First 3 Rounds.....

I really don't think any rb will look good behind out current oline but Henrys strengths don't match up with our current team. He needs an oline that can open holes for him to get going. He won't be able to get the edge against NFL caliber speed and hasn't shown the ability to make guys miss in the backfield. Really any rb we draft will probably look bad on this team. Not Andrews or Sankey bad but still bad.

 

Henrys best asset is he's able to move piles of people, and Ive seen him get skinny plenty of times to know he can wiggle thru any size hole..

 

Henry: 5.9 ypc. 10 runs over 29 yards and 5 over 50 yards, I couldn't find the stats for 10 plus yard carries but I saw at least 5 in his last game but yeah he's a 4 yards and a cloud of dust guy... he also averages 7.5 yards per catch. Haterz gonna hate I guess. BTW he's also a team first guy, very humble and does something a few other backs over the years do... he gets stronger as the game goes on. Oh and he also blocks better than any RB in this draft. According to damn near every expert, understanding pass protection is the single most difficult transition for a RB.

 

My hope for this draft trade down no later than 8 for extra 2nd and 3rd this year plus picks next year.

1. Tunsil (Oline must get fixed) or Hargreaves (simply the best pure corner in the draft). Ramsey would also be fine here. Boss is a no go, doesn't fit the 3-4 and we've spent the last few years trying to fit square pegs in round holes.
2. Henry (run game needs tons of help). That or a true 3-4 NT would be a good pick here since we are playing 4-3 tackles at that position.
3. DaRunnya Wilson or Coleman, MSU and Baylor WR's, both big, fast and productive.

 

Coleman isn't big.

 

1 Laremy Tunsil OT
2 Mackensie Alexander CB/ Tre'Davious White CB
3 Austin Johnson DT(NT)
and bonus picks
4 Scooby Wright III ILB

I would consider this a great draft class

 

I was going to say that 5'11" 190 isn't big, but Titan/Oiler34 got mad at me when I gave him a hard time before, so I just let it go...

 

You should watch some Ezekiel film if you believe Henry blocks better than any other RB.

Elliott is great in pass protection and is probably even better as a lead blocker for JT. He's probably the main reason OSU had success with QB runs this year.

 

Everyone would. I've seen all 4 of those guys mocked in the 1st.

 

That's great and all but it doesn't change the fact that Henry can't make a guy miss when they penetrate the backfield after the snap. On those 10 runs of 29 yards or more when was first contact made? I would bet it was the 2nd or even 3rd level every single time. How is that special?
