-lacks lateral quickness
- he's not Trent Richardson bad but doesn't have great vision, he's not a natural rb
-to be his size he's kinda soft
- one of the worst pass protecting rbs I've ever seen in film. They either bring in Drake or run Henry out in the flat


I've watched just about all his film and played against him twice be will fill a specific role but won't be a star. Would be a good mid found pick with ba team that has a great o line where he can wear u down over the game

Prediction: cowboys 3rd round

His vision appears to be excellent. Hits the holes running downhill.

I have no idea what this means.

No he isn't.

This seems to be an area for improvement coming into this year that he apparently got better in. People are also underrating his vision in this thread. We don't know a lot about him catching out of the backfield I guess. I think it's dumb he won the Heisman but I think he has an alright career in the NFL.

You didn't watch much film of Bama and Henry this year then. Henry destroys blitzing lb's in pass protection

His vision is fine.

How so? I can't recall ever once seeing Henry shaken up, and he rarely goes backwards.
