I think cook can come in mid field to spread it out put murray is great at pass protection when you want to air it out. Just saying we aren't talking about 2020 henry and odds are dorsey wouldn't use him right any ways. Probably start the drive with 3 shotgun handoffs and punt lol.

BullBuchanan Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 It's probably to add him to the PS to take Ty Johnson's spot. 11 minutes ago, Warriorspikes51 said: Henry and Cook on either side of Allen Kincaid in the slot.

The Red King Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Honestly, I'd love to have him here. Problem is, there are a lot of problems to fix here, and RB ain't one of them. Unless you totally revamp the offense to feature Henry, Cook, Kincaid, Diggs and Davis. But again, that's a completely different offensive scheme. Not sure I'd trust Dorsey with the switch.

But what would Henry average here with Allen and the pass attack? With Titans they have to key in on stopping Henry, here they can't do that. So can't really compare the YPC, two different situations. I think Henry could average over 5 here running in this offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this line? Our run blocking isn't great and for pass pro we been using Knox and murray. I'd rathe see 5 yard slants to Dhop and Diggs vs running henry 15-20 times when we have cook and murray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 4 hours ago, Alphadawg7 said: Im not proposing anything here...just sharing info. Interesting day over here...A buddy called me earlier today who has also been a source of some info in the past (for example he was the one who leaked the Rams vs Bills season opener last year to me a month early) and he just he heard some chatter potentially linking Bills and Henry today. I just got home right now from being out and about for a little bit running errands and I got a text from a bookmaker buddy of mine about how the Bills are now the betting favorites in Vegas to land Henry at 2/1 odds. My immediate comment to him was to ask him if that is just because Beane freed up some cap space. He said it's possible, but more likely Vegas at least heard or caught wind of something suggesting at least interest rather than just make that move over a small cap move. So take it with a grain of salt...but just found it interesting that in the same day Beane freed up cap space Vegas made the Bills the betting favorites to land him. Did a quick google search to pull up the odds and found this link right away. https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/buffalo-bills-trade-rumors-odds-derrick-henry-tennessee-titans#:~:text=Buffalo is granted a 33.3,(%2B300%2C 25 percent).

QCity Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I'd say the odds of him ending up on the Bills are a lot better than him making it through the season. He's a 29-yr old power back with some rough miles on him. Those 300+ touch seasons take their toll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 It would be a very Billsy move to go after another RB, give up draft picks and pay him 12 million per year and then give him 5 touches a game. Until this offense and Dorsey figure out an identity for itself, I kinda doubt they can utilize any of their skill players efficiently. I personally would rather us just get back to our late 2021 offense which didn't run at all outside of #17 and was nearly unstoppable until 13 seconds happened.
