I'm not for it because he is 30 and I know Jerry would pay too much.
We need the salary cap room. Just draft a RB and sign a vet for the min.
If we don't fix the OL coaching and scheme signing Henry would just be waste.

I'm not interested in paying a vet RB. Get fresh legs in the draft.

Dowdle flashed brilliance, yes.

Signing Henry now feels an awful lot like when Dallas signed Eddie George in 2004 under the delusion he had something left.
Henry behind this line and blocking scheme is a 500 yard back.

Word is they're going to be spending free agent bucks on a veteran running back this offseason, because of course they are. Let's just dump all of our resources into the least valuable positions we can and then wonder what the hell happened in January.

Yes Dowdle was good before getting banged up a bit late in the season. And he's a free agent again in March.

I would rather get Josh Jacobs.
I wouldn't be upset with Henry but Jacobs is only 25 right now....i think he is the bull/versatile back our offense needs.

Fix the o line (use most of the cap space for that) and draft a strong RB. That should solve it.

I saw a mock a few days ago with the Cowboys getting him. He would be a sweet pick.

I would rather spend the CAP room we create on a DT that will impact the defense significantly. I don't know why out OL can't seen to open holes against anyone, but the Packers have a no name OL and they do just fine.
I think we can find a RB or two in the draft.
Jerry can show he is serious about winning by signing a top tier DT that will be disruptive and help Micah get fewer double teams. Signing Henry would be a typical Jerry splash move to appease the fans.

Only way Pollard comes back is a change of pace. He won’t be back. The draft will bring a bunch of young RB. Get a good one but not in first round. Forget RB that cost 5 million plus. Get a young hungry guy. And keep Luepke as a lead blocker.

Ya 2016 was the time to take Henry . We can get a good back in draft in later rounds
