I would take either. Both are great team players with elite strength and speed. Comparing Henry to Fournette is like comparing Jimmy Page to Eric Clapton. At that level, who cares?

After you get a DH or LF, you figure out how you get the ball into their hands in the most productive situations.

I mean. The guy I was responding to claimed that Henry was Bo level. That he's never seen anything like him. And there is a guy playing right now that to me is clearly better. Henry just seems like the type of player that needs two or three uninterrupted steps, and he isn't quick enough to make moves in the back field. Without a good line, Henry would remind me of DeMarco at the Eagles. Just completely ineffective, and scat backs might not be able to move the chains like DeMarco did in Dallas, but they can escape pressure in the backfield. Attacking the line of scrimmage? Sure. He's special at that. But that doesn't make him some god of a running back the likes of which we haven't seen in 30 years. It's just an outlandish statement.
