It's not quite as simple as "Do I want Derrick Henry at 30?" It really depends on who has gone where and who is available at the time.

Well this thread is that simple haha. Doesn't matter who is there...are you comfortable taking him at 30?

You can't convince me he is worth a first round pick. He was a monster in college because he was able to bulldoze people. Although he was in the SEC, there is still a HUGE gap between the children he played a lot in college and the linebackers that will be hitting him in the NFL. His 'game speed' will also be neutralized by quicker, more athletic defenders. I see him getting injured often and not being able to take on tacklers like in college. Do not want.

Gettleman loves big players that defy the measurements of that position. This would make our offense monstrous and our redzone offense unstoppable. I think he would pull the trigger, and we all would have to trust his judgement based on his track record. 

Simple answer: yes

man i just don't know anymore. people are pointing out so many things wrong with him. but if gettleman picks him who am i to argue?

i think henry falls into gettleman's real plan, which is to draft a cam newton for every position on offense. here are the stats:

von and cam are basically the same guy too. KB is another Cam clone. we're getting there.

    • I get it, but it's just like "dropping dimes" doesn't have a definition either but is saying the same thing. They're like what the Supreme Court said about Porn, "you know it when you see it" And I think you have to be watching with some crazy ridiculous Bryce goggles to think he was "slinging dots downfield" as the OP said.  I'm not taking anything away from Bryce for making the necessary throw in those situations and got two TDs on two 4th down plays.   But they weren't "sligning dots downfield" and they weren't "dropping dimes", they were pretty basic throws for any NFL QB, not even starting QB, just any QB.  They were 15-20 yard touch throws for the WR to run under it, with no safety over the top of them or need to let them get down in bounds.  They were in essence practice throws with no DB covering them, just in a high pressure game situation. 100% perfect throws for what was needed, which in itself is a credit to Bryce as he's struggled with that on easy throws in the past.  And hell, this literally might have been his best game of his career all things considered. But "slinging dots downfield" is just an absurd statement to say after today, sorry.
    • Idk, but I was just scrolling shorts and this video popped up calling the Tmac pass an “absolute dot” so, unless this is you, it seems like it might meet more people’s definition of “dot” than he thinks. Anybody crashing out over calling these passes “dots” really can’t be taken seriously on any Bryce Young related topic because he clearly affects their ability to think straight.
