FalconsIn2012 35,705 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Edit: Not saying he is D Henry. Just looks great Anyone have some info on this beast. First time I’ve watched him and he is absolutely sensational. His last 25 rushes have gone for 330 yards. He is big and fast. On ESPN right now against Oregon if you want to take a peek With Gurley out with a knee injury it seems likely we draft a RB Faithful Falcon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HouseofEuphoria 3,696 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) 5'10"? He's no Henry. 6'3' 240? Edited November 28, 2020 by HouseofEuphoria Knight of God and Francis York Morgan 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dem Birds 10,769 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 You show me him throwing a grown man on his way to a 90 yard touchdown run and I'll see some Derrick Henry. Seems like he's got good vision and patience but that alone does not a Derrick Henry make. AUTiger7222, HouseofEuphoria, Francis York Morgan and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JD dirtybird21 22,829 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Oregon State is my college team. They suck every year. Like they should be division 2. Jefferson is alright. He’s no Henry. Come on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AUTiger7222 7,658 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 He's nowhere near as big as Derrick Henry. But he **** sure looked good today. Reminded me of Maurice Jones-Drew. But I'm not gonna crown the guy off one game. FalconsIn2012 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FalconsIn2012 35,705 Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 In terms of who is like Henry physically, the only guy I can think of is another Tide RB. Here he is at 16 years old...lol. Bo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

From just a physical standpoint, he is the same density as Bo Jackson and has similar long speed (Bo ran 10.44 100 meters and Jefferson ran 10.8 in high school) Not saying he is Bo by any means. Just saying similar size, similar long speed. Bo has unique short speed few can match Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Macintez 1,889 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I’ve been watching football for a lonnngggg time. You don’t just “find” a Derrick Henry... It may be an entire generation before we find another like him. Dude probably went most of his adult life with coaches trying to get him to switch positions. It didn’t work on Henry but it has on countless others. Brandon Jacobs is the last back, prior to Henry, that I remember coming in at a very uncommon RB size. It doesn’t happen often my friend. We’d be better off finding another AP or Beastmode... AUTiger7222, Vandy and Knight of God 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
