    To be fair he wasn't given a lot of chances to catch passes but he wasn't horrible at it. Drake usually took those duties. We also don't need him to be a great pass catching RB right away since Demarco is a very good receiving back.

    This is not worth continuing.

    I'd really love to see why you sheep are so butthurt over my comments here. I mean I said "Every RB still on the board" going into the third round after Henry was selected. OMG I'm such a meanie hater.

    Sheep.

    You're perfectly entitled to your opinion as far as I'm concerned. When you started making exaggerated claims of support, I simply called your bluff. If you have an opinion state it and own it without embellishment and we can avoid this in the future.

    It really is that simple.

    Dude said "And they are all about 3 tiers lower then Elliott or Henry. Want another Stankey?"

    and "yes and he is at the same level as lot of the RB left. (obviously except a sleeper)" this referring to Sankey.


    What a HUGE exaggeration I made! :rolleyes:

    I mean that is the exact same level of exaggeration made against me when I stated "every rb is left on the board" and posters hammered me saying I was stating Henry would be an NFL bust. Exact same thing.

    As far as I can see, lack of receptions was due more to not being asked to than he can't. They had and used Drake for that role.

    And to be honest for as good as everyone says Elliot's hands are, Henry looked more natural catching the ball at the combine. Who knows until he actually gets out there and does it.

    I was fine rolling with Murray and the chumps. But I can't be mad at picking up a huge RB like Henry.

    He's here to convert short yardage plays and beat the hell out of a defense. That helps everyone on the offense.

    Imagine if the line is as nasty as advertised and Murray and Henry are pounding forward a good part of the game, the defense is wore out and Mariota and the receivers are still fresh. That's points on the board.

    It was unexpected and not my favorite move, but I do see the potential that the combo of all the picks has to make this team better.

    Looks like to me you're upset about being caught doing what you complained about here:

    How about being adult enough to try to correct it? (example here) :

    Or alternatively, you can continue with your current behavior. Either way, I'm done with this. I've no doubt you'll have the final word.

    Exactly

    A strong RB is more valuable than a crappy CB
