What's everyone's take on this guy. He was on pace for nearly 1,600 yards rushing until he turned into Fred Taylor again. Do you like his potential? Or are you scared of another injury?

add that to him ALREADY BEING INJURED, i wont draft him top 10 in RBs...
Yeah but last year was a bad situation for a RB in TEN too, especially with McNair being out, and the way the Titans sucked in general. He's definitely not worthy of being drafted top 10, but if he stays healthy could he turn in a top 10 performance? Especially if the Titans improve and put him at the goal-line more often?
I would not risk a 3rd round pick on him because of all the injury concerns. I think he will be gone be for the fourth. He is just not productive enough to off set the risk in my opinion. Not a big td producer

The situation in TEN is worse now. They lost a lot on D, and on O, they lost Mason and have very little depth at WR. Calico is coming off a bad injury, and Bennett is suspect as a #1 WR.
Brown will no way put up top 10 numbers in TEN, but Travis Henry might. TEN is going to cave and put up the 3rd rounder for the University of Tennessee native...at least in my opinion

Just curious here, what would make Henry perform so much better than a healthy Brown in that offense? Are you simply saying that he will just be more willing to play through injury?
IF the Titans don't cave in and grab Henry, Brown would make a very nice 4th rd. pickup. He's a solid #2 RB IMO with the talent to be top 10, he just doesn't have quite the heart to do it yet.
I like simple pleasures, like butter in my ass, lollipops in my mouth. That's just me.
i like his potential, but won't draft him because of his risk and situation. I traded him in my dynasty league for future rook picks because i don't have faith in him staying healthy. he has a long injury history from college

Aside from his injury concern, is the fact that Tennessee's defense got flat-out raped over the course of the past two seasons.... The result is going to be a LOT of playing from behind, which doesn't typically bode well for RB's.... I'm avoiding Brown this year....

I just personally think that Henry is a better RB.
Henry also has more experience playing behind a suspect line and suspect offense in general. He also strived doing so.
I also interpret their whole desire for Henry as a sign that they dont think Brown can live up to a top 10 standing. If they trade for Henry, they are going to use him.
