I thought the same thing about Henry and I agree with you, but if they like Manningham as much as speculated he won't be available in the later rounds. Not to mention that Michigans pro-day was on March 21st, which was well before Henry got the axe. Since that pro-day was on the 21st of March it appears they have been interested in Manningham for a while.

Henry was a #3 WR and it is highly unlikely that they look at the first round to replace that slot WR.
