THIS SUCKS FOR YOU GUYS!

Ricky Williams may be a good running back, but in my mind the price was too high. Miami got Williams and a fourth round pick from New Orleans in return for a first round pick and a fourth round pick. Sounds like a fair trade right?

But, if Ricky gains 1200 yards, New Orleans also gets Miami's second round pick this year. The real kicker is, if Ricky gains 1500 yards, that second round pick becomes a first round pick.

Travis Henry was a second round pick and he is every bit the back that Williams is and there's no downside like the Ricky deal.

If he gets 1500 yards, then there is no downside. Our pick will only be one pick away from a second rounder anyway.

May be? Ricky IS a good back, and he's a lot better than Travis Henry ever will be.

but in my mind the price was too high.

That's why you're not an NFL coach. Sometimes you have to roll the dice if you want a good, proven player.

BTW, that 4th round pick was spent on Randy McMichael.
