    He had the best time of any player in the last 3 drafts to 5 yards that's insane burst but Wayne doesn't think so but that's ok because Wayne is always wrong about everything and always will be, when he says they are slow they are fast and when he says they will bust they will go to the PRO BOWL simple logic.:loser:

    My main gripe with Henry is his balance and too tall to get lower than the defenders.

    Too tall to lower his pads, hit someone, bounce off and keep going. Pretty much everyone else can get lower than him, hit his legs and he just falls forward.

    I am not gonna call him a bust or anything. I'm just not expecting anything eye popping from him off the bat.

    I live 4 hours from Nashville and have always heard Eddie likes to play hide the pickle with guys.

    Who cares? He was a good RB.

    He does have a straight up running style... But he will be coached to lower his shoulders in the NFL. If he can run like he did in college, I don't care if he gets knocked down easily after running 40-50 yards. Lol

    Check Titansonline for a video titled "Is Henry the next Eddie George" side by side examples of their running styles...if they switched jerseys you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. If Henry can be half of the RB Eddie was for the first few years with Murray around, we will be set.

    I am not in the non believer class, although I do see him struggling getting down hill to the front. I saw that in the game vs Clemson. He couldn't shift and regain momentum very well. I would have preferred to draft RB next year, but I really can't complain. He is a thumper running behind another thumper and we have bolstered our front. This may pay nicely.

    Hey, I've said it plenty of times, RB was the least of positions I thought should be drafted. I just can't be mad at the thought of 2 RBs punishing a defense the whole game and really opening things up for Mariota and the WRs/TEs.

    If it works on the field like it reads on paper, this could be a really good move.

    Yeah, my first thought of our draft was OH S#$%#. Now, I think we did really well. Not a whole lot to complain about really. The Titans are going to smash heads like men and see who is left standing after 4 quarters. I can get along with that!
