Drew Henson

[STICK]

i wonder if the cards are interested in henson....... he was rated higher than both carr and harrington when they came out of college. he supposedly is playing his last yr with the yanks. ........ why couldnt the cards have taken a flyer on him say in the 5th round

Would you have been happier with a guy who may never play in the NFL than a guy like Kenny King, who looks to have been a steal? At this point, I'd much rather have made the pick of King.

Wouldnt want him!

I dont care how hi guys like Russ are on him. He hasnent seen nor touched a football in probably four years. To go right into the NFL with that long of an absence I just dont see him being successful. Especially being that he would be playing a position that has one of the highest bust potential, and Thats with players that have been playing the game!

Drew Henson should play in Canada for a few years, and then make himself eligible for the NFL Draft.

Its not like he needs the money so he needs to sign a contract immediately. He already has more money than he will ever need.

I think I pretty much agree. Some cases of this problem are Chad Hutchinson in Dallas and Josh Booty. Both of them played baseball and when they came back they never picked up where they left off their football careers.

About the only way I would have considered it for the Cards was if they had a 2nd 6th or 7th rounder because you could consider that a throw away pick I guess but there is still talent and value even in round 5.
