He would be a great addition backing up Chris Brown and I sure hope the Titans land him, but all indications are that Buffalo wants a third round pick and that is probably more than Floyd Reese is willing to give up. Given his production before Magahee took over someone will surely give a third rounder for him...Maybe the titans can get a deal done before the market really heats up!

SORRY
Brown could be a superstar in the NFL but he has had health issues his entire time in the league and even dating back to College. He missed a lot of his first two years with the titans and now has broken a hand in camp this year

At this point in their careers brown has much more upside and playmaking ability IMO. If Henry comes in he will be a backup to Brown. Don't forget Brown was leading the NFL in rushing for a few weeks and stayed in the top three or so until he got hurt again. If I am not mistaken he had 100+ his first three starts in the NFL and in one of those games he only played one half.

Brown cant open his door without injuring himself. He is a brilliant player but he is very injury prone and he cant go a full 4 quarters.

Hopefully he can show a little more durability this year...that is if this hand injury heals up like it should.

Well, after following football for almost 30 years, I dont see too many players who have been "injury prone" overcome thier injuries.

I say, bring in Travis and let Brown overtake him (which I think he can if he can stay healthy).

I believe Henry could be the top RB for the Titans.

Brown has serious questions about his durability and I believe Travis could be an every-down back.

I think the Bills were fools for bumping McGahee above him. From what I've seen, Travis' numbers were better. It didn't make sense.

All indications here in Nashville have been that if travis comes in his role will be as a backup to brown and an insurance policy if brown does not hold up. I think Brown at this point is the better back without question, but like you said with his history he has a long way to go to show he can stay healthy for a whole season.

Id Love to see him back in TN!

Bring him in, and let'm duke it out for the job.
If he doesnt win it out right, then he's only a play away from starting.
