If I were Henry, I would have pushed for the Jaguars. They are a playoff contending team with an older, injury-prone RB. The Titans are a basement team with a young, possibly up and coming, injury-prone RB.
That said, even if the Jags offered a 3rd rounder also, it definitely won't be as high a pick as the one from TEN. Good move on Donahoe's part. It usually pays well to trade with one of the worst teams in the league.

Look, Henry got there just in time to warm the bench, Maybe Henry can be our best asset for 3rd Down since Brown on 3rd didnt do so well, or maybe they want a dual rushing attack, I dont know im not a Coach. I am hoping this will pay off in the long run.
The Method 2 This madness however I think is to motivate Chris Brown, and get him to be a little more finesse with his moves, once again, I dont know Im not a Coach.
I hope that Brown starts because he still has a bright future, if He goes down though, and Henry gets to carry the ball, and he does well, then I welcome him for the future.

In all this though while Im looking at his stats and how everyone said he was a big time rusher, did anyone count in when he had his 2 big seasons, he fumbled 11 times in 2002 and Lost 8 of them, and in 2003 he fumbled 7 times and lost 3 of them.

Henry will start ahead of Brown, the whole reason he wanted to be traded was to be a starter and you don't trade away 3rd round picks for backups. Good move for the Titans, Henty is a better back.

Not sure who Henty is? But Hes gotta fight to start, They better give Brown at least a chance. Otherwise he will ask to leave the orginization, and go to jacksonville where he and Fred Taylor cant get injured together, But Brown is solid, Had he not have gotten Injured Last year, this wouldnt even be discussed.

I would be shocked if Henry wasn't the primary running back for Tennessee. Why would the Titans trade for a player who was demanding a trade because he was the backup only to make him a backup again? I would think Chris Brown would be the third down running back, at least until he gets himself hurt again. While Brown does have above average talent, he just misses too much time to be relied on as a starter. I like the move by the Titans; they're still going to be a pretty bad team this year, but at least they have a back they can count on.

Brown will get his chance but Henry is just a better ball player he's going to lose his starting job, Brown also got hurt again this offseason he broke his hand. Henry is durable he's played a fulll season before, Brown can't even stay healthy in the offseason let alone the regular season.

Henry is a better RB than Chris Brown. 2 1500 yards seasons and I think he is just gonna be 26. Good deal for Tennssee and my guess is Brown will be on his way out in the near future.
