  1. Anyone else notice that Travis Henry got $12M guaranteed from the Broncos but McGahee only got $7.5M guaranteed by the Ravens?

    Mcgahee henry debate...dumb..

    Mcgahee was rushing for over 1000 yards for 2 straight seasons while henry sat on his arse and smoked weed.

    In the last three seasons henry missed 10 games due to injury and 4 more due to a suspension. Mcgahee missed 2 due to injury. Who is more reliable the guy who missed 14 games or the guy who missed 2?

    I wouldn't doubt if the newly enriched henry has a 500 yard season at denver while mcgahhe pounds out another 1000+ for the ravens. Stop this henry lovefest crap. He has his flaws! He has disappeared for seasons before.

    And mcgahee is 3 years younger! He would have been outstanding with the titans. If only..

    Starkiller..

    Mcgahee was not a free agent. He would have made less playing for the bills another year and didn't have 10 teams trying to sign him.
     
  5. So? He negotiated a new contract as part of making the trade happen.

    Did you watch any Bills games last year? The guy just went off and had himself a Billy Volek like second half.

    Not that it matters anymore, but I'll still take a 3 year older and better Henry over McGahee. I think Willis is more of a name that people know than anything.

    Gosh thanks starkiller...

    Negotiating a deal to make a trade happen isn't the same as being a free agent is it? Did he have several teams bidding for his services? No and that is why his contract isn't the same.

    How hard is that to fiqure out? As long as mcgahee plays well enough to keep making the team he will actually get more than henry because of the bonus he gets after his first and second years. He gets $5M after this year and $1.5M after the next. His deal is longer than henry's 7 years and averages out to $5.7M per. Still not bad..

    how is he not better? in starting years he averages more yards, a higher YPC and more TDs. we also got him for a lot less.

    me thinks the ravens got reamed.
