From a pure talent standpoint:

Drake > Jones > Yeldon > Henry > Tenpenny

Just my opinion.

Drake, Yeldon and Henry fumble to much, hurt to much. Tenpenny is just as good as Jones.

Agree .....but if Henry would realize he's 250 and run like it he'd be unstoppable.

Jones is the better RB, Henry is the better athlete.

Though, is it really that hard to be technically superior to Henry?

Henry is not an elite RB. Great athlete, but we have better RBs on our roster imo

Henry is the Julio Jones of RBs

All that power is in upper half and not the legs. You need leg power to run like that.

Henry has terrible vision almost like he runs towards contact.

Yeldon is pretty under appreciated. Give him the OL from 11/12 he is in NYC during December. So shifty reminds me of Arian Foster.

Remember when everyone thought Henry was incredible after the Sugar Bowl?

Yes, I really do not like how he runs the ball.

His problem is that he can't change direction without basically coming to a stop. Henry will run right through an arm tackle, but if he tries to make a guy miss he goes to 0mph and loses all momentum, thus becoming easy to tackle


Tyren Jones probably has the best RB skills on the roster, inching out Yeldon.

I hope we continue to give Jones a few carries going forward

Me too. He can put his foot in the ground and get north with a quickness like no one else we have. The kid is a special runner, I knew it when I watched his high school film a few years ago

Jones reminds me of Ingram.

He has a lot more top end speed than MI ever did. If jones drops his head back, he gone.
