So far in the season its looking like a very Big Mistake our GM did not go after Derrick Henry! :facepalm::mad: :banghead: Should have paid more than the Ravens and got him here in my opinion. Be interesting if he keeps balling the whole season!
Dallas could not afford Henry's salary due to the amount were paying our elite quarterback.

Heck, it would have been good to have Bucky Irving in the 4th Round this year. He was taken 1 pick after SF used the 4th we gave them for Trey Lance.

25 Rushes, 154 Yards, 6.2 avg.
Allen in NY would've been something. Too many teams slept on him, I guess because he's so young? Dude is a dump truck though.

I'm winking to bet our fans and media would be saying the opposite if he came here and ran with this oline and defense making us have to Pass the majority of the time

You mean our Phenom emergency QB.

How is Trance our 9th highest paid player on the Cap this year?

You can thank GM Jethro.

No it was not a mistake. I am glad we didn't make that move.
Yeah, rolling with the Ewok and the other practice squad trash we have in the RB room was a much wiser decision than, you know, signing the guy that currently leads the NFL in rushing.............mistake avoided indeed:thumbup:

I would agree but this Dallas team has far more problems than just RB.

That's not what prevented Jerry from signing Henry. There's was never a point where we could not sign Henry easily this off season. It was just another in a long series of Jerry thinking he's the smartest guy in the room, then proving he's the biggest moron.

Foles was not an option and he then won a SB that season.

Brady was not an option and he then won a SB that season.

Henry was not an option, and now leads the league in rushing yards which is exactly what this team needs on offense. Watch the Ravens make it to the SB now with Henry being the biggest reason why on offense. That would figure.

I didn't want Henry here for the sake of his career, but always remember Jerry was implying Zeke was just as good.

Zeke was never the same after the suspension. His rookie year and up until that 6 game suspension, he was the best RB in the league and was electrifying. Changed our offense immediately. Henry definitely has the longevity, though.
