the titans have just given a 3rd rounder in 2006 for travis henry. his has to pass his physical first, to be final. i was hoping the jags got em. but oh well. this doesnt effect us anyways. just wanted to post the news.
 
Just leaves us McGahee to worry about. Rumours are this could be his breakout yr. Lets hope not. At least thats one less threat to worry about with Henry gone.
 
Wagon Circler, are you disappointed with the way that Buffalo handled Henry? Like how they kinda just pushed him out the door like he was nothing when he was a proven back?

Good news because it would not have been a nice situation for Henry to be a backup again. I think he deserves to start. Also, this means that the Bills have less in reserve after MaGahee if he were to get hurt (not that I want him to), or winded.

Not so much Nate. Travis ran great for us, he did, but this is a what have you done for me lately sport. McGahee in my opinion is on the verge of superstardom, and there was no way we could give the starting role back to Henry. It is however, too bad that Henry had that hissy fit at the end. Even though it was understandable, it left kind of a bad taste in my mouth.

I just wish Travis would have put the team first and ran just as hard in his new role, we would have had a heck of a one, two punch. I very happy with the third round pick after this long awaited trade, especially since it came from the Titans. Nice closure to a somewhat tough situation, but I am glad we can move on now.

Yeah besides Henry agreeing to stay and be the back up this really was the best case scenario for you guys. You got a high draft pick from a Titans team that will probably have a bad year. Not to mention that Henry can't really come back to haunt the Bills considering you never play them. Who becomes the backup for McGahee now though?

We have a few guys on the roster who can carry the ball a couple of times during the game while Willis rests. Looks like Reshard Lee, Shaud Williams, Joe Burns, and draft pick Lionel Gates will be duking it out in training camp for that honor.

It was a fair deal and the way the Titans have been playing it could be pratically a second round pick. Nice deal.

Good for Billy!!! I'm glad they got Henry off the market. It raises the value of Ricky Williams now!!

In other words, Autry Denson, Travis Minor etc. etc.
You better pray McGahee gets through the season healthy.
