The Facts:
If the Broncos and Travis Henry can't agree on a new deal, the team will go out and get another lead, power-type back due to his belief that Young is ideal for 10 to 15 carries a game, but can't handle 20-to-25 carry back. "No, definitely not," HC Mike Shanahan said. "Any time a guy's been hurt as many times as he did, you know that there's no possible way he can carry the ball 20, 25 times a game."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Shanahan clearly values Young's big-play capabilities, but just as clearly isn't sold on his ability to handle a featured role. ... Meanwhile, as the Post suggested, the Broncos got a couple headaches and only 691 yards in return for the $6 million they paid Henry last year. He'll need to agree to a serious pay cut -- from the $6.7 million due this year -- in order to remain on board.
