ans4e64 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Does Arizona really think that J.J Arrington is their guy. I mean come on, he's 26 years old and hasnt played a down in the NFL yet. I mean Marcell Ship is decent at best. I would much rather have Travis Henry than those two guys. And they picked Arrington with the 2nd rounder that they would have given us. I would have traded us the pick for Henry I think they would get better vaule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is far faster and can contribute as a receiver out of the back field and might even be able to return kicks, two things Henry will likely never excel at.

ans4e64 Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 i just figure that Shipp adds the catching and everything that henry doesnt have, which makes them compliment each other perfectly. It sounds like Arrington and Shipp are very similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works out perfectly for all sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans4e64 Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 Arrington is better than a 1400 yard rusher in the NFL? How can you say you would rather have someone who is not proven? but i guess im the only one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you say you would rather have someone who is not proven? but i guess im the only one 317577[/snapback] hes a 1400 yard back w/ fumbling problems and injury concerns. he's already taken a ton of punishment and he's dumber than a box of rocks. travis single handedly cost us at least 3 games during the 02-03 season. games where his fumbles were either returned for or lead to tds. add to that bitter and wants to be a feature back looking to make a huge check next year - when his contract is up take arrington everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Arrington has proven dick in the NFL. When he actually steps onto the field and rushes for 1,400 yards and scored 12 TD's, and even reaches just 40 receptions, then talk to me about being better than Travis. The same goes for the top-5 RB's. Potential means you haven't done anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Arrington is a far better all around threat then Henry will ever be. He is far faster and can contribute as a receiver out of the back field and might even be able to return kicks, two things Henry will likely never excel at. 317565[/snapback] Arrington has proven nothing in the NFL....TH has two 1300+ yards seasons in the NFL playing in the toughest division. If I had the 2nd round pick I would rather pull the plug on TH rather than an unproven rookie. I think the problem was the Cardinals were already pushed into a corner with all the announcments that the deal would be for Shelton and/or swap of the 2nd rounders...To have made a trade to exchacnge TH for the 2nd round pick would have shown Dennis Green in Very Poor light and considering his known huge Ego, DG definitely was not going to concede and make that deal.

LabattBlue Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Green did not want to give up a pick either in the form of a swap of 2nd rounders or a pick straight up for TH. He wants to get rid of Shelton badly and the only offer on the table was TH for LJ, no picks involved. Now that he has drafted Arrington, I see no reason to believe that he has changed his stance.

Kevbeau Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 A aging and banged up Emmitt Smith and Troy Hambone rushed for almost 1700 yards for the Cards last year. With their recieving threats I wouldn't be surprised at all if Arrington leads the rookie class and is a ROY candidate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch19079 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 i thaught that if a RB got over 2000 yards in a season they were garenteed the heisman. i guess not huh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
