    Didn't' we have that with another 2nd round "henry" pick who also played RB? O yea he got blown up by some Colts player on that one kick off. Well at least we have a highlight to watch later...

    The Seahawks have lead all teams in rushing attempts over that last couple of years. They seem to be doing ok...

    We just don't know about any pick. Drafting a player that has won the Heisman Trophy means that they did something special in college football so your chances of him doing well in the NFL are a bit higher than most. Henry is a great player, hoping he's an Eddie George type great player, but ya never know. I'm thrilled at the opportunity for the Titans to find out.

    I find it humorous people are losing their minds over this pick. Our run game absolutely sucked since C.J.'s last 2 seasons here... so we go out get Murray and at least the second best (I view him as best) rb in this draft... my point being instead of hammering a nail with a noodle as we've been doing for a few years now we actually have 2 guys who can move the damn ball but now we're whining somehow because our QB who got creamed 38 times last season BECAUSE of no run game... it's like wiping before ya poop people, it don't make sense. (Thank you Larry the Cable Guy)

    Not mad about the other picks, but you're gonna pass on guys like Alexander and Fuller for Henry?

    If we had addressed our pressing needs and Henry was around at 64, I could've lived with it.

    All I can say is our run game better be damn good.

    That's the first common sense reply so far. Still love the pick lol. I wanted to get Alexander as well but it's done now.
