Henry isn't the bruiser like Lacy, Ingram, or Trent, but he's gotten better at grinding out tough yards and not getting brought down so easy. He is, without a doubt, heads and shoulders better than those guys at making an explosive play. We haven't had a back who could take it to the house from anywhere on the field like he can.


This.

Lacy

Was the bruiser with power and that insane spin move.

quote:

Ingram

Best at seeing the holes open up with enough wiggle to skip through them and enough power to fall forward. Best vision and balance of those listed.

quote:

Trent

Best fast twitch/plant the foot and go moves of the group. Lacked vision and top end speed. Engaged in contact to a fault, but damn I loved watching him punish defenders.

With Henry, he would separate himself if giving the number of passes out of the backfield like Yeldon he would be a shoe-in for the Heisman.

I'd have to give that to Yeldon. His moves in tight spaces are unreal.
