With the 45th Pick of the 2016 Draft: Alabama RB Derrick Henry

He is a powerful back. Go back and look at all the video footage not just highlights because they mostly showcase his homerun potential. There are plenty times that Linebackers and defensive backs will go for his legs or won't even attempt to tackle him once he gets full speed. 28 TDs and you here questioning his ability to push a pile at the goal line?

 

But if it makes DW feel better I'm sure we can teach Henry how to run into defenders to show how powerful he can be.

 

lmao.... dude showed me a a chart.


WATCH people. That will help you.

Stop looking at stats that mean nothing in the NFL.


WATCH. Again... Blount does amazing things in this video that Henry is simply incapable of.

Blount has an arsenal of moves. Spins, hurdles, cuts, drags people, etc. Henry doesn't have any of this.



There is zero comparison.

 

If we could merely teach him to not be average, that'd be cool. Don't care how he does it.

 

Don't like charts?

How about this then?

 

BLOUNT runs soft....

 

Is Gurley a Titan? Did you think the Rams were gonna take him at 10? Most people had him dropping into the late 1st early 2nd because of the knee. I was hoping he would drop to us in the 2nd. Definitely the guy I wanted but he's not a Titan. As for Chubb, love the kid but he and Henry are different types of backs... oh and he's still playing ball for Georgia last time I checked. I can look at players from other teams and appreciate what they have to offer. Even I can tell you Chicago reached on Floyd or do you really think he was worthy of where he was picked?

As for the rest, you can say that if you want... I could say Michael Jackson was less talented than Prince. Then you could say but MJ could dance. Then I would say but Prince could play the guitar... perspective. We have a guy in Murray who can do the outside the tackles thing we needed a guy who can do the dirty work inside the tackles... funny thing is both can also do the other. Point being and someone made an asnine comment about Henry having to rely on other players... last time I checked 11 guys have to work together to get anything done anyway, so let's hope the guys up front block, the WR's catch, Mariota throws and runs and the RB's do their jobs regardless of who's on the field.

 

Nothing outlast the Derrick Henry debate! It just keeps on going, and going, and going...

 

And going and going.

 

LMAO and you show highlights way to go, get some actual facts you have no clue what Henry will do for us and i just dont understand why you have to dog one of the players when clearly you do not watch actual film on anything which explains why you do not even have 1 fact about anything on him other than the bullsh*t you think up, for example you said he has no burst yet hes the fastest player to 5 yards in the last 4 drafts out of all the positions and then you said he only gets huge holes to run through which is false, he got about 2 -3 holes out of every 10 plays, i am guessing you never even watched any of the 10 full game films i posted did you?
