    Old enough to realise a pathetic attempt at an insult that you'd hear in a school yard, not amongst adults.

    But thank you for continuing to prove my point.

    I'm sorry that I don't watch Dragonball Z or play dungeons and dragons, dude. Last time I checked you insulted me, and I simply asked you the same question...how is that a pathetic attempt at an insult? It was your own insult...

    When the FO takes a RB the year after taking one in the second round the previous draft, I think it's fair to be critical of investing so much into one position.

    Either they plan on playing Johnson mainly at WR and Henry will be the #2 or they have already given up on Henry after only one season.

    If nothing else Henry can be moulded into a special teams star.

    He was a bad pick but he has the athleticism to contribute somewhere for us.

    He can run those drinks onto the field quickly.

    I think your right TJ.

    Henry appears to have been a "combine wonder" that just doesn't have RB skills. He has been admittedly slow absorbing running style instruction- cutback lanes, patience, gap vision/recognition, etc. He is another development project that was way behind schedule and it appears right now he may never improve.

    The problem folks have with MR/JF is that he was also a huge reach. He would have been there in the third round. It really didn't set up the situation for MR/JF to reach again for Johnson. IMO in Johnson's case, he would have gone early second round- so it is arguable if it really was a reach. He was another "combine wonder". I don't think he would have been available for us in the second.

    Henry's 4 game suspension didn't help his status with our coaches either. The "non-steroid" and otherwise poorly defined substance violation casts a dark cloud on his future in the NFL.

    Why in the hell would anyone assume we are done with Henry??? Didn't we carry four RB's last season (Ganther)??? Didn't Chris Brown find a new team in Houston??? The same crowd was probably saying the same thing about White last draft. If Henry comes to camp ready to play, you better believe he'll take on a more active role. Either way, I think Chris Johnson will get ample playing time. Totally different skill set. We'll probably see him in the slot when he's not in the backfield.
