stuff lately, even if assuming the best. Edited May 31, 2016 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet but I'm 100% positive Whaley commented on Henderson's condition not too long before the Draft on WGR...And his comments were basically that Henderson was doing very well...He made a point of saying...basically...The Bills were very encouraged with the news they were getting on Henderson's health...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 At this point, and with so much "information" coming out, I have to believe that Rex, et al, are merely keeping their cards close to their chest. As I Mentioned in another post, when was the last time anyone took an injury report from the Pats* seriously? This is de rigueur in the league. Were they to be spilling information pell mell, then we should be concerned. That being said, considering the potential severity of the disease, and what e know so far, it's hard to imagine that we are going to see Seantrel starting this season, or the next. If everyone knew, is this a couple of morons going rogue to the press then? Also, like I said up thread- it's such an easy question to answer without making the player or team uncomfortable.

Just seems like we aren't doing great with some of the easy stuff lately, even if assuming the best. From Dunne's first article: After last week’s open organized team activity (OTA) practice, head coach Rex Ryan began by calling the right tackle's absence “a medical thing,” before admitting they haven’t spoken since the last day of last season.

racecitybills Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Another stellar example of a nattering nabobs of negativity. Just plain make up some BS story- of course making it a negative doom and gloom story - rather than doing your job and actually checking something out. Should be fired for the "moving on" article.

racecitybills Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) How many times have the Nabob's from the news trashed the front office at One Bills Drive? How many times? How many different writers? Henderson's agent had to reach out to Tyler Dunne? are you kidding me? A supposedly professional writer at a supposed big city newspaper did not even call his agent before classifying him as AWOL? What utter incompetence- somehow this will be Rex or Whaley's fault though- Edited May 31, 2016 by racecitybills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Just further proof of the deep level of stupidity that is the head coach of the Buffalo Bills, you could not have your secretary make one phone call, send a text, etc.???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex not giving a crap about his player enough to check on him or speak with him, is not the reporter's fault, the agent's fault, or the player's fault.

Doc Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 From the PFT story: Didn't see that PFT story (the OP had a story by them that didn't mention a colostomy). But that's what I figured. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigK14094 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 imho, SH is likely to be seriously under weight and strength......would not surprise me to see him on some list this year, as recovering from whatever. My wife had similar surgery, and lost a lot of weight...which is slow to regain. Wish him the best, though. Return as fast as possible, no faster though.

Ronin Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 He recovered? This doesn't upset me. RG, and RT are positions that can be upgraded in free agency. The best of these positions are in their late twenties, early thirties. At this position, rookies will take time to develop. Miller would be an excellent example of this. I have little doubt that he will blossom into a first rate Guard. For this position, youth is less of an upside than experience, IMO. Let's see what they do to improve this position over the next few weeks before we pass judgement. Well, free agency is essentially over now with all of the solid options long gone. Miller has quite the hill to climb to become even average on top of not being an injury puppy. That's a lot to ask any no one should have much faith in that situation re: him. He played so poorly last season and for sure massively inconsistently. I have quite a bit of doubt that he'll ever blossom into much more than a backup G. There's absolutely nothing concrete to suggest otherwise. You say "let's wait and see what they do to improve this position over the next few weeks before we pass judgement." Like what? What can they do? Be specific. Is there a free agent G out there that we can afford with a proven history of solid starting? I don't see what they can do. We have what we have. If they have extra cap money they need to put it towards Gilmore's contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Jahri Evans and Louis Vasquez. To start neither of those guys is much better than average tops. Vasquez is known to be a poor run blocker, and since our entire offense revolves around the run this season do you think he'd be a good fit? Do you think he'll play for veteran minimum which is all that we can afford? I did mention that. Evans will be 33 this season and if you've done your homework you'd know that he's injury prone. As well, you think he'll play for the minimum? I don't. We don't seem to have money to pay anyone anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was a dumb statement because the Bills have almost $13M in cap room. And given your assessment of Miller, wouldn't "average" (they're above average, hell Vasquez won a SB playing RG last season) be an upgrade?

Kemp Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) The little bit of reading I did on Crohn's disease makes me suspect that we have likely seen the last of Henderson in a Bills uniform. It's no joke, especially when it is severe, which if he received surgery for it-- it is. There is no cure, it's chronic, and there will be flare-ups, and remissions. If he hasn't been in contact with the FO, or Rex, I would think it is safe to assume he doesn't have any good news. I have Crohn's. A pretty bad case. Have had 5 surgeries. I had the two he had. The last surgery was 16 years ago. Since then I have done pretty well and have been an active participant in sports. There are many ways to treat Crohn's. The problem is finding the one that works for you. If he has found the correct one, he can play, with no loss in effectiveness. It's way too early to know his immediate outcome. If he had them reattached, he must have had a colostomy. More likely, an ileostomy. Edited May 31, 2016 by Kemp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I am worried about the person at this point then the player Get well Seantrell +1. It is a shame that the Agent and the Bills are using this as a way to get dirty laundry in the public. Nothing should matter than the health of the young man.
