So they want to bring in someone Sherman Smith is familiar with, and see if he can spell Portis effectively. I doubt he gets picked up, if so then Mason or Betts is gone, and I think both are now entrenched in their spots. I would say this has to be all coaching decisions, I don't see the FO hand in it at all.

Good point about the Sherman Smith connection. I don't think he gets signed either but since we are approaching the trade deadline it's possible we move Rock or Betts (though not likely) so maybe they want to get a feel for who's out there. Wasn't Henry a 1st or 2nd rounder a few years ago?
