I'd still re-sign Perine and draft a mid-rounder to limit Henry's touches during the regular season.

For me, it just depends on what the Titans would want in return to make it worth the risk on his age.

I don't know that they could restructure him, as he's in the final year of his second contract.  I think that they only way to do what you were suggesting is to sign him to an extension.  Not sure that would work, with the Burrow, Higgins, Chase deals all looming.
