If you remember, Derrick Henry was a lot more finesse early on in his career. Granted, he was bigger, faster and stronger than everybody in high-school and a lot of the time in college. He didn’t always run with such physicality, though, from what I remember.

Right. Henry would go down pretty easy in the backfield. It was in the open field that he broke tackles and stiff armed mofos into the ground.

Yup. I used to bash him for being soft, then he won the Heisman trophy.

Joiner's film looks ok. He has a burst for being 220, doesnt break tackles for the most part, but does have good hands out of the back field and has decent speed.

good pick up and may work his way into the rotation.

At times Henry looked like he wasn’t even having to struggle to. He was an intimidating presence coming at you full speed, while you stand there and wait to see if he is going to plow through you, or make a cut you can’t react to because you are prepping for a frontal assault!
