How good is Travis Henry?

Has no one thought that the cripple might be good for Henry? Can you say push harder to keep my job?

Maybe Willie is the next great RB, but lets save that until he plays a few games first, ok?

Why is that a bad assumption? Before he was injured, some had him projected to be #1 overall. He can cut, he has the burst, etc. The only x-factor is the injury, but I'm assuming a full recovery. A big assumption, no question, but if you can get past that assumption, I think he's a top 5. I guess we agree to disagree.

Everyone here in Buffalo, including Henry, knows that this is his last year in Buffalo (assuming that McGahee doesn't fall on his face, literally).

I like Henry but I've heard that Maghee is fully recovered and blew them away in mini-camp.

How do you get past that assumption??? There have been plenty of 1st round running backs picked, without McGehee's type injury, who were busts. And McGehee did have that major injury, so I would say that it would be foolish to assume anything about him at this point. The injury isn't the only "x" factor. His lack of having shown anything in the NFL to this point is just as big a factor. Way too early to project anything like a top 5. If he is top 5 that means he already is better than Ricky Williams, Edge, TAylor, among others. No way.

This is how I get past that assumption. The word in Buffalo is that McGahee is truly impressing. And this isn't lip service from the coaches and media. This is from people that have gone to watch them workout. Perhaps they're wrong, and maybe McGahee will be a bust, but the Bills fan in me says to stay positive, we're due.

I recall hearing how great Mcgahee was looking last year when he could still barely run.

When he could, I remember hearing how he was going to play that year.

His agent even garunteed he would make the probowl LAST YEAR.

Of all the things said about Willis so far, none have come to fruitition. Traditionally, he'll need another year to get to full strength from a normal ACL injury. Yet, if I recall his was ACL and MCL and PCL, so who knows. To say that he'll be back to full strength this year might be pushing it.

Yea, personally I think they should wait until Week 6 or 7 to get him into a game as it is pretty risk throwing him into the lineup a year and a half after he wrecked his knee.

I think the Bills handled the situation well. What would be the point of playing McGahee last year? They also know how long it takes to recover from that surgery which is why Henry is not gone already.

McGahee was hands down the best player in college football in 2002. I can't wait to see him play at 80% or wherever he is. Next year look out.

As to the agent comment, who cares. Seems they get paid to promote their clients.
