He will run a fast 40 yard dash.

The scouts question his lateral quickness and say he struggles to "create" while running. Some also think he requires a lane to get going. Once he gets going, he's hard to catch/tackle. However, it seemed that if there was any penetration into the backfield that disrupted the play, Derrick Henry didn't have quick enough feet to get away.

I think he goes 2nd round.

Impressive. I said a couple months ago there was no way he runs a sub 4.55.

You really believe that big bitch is running in the 4.3s?

I know he is.

Bookmarked for combine. I bet you he doesn't run anything under a 4.4. Check that I'll even throw it your way. I bet he doesn't run anything under a 4.5

Clearly he's only good because Ryan Kelly won the Rimington and will be a first round pick.

Derrick Henry is a great back with a good future in the NFL.
He may not appear to look as fast as he is because he is tall and almost 250lbs running straight up as a runner.
Reminds me of a bigger version of Eric Dickerson, but has had some challenges when you make him run sideline to sideline.
I think he will be the first or second back taken in the draft IMO.

Linebackers and defensive ends in the NFL are that fast.

Another Bama bust coming up.

What's crazy to me, T.J. Yeldon will probably have the best NFL career out of Henry/Lacy all while he didn't ever look near as dominant in college.

I'm surprised at his 40 because he's never looked quite that fast in games. BUT with RBs all the running lane decisions they have to make in-game slow them down.

Good numbers tho.
