    No one is arguing that another back can do what Henry does for cheaper. NO ONE. If we don’t sign Henry we will lose production at the position. That is a given. But how much will you lose vs how much you gain or keep at other positions is the issue. It is cost benefit analysis. With what we save on Henry can we improve enough at other spots where we can win as many or more games without him.

    I never said that a rookie would produce equal numbers to Henry. I said that the difference between henry and a rookie is not worth $14M when you could spend that money on OL and Pass Rush

    Are we in the playoffs without HENRY? Yes it no? Is it your money? Are we losing players creating additional cap space as well as a cap bump for the league?........

    That as just informational. 13 years is pretty random and it’s pretty unrealistic for anyone to expect back to back 1500 and 15 TD.

    Long history of backs that can keep solid seasons together though.

    I think Henry can put together a few 1K, 8-9 TD seasons though.

    Zeke got paid after a big season and followed it up with just as big a season.

    What pass rusher?

    Pass rushers dont just become available. Theyre like Left Tackles almost. The best ones stay with their teams. Not like Barrett or Clowney will actually hit FA

    Yea that's a good point. But theres still plenty of positions I'd rather spend that money. Draft a pass rusher first round and an RB 2nd round and spend that 14M that wouldve gone to Henry on other spots. If Henry wants to take 11M/yr, I'd welcome him back. Not 15M.

    Hahahahaha! You asked for examples of smaller to larger. Do you want us to now provide examples of running backs who had huge seasons, then had marginally worse seasons? Just admit you were wrong and move on.
