    No, he is not. He has no lateral quickness. He will be solid, but he will never be Gurley. Gurley is a monster.

    I also like Henry. I don't love him, and there was a time when I was ready to cut our losses with him, but it's tough to dismiss him after that KC game and all of those late game performances. He clearly has long speed and guys just don't want to hit him in late game situations. People over think the boom or bust aspect of his performances this year. He only struggled as much as the entire offense did.

    Praising Gurley while knocking Henry is ridiculous. Gurley had a very good rookie season, but defenses figured out how to stop him in that offense, and did just that in 2016. He needs a plan and sufficient blocking as well. That's not exclusive to Henry.

    Henry has the goods, and he has proven it. When we aren’t predictable, he balls out. He has also stayed pretty healthy as well. Pounder, shifter, receiving back, I don’t care...He needs a solid #2 with him. I do think this new scheme will help him tremendously. He isn’t a bruiser style back, like Mularkey treated him at times.

    Henry is a RB2.

    He needs the help. Someone to get a D tired so he can be effective.

    If we roll with him as the feature back- fans here will be wanting him cut by week 8 for not producing.

    Who’s the best back then with regards to fitting into our new zone scheme?

    I am amazed at how many don't see what a great RB Henry can and will be.

    I think Henry is really going to flourish in this new offense.

    With that said, we should still draft a John Kelly, Nyheim Hines or Mark Walton

    It's hard for me to take this thread seriously when you are not using the 1981 Kraken
