Today at press conference, Parcells saying Henson will not make roster.
Mike the Brit said:Well, there's the difference between master and pupil. Would Belichick EVER say such a thing publicly about a player currently on the roster? You'd either have to be the world's worst man-manager or the world's best to do that sort of thing.
tombonneau said:Forget about the personal slight to Henson, its just a dumb business move. Why announce to the world you are cutting a former top prospect. Considering the stiffs a lot of teams are starting at QB, let alone rostering as backups, someone would surely be willing to part with a Day 2 pick for a guy with Henson's chimeral "upside."
Probably told him he liked playing for the Yankees better.mikey said:Wow ...
You could see this coming. Mr. Henson played 0 minute in pre-season.
But you have to wonder what Mr. Henson did for Mr. Parcell to publicly humiliate him.

Michigan Dave said:Trust me, his upside is amazing.
primetime said:You don't win football games with upside.
tombonneau said:Any chance BB signs him as a total pisstake. Just to cater to Brady's ego. You just know Tom would love having Henson back up his back up.
Michigan Dave said:Very true. However, you also don't realize potential by not getting reps.
Michigan Dave said:He was Jerry's guy. Talking to Drew, he said he never felt he had a fair shot there. Parcells wanted to make the team his, and squash any thought that he would be another Switzer/Campo who swooned at Jerry's beck and call. Jones wanted Henson to start, and made that known. Parcells started him on Thanksgiving 2 years ago, pulled him at halftime, and then was pretty much done with him. It's how Parcells is (Pats fans know how he likes "his" guys) and unfortunately for Drew, his dream of being a Cowboy is over. He'll catch on. Trust me, his upside is amazing.
MoLewisrocks said:Thak's what the Yankees thought too. Bunk. He's just a college wonderboy QB who was told since HS there was nothing he couldn't do. The NFL is littered with such notable talents. Brady survived him and surpassed him because when he never felt he had a fair shot at Michigan or in the NFL he just worked harder and forced them to give him his due. Henson is now and has always been a quitter, and that is what Parcells likely can't stand about him.
TO was Jerry's boy too. And Romo was Jerry's boy before Henson was. Parcell's doesn't care whose boy is out their as long as he goes out a winner. If he thought Henson wasn't a stiff he would not hesitate to keep him and use him. He knows the pre season has changed little, the other Drew looks fine now but he will fade like a cheap suit down the stretch because that is what he is. No way Parcell's cuts a guy who would come in handy in that liklihood - particularly for a rookie from NC State he could stash on the PS.
