There's small players in the NFL but Deuce is just too small.
he's small - hes shown some flashes though...i am with you but at the same time curious to see IF he make a jump between year 1 and year 2....could really end up being an interesting piece to the offense - or could end up out of the league....problem with him is that he's going to get extra time because of his dad being on the staff....

I don't think this has ever been in play, especially with a young corner in Bland playing like one of the best in the game.
Let's be honest, Bland should of been burnt on two long TD's against the Chargers. Think he needs to play a little less aggressive. His game is similar to Diggs.

If it's money, he will get far more chances for "outside income" if he goes with the Cowboys and their very strong market.

As far as which team is closer to playing in a Super Bowl, it would be far more difficult to get past the Chiefs than the Eagles or 49ers.
Right, because we have no problems getting past the Niners.

The sleeper team expected to be in the market for Henry are the Dallas Cowboys. The belief from many is Henry could end up in the NFC East with the Cowboys if Tennessee is willing to eat some of the money remaining on Henry’s contract, estimated to be around $6.2 million.

The Cowboys have Tony Pollard at the top of the depth chart- a player they franchised after releasing Ezekiel Elliott in March. Henry’s power running style is viewed as the perfect compliment to Pollard’s big play ability as a ball carrier and pass catcher.

Pauline is proven to be one of the best insiders who has been on the money in the past.
I'll believe it when I see it. I still think Barkley is a better fit. But Henry is also a good fit.

Right now, I think Duece can help fill the stadium. Fans will come to see the diminutive RB carry the rock.

People have turned on Deuce so bad it’s laughable and sad.
Not me. I've been saying since draft day that he had no business in this league. He can't block, break tackles, or move the pile. The only GM in football that would take him is nepotism Jerry.

But the excuses flow like rain:

"They aren't using him correctly"
"He hasn't had good blocking"

Talk down on a developing but good tight end and a 6th round running back...now that has to be purely class. I don't care what unapplicable excuse one targets at them!!!!
Schoon is developing? Please explain, he's barely had any reps...

I think Tennessee will take Henry's wishes into account being that he is a top 5 all time player for that organization.

Henry would definitely much rather go to Baltimore....who always (in the modern era) have a good run blocking oLine and good coaches, and a respectable organizational hierarchy and GM to close his career out on a high note

We don't have those things... and with a certain person who will be with him behind the line of scrimmage not instilling fear in opposing defenses, Henry would be a punching bag running behind our line with our "passing game dynamic" the way it is.

He will be a Raven. We don't need to be throwing picks at a guy near the end anyway. We need to rebuild. You can't say "well our last few 2nd rounders didn't work so let's just give up and use them on guys near retirement".... no, just get better! Hire a real GM.... emulate the other successful franchises! But, sadly, we all know Jerruh would rather not win at all with him calling the shots, then win a SB with someone else leading the draft and making decisions, who might get some of the credit. His own personal ego is more important to him than the tens of millions hopes and dreams of Cowboy fans everywhere, including the 50 or so in here.
