20. Baltimore Ravens: Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama
Finally a football analyst that gets it! 6'4 240 lbs RBs that can only run sweeps are in very high demand in the NFL.
I'm glad Alabama fans have the same opinion as me.

Derrick Henry is big and fast (a rare combination for a running back), but he isn't very quick, he doesn't display great lateral ability, and really struggles to break tackles or make guys miss unless he has a full head of steam. I also question his vision when there isn't a huge hole to hit.

He just goes down way too easily for a guy his size. And he doesn't even fall forward. His potential is high, but has a ways to go before he's a top 3 round pick.

I kinda wish he wanted to play te. I think he's potential is through the rough there, and it's becoming a higher paid position than TE, and it has a longer career shelf life.
