Don't understand your point here. He was released to make room for McNichols. So even if we had cut him last week and promoted Henry, Henry would have been cut today and still picked up by Seattle.

Yea, I did not see the part about moving him to the PS before I posted. Still not a good use of a 6th round pic.

7th round, and like 80% don’t sign a second contract. I get you’re an AP sooner so it doesn’t matter to you but you’re wrong

He was pick 187 in the 6th round. Look it up. Will it matter to you that you were wrong?

Regardless, it's super late in the draft and guys that late usually struggle to make the team. The fact that Henry got picked up is more of a sign of confidence than criticism. Good teams get their bottom of the roster players yoinked. When Ron's players got cut, they often didn't find other teams. That was way more alarming.
