I personally would not make the trade. I really do not think Housh is a Top-15 lock going forward. If Chris Henry can keep his head on straight, I really think it's only a matter of time until either 1.) Housh is splitting time with Henry or 2.) Henry takes over the #2 slot in the Bengals offense.Thurman has proved to be a playmaker. Yes...so has Wilson. However, solid 3-down MLB's are usually much harder to acquire than solid DB's.I think you're selling Bruce low and buying Housh high, plus Thurman > Wilson.

Henry Pierson, of the Orlando Sentinel, reports Cincinnati Bengals rookie WR Chris Henry was arrested Saturday, Jan. 28, and charged with possession of a concealed firearm, improper exhibition of a firearm and aggravated assault with a firearm. According to the arrest report, Henry stepped out of a limousine in downtown Orlando, Fla., and pulled a pistol from his waistband and aimed it at a group of people on the sidewalk within view of a police officer. The officer ordered Henry to drop the gun, to which he complied and was arrested. Henry was released from jail on $3,000 bail.

I wouldn;t have done it before the arrest, but if he's still willing, I'd do it now.
