I am not sure of the class or NFL prospects for Yeldon and Henry. I am assuming both would be pretty marketable. That said Saban does a good job keeping kids.

Henry is only a soph

Unfortunately, Bama will have the same mediocre RBs once again. The only loss they will have is Noodie (Fowler) and he's probably the best of the bunch.
I don't know why sabear can't get another Ingram/Richardson/lacy body type.

Henry is not eligible to turn pro even if he wanted. Their other running backs will likely come from Kenyan Drake, Tyron Jones, and Bo Scarborough

I think if Henry had more balance he would be devastating. Still a quality back.
So where does that leave Yeldon? Old enough to leave but probably staying? Graduating?

I am assuming the line will be pretty good - atleast with Robinson

Whoever it it, the gumps will proclaim him the GOAT.
Except for his back-up, who will be even better.

I would expect Yeldon to turn pro, but he hasn't announced anything yet

I think he was presently grading as a 2nd round pick, because he's great at catching out of the backfield and has legit speed.
Of course, not sure how having to sit out part of the Sugar Bowl will play into that, or if he will grade better/worse in the combines. That said, I expect him to declare.

At RB that is pretty solid no reason to stick around unless he loves school.
RBs are more a commodity in the NFL these days

Coker isn't definite?

Probably gets the nod, but Barnett coming in is seriously legit. He could win the job.

Do you really trust an Elite 11 QB with the history they have?
A few are really good, most end up pretty irrelevant

Who would take any RB? RBs in the league are nearing disposability. Run one for a season or so, toss him out, repeat.

I would want him on my team personally. I wouldn't want to spend too high of a pick on him though.

What about that Tenpenny kid from Little Rock?

1.) 3 distinctly different body types
2.) Kenyan Drake
3.) Tyren Jones & Altee Tenpenny
4.) Bo Scarbrough,Desherrius Flowers and possibly another 5'11" 210lb+
