Tiniest bit of credit, he did seem to nail that. Can’t find anything else he was in on. 

Haha yeah. It's hard to tell with these things sometimes.  I'm going to guess fake news though.

Agreed. Gut feeling is he ends up in Baltimore. 

[OldTimer1960]

I know it’s just a rumor, but I don’t even like that the idea has been floated.  Derrick Henry would not fix a thing for this team - not with all the beatings he took in Tenn.

Because when I think of our problems I think of RB. 
 

Dorsey probably cant wait to constantly run the draw out of shotgun with Henry

The Bills are apparently rumored for every single player that is ever available or even not available.

[BBFL]

[Steptide]

If the bills actually trade for Henry, this screams to me that the bills absolutely will not let Josh run and be a super hero. 

[bigduke6]

i dont buy this at all.  why would you invest in a RB who relies on a very good run blocking OLine,  when 1,  we dont have one,  2  we already have a thumper in Murray, who imo,  has played well.   just doesnt make sense to me.

Elam and a 4th for Henry and a 7th

Someone on wgr was saying that too. Maybe Mike schoop. They're already a tough team. That'd be a good pickup for them.

I tried Viagra once. The pill got stuck in my throat, I had a stiff neck for a week.

We're giving them, an albeit under performing, 22 year old 1st Round CB with up to 3 years on his deal for a RB with 10 regular season games left on his deal and a 6.3 million dollar price tag - and we're also sending a 4th in exchange for a 7th? No way.

Nope. Just the remainder of this season.

This link states Baltimore making the biggest push.

 

If we make a move I really think it will be a different direction than running back. Or we stand pat. But wouldn’t surprise me if some afc competitors look to get better.

That would suck. Now we can run him from the gun with the HB draw. Derrick is someone who needs a full head of steam. Our offense doesn’t really match well with his talents 

Behind Morse ?

Bills are not a team who can run up the middle by pure force , no matter if it was Derrick thebeast  Henry.

No knock on Morse but as long as he is center Bills cannot be a ground and pound , or cloud of dust type of team.

Finesse would do them well.

Cook has that 

with Murray and the Other guy   ?, ideally that's a fine balance conceptually imho

Look to the Broncos for trades. I mean please actually look McBeanes

you can’t compare Murray to Henry. It’s like saying why would the bucs trade for Josh when they have baker. 
 

the real issue is I’m not sure this was ever the “all in” year in our window and an aging back is a big push of the chips that’s unlikely to make the difference

honestly I think a more natural fit there 

 

Mike evans is the guy I’d be trying hard to steal

I’m going to keep saying it. Curb stomp the bucs, break their playoff hopes, and tell them to leave mike evans in Buffalo.

Especially when we are going to have to have a mini repair spurt this offseason to get under the cap. If there was ever a time to push the “all in” mantra, it would be this season. 

 

1000%

 

 

[HalftimeAdjustment]

We should look for a DL, LB, or even CB. A WR would be nice but not a must. We are set at RB.

[Chugga]

If Henry can consistently gain 5 yards on a shotgun draw then I’m all for it.  If not then I like what we have at RB.  Now Davante Adams?  That’s a different story

[Milanos Milano]

If we had Henry, the game was over even before that Hail Mary. He picks up that first down that Murray didn’t.

I believe Cook would've gotten it!! He ran well tonight

Cook is very good as the lightning role, he isn’t big enough to also be the thunder. I don’t think he picks that up due to the lack of physicality. Cook is great, but i want him utilized in space. I want to pair Cook with Henry.

I can’t take anymore Murray. I really hope we splash here and make this trade happen. Imagine the passing offense tonight with Henry and Cook? Good luck.

yes and Henry is actually a better receiving back than given credit for

Just a random thing I saw that said he wasn't a likely candidate to go to Miami because he didn't fit that offense because the pass catching part of his game had deteriorated for whatever that is worth, haven't actually paid attention.

The Zach Ertz thread lasted through two seasons. This Henry thread seems cute.

Mike Schopp said yesterday that 80% of Bills fans would be ok if they sent a 2nd for Henry. 

 

I was like you're out of your mind. 

 

We've known this for a long time.

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).

 

 

 

Things can change.  But if I recall correctly, NFL insiders have repeatedly commented that the one team they get the least info about their planned moves is the Bills.  So if there are rumors and talk running around the league, I'm less inclined to believe it's a likely move.

This is true. Stuff that gets reported on as rumors involving us before they happen, never happen. Fans work themselves up into a frenzy and threads are made for pages and pages and then nothing.

Henry makes no sense we need a #2WR.

Also more importantly a DT or CB.
