Don't tell anybody but he'll be the best pro running back of the Saban era ....can't miss for sure. Saban has used him like a rented mule but he's so big it may not matter ...who knows how long he holds up...he doesn't get tired that's what's most impressive to me a back his size should be huffing and puffing after 30 carries ...makes me think he's on something to be honest but I give him the benefit of the doubt.

Dane you played ball I've been around guys on peds since I was 15 (mma) you think Henry is clean year round? That's a big man to never get tired I've never seen that kid tap his helmet to get a breather....never remember seeing him hands on hips or gassed even after long runs.

I am an Alabama fan and I don't think he will translate to the pros that well.

They showed a clip he was lean there like he grew into that body ,...he's a freak if that's natural endurance then that's a hell of a gift for a man that size.

Why? He's almost impossible to knock backwards I think he's going to be big time. What do you see?

A guy who takes a second to get going and doesn't cut that great. Now when he gets going he is hard to bring down and has surprising speed. Very easy to tackle at the LOS before he gets going. That is basically going to be his life in the NFL.

I give you that if you can get to his legs before he gets a head of steam going he is surprisingly easy to tackle for a dude that size so I see what you're talking about. Good point zack

I would bet he is. Some of these guys are just freaks of nature. Alabama rbs don't hold up well in the pros and he won't either

Ingram and Lacy have both done decent in the Pros, both have been to the Pro Bowl. I think Henry's game translates the worse to the NFL.

Ingram is by far there best of the bunch which is m sad. They all can just run in a straight line. Lacys career took a hit this season

He's not an elite pro back though, Fournette will be the one who shines if he can stay healthy. Bama always has good backs, but they are always made to look much better because they almost always have a really good o-line. Henry is no exception.

He's a beast I'd be surprised if he was bust ...I can't wait to see what team lands him. Jacobs was slow as hell only thing they have in common is they are big backs ....Jacobs doesn't have half the explosiveness Henry has.
