    This is why I would like to see Henry in our backfield...

    “He is Eddie George,” says the veteran NFL scout. “That body can give and take punishment. Holy cow, is he physical. He is not just a back who will get the yards that are there. He'll fight for the extra yard, yard and a half that backs don’t often get at the [NFL] level.”

    George himself agrees with the comparison. “We definitely have similar styles because of our heights,” he says. “He is a heavy guy; he can wear down a defense. I don’t see where the criticism [about height] comes in. We just debunk the idea that all running backs have to be short.”

    Everybody sees him running down hill and finishing runs and makes comments like that. He seems like a slow starter that can't shake anyone and is going to get chopped down in the Titans backfield.

    I like Elliott. And Alex Collins a little later.

    what? Henry has a lot of wiggle in his game, seen him break dozens of DB's ankles

    Maybe because they had their foot planted and he ran right over them.

    Alex Collins is being significantly underrated right now. As of right now I have the RBs ranked as Elliot, Collins, and Henry. I don't doubt that as the process plays out I'll find one or two more that I'd prefer over Henry.

    Henry is going to go higher than he normally would because the offensive skill guys in the draft are terrible. Someone will take a shot on him in the middle of the second hoping he can duplicate the long runs he broke off this season.
