The Facts:
Acknowledging their concerns about Fred Taylor's availability this season, the Jaguars are close to completing a long-discussed trade for Buffalo's Travis Henry. Head coach Jack Del Rio said Thursday in a statement released by the team that a deal for Henry, a Pro Bowl selection in 2003, could be completed "in the next few days or week."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Jaguars are pursuing Henry, who at 26 is nearly three years younger than Taylor, despite what Del Rio described as an encouraging workout by Taylor earlier this week. Taylor's workout prompted Del Rio to say the eight-year veteran would participate in one practice per day for at least the first week of training camp, which begins Friday, July 29.
