April 22, 20233 yr Gotta love it ... leaked report we're going after Henry, yet we don't end up with Henry (establishes perception that the Eagles have interest in RB). This further strengthens the idea that the Eagles may take Bijan Robinson at 10 ... a team trades up into the top 9 thinking the Eagles want Bijan thus letting another player the Eagles may "really" want at 10 slip down to them. 🤐 I believe nothing at this point ... just all misinformation until I hear it from Scheffter.

Henry has a lot of miles on him, but he still is effective. Just remember Howie is the guy who generally fleeces other teams and not the guy who gets fleeced. On a side note @NOTW these are the types of rumors that I have been missing. 😂 There are also rumors "all over Twitter" (lol) that the Titans will trade him to the Dolphins and I've seen other teams suggested. These aren't reports. These are people who want attention/clicks who make something up as a rumor or "what if" and then people discuss it as if it's legit.

My thoughts on all of this stuff is if you hear the Eagles name conned to someone it’s almost a certainty they’re not getting that player. I just love the drama putting the Eagles in any kind of rumor brings. This one blew up! 😂

I think if day 2 happens and the Eagles don't get a RB then Howie could look to make a move. Doubt it's Henry but you never know

Doubt it's Henry but you never know There was some scuttle but, but it wasn’t a hot rumor like many of the others they had. People were fairly stunned the Eagles pulled that move off. I believe most of the time the Eagles make the masses look left when they’re moving on the right. They’re a FO that prides themselves on giving people little to no real info.

Honestly I don’t think this is happening, but when it comes to contracts I wouldn’t worry at all. Jalen Hurts right now is the highest paid player in football, but have you seen his first few years cap hits? They’re close to nothing. The contract won’t be an issue.

April 23, 20233 yr 1. I don’t believe it 2. I don’t put anything past howie 3. I think it would be a huge mistake. Henry is a high volume guy. Runs from 7y deep not from the qbs hip. Won’t be a good fit in this offense.

I predicted the AJ Brown trade when he started working out with Hurts & they said they were friends.

Honestly there's a lot of talk of super secrecy but we've known who they were interested in in the draft in several year's past.

Yes. If it‘s not to expensive of a trade it would make sense for both teams though, which makes it intriguing. For me, I pay most attention to what Jeremiah says. I think he actually has some insight in our team.
April 23, 20233 yr For a low price I’d be ok with it but I don’t think it will be either in a trade nor the contract.
April 23, 20233 yr I have a hard time believing this is true when we let Sanders walk for nothing at a much younger age. Now I'm not suggesting he's in the same ballpark, but you'd have to figure Henry gets fewer carries with Hurts running and an actual passing game. Stranger things have happened, though.

April 23, 20233 yr I don't think this has any truth to it, but let's say for the sake of argument that it did ... I can't imagine the Eagles giving up anything up more than a 3rd in 2024 and the Titans still paying a portion of Henry's salary. I simply can't imagine the Eagles giving up a 3rd this year for a 29-year-old running back when for starters, they don't have a 4th, 5th or 6th round pick at the moment and two, you could have just re-signed Miles Sanders for much less money that what Henry is making and had him back without having to give up any draft picks. Is Henry still better than Miles Sanders at age 29? probably ... but let's not act like Sanders is just an average Back. Yes, he came up small in the Super Bowl, but he did rack up close to 1300 yards and 11 TD's in the regular season and he knows the system. How would Henry fit in an RPO system? Henry is mostly accustomed to a traditional one back / QB behind Center system; can he change his style to a stretch system where Jalen is yanking the ball from his gut at the last second after setting up in shotgun? I dunno ... seems to me that would nullify his head start to the LOS which is what has made Derrick Henry ... Derrick Henry. Thursday can't get here soon enough 🙂
