Making the Correct Decision (Henry or Maroney)

Found August 06, 2007 on FanProphet:
PLAYERS: Travis Henry,  Laurence Maroney
TEAMS: Denver Broncos,  New England Patriots

We all know that Maroney is a special player who runs with overwhelming intesity, explosiveness, and...Henry also finds himself in an ideal situation in Denver where he will...

  • I could go either way on this. No one has the ability to disrupt a fantasy season, positively or negatively, more than Travis Henry. I'm a little concerned about Maroney's shoulder, but Henry isn't the healthiest dude and it's not all that difficult to get into Shanahan's doghouse. I wouldn't overbid for either guy and I'd take the one that drops the furthest in the draft.

  • "No one has the ability to disrupt a fantasy season, positively or negatively, more than Travis Henry" LOL! How true is that statement? That's a great comment, but what could be troublesome is, what if both players remain on the board? :)

  • Hard to go against any RB in Denver's system. They all get 1000 yds.

  • If I had to choose one I don't know what I would do but picking at the last pick of the first round I landed both of them. Hopefully they both have good years for my sake.

  • Have you SEEN Maroney's stiff arm? Nuff said.

  • Maroney. He is in a better offense and is primed for a great season. He won't be competing with Dillon for carries and should be able to be a top 10 back in this league. I like Henry, but I don't think he puts up the total yardage that Maroney will get.

  • Okay this is a crazy question to even ask Travis Henry 100% with out even playing a full season he put up 1200 yards.... how can you not expect him to go to Denver and not get 1400 barring injury and i dont see him getting hurtHe wont be splitting his reps to often and Denver is a running team look at Mike Anderson Rueben Droughns Garrison Hearst i think people have learned not to trade for Denver Backs cause in Denver they put up 1000+ yards anywhere else they are at best mediocre. The only exception is Portis but screw the skins Denver got Bailey and portis is a second round fantasy RB in most leagues. NE installs all these WR's and you guys think there run game will keep up with Denvers hahahaha thats like agreeing with Willis that hes better than LT if you think Maroney is the better rusher do yourself a favor and check into a mental ward

August 06, 2007
Florida defensive end Jarvis Moss has hurt his left knee today in Broncos training camp. Moss was doing a one-on-one drill when he did a spin move and then started limping.
