Priests first season that he got a carry he had 1000 yards
So outside of Lynch, who we all know was constantly losing touches to Fast Freddy his entire time in Buffalo and then they shipped him out, then and only then did he become Beast Mode.. They're exactly the same situations..first time they really got a real shot..they produced. I'm not sure how that's any different than Henry, he didn't get a real shot till at minimum midway through the season. Outside of Houston last year, and 2 games vs Jax, two of the stoutest D's in the league (Zeke and Gurley barely got 100 yards on 20+ carries against those Jag D's), every time, in his whole career, including those first two years, that he has received more than 17 carries..he's produced, and produced well. Just a matter of giving the guy the ball, and sticking with it. I don't call 5-10 carries most games, a real shot, especially not for a back built to pound on people.
Fair enough.
Think the team will try to ride Henry, but he is so game script vulnerable that he's just not going to be one of the better Rbs in the league. Should be obvious that backs that can both run and catch are the ones you want to own. Henry is the kind you love as a bench guy, because if game script goes right he could blow up. If game script goes wrong and you have him in your starting lineup, you'll be real depressed. Good enough for depth, but you sure as heck don't want him to be a regular starter if you want to compete.
That actually is another great one.
You get cake for that post.
Ppl also say history tends to repeat itself.
All the big gambling sites are off limits. I can do leagues that are private and use a independent pay site like league safe. Fantrax treasury I'm good to go on. Draft king, Fan duel forget about it. No can do. Sucks, but maybe it's saving me a ton of money IDK.
Breaking a rule here, but going to add this. The one and only thing I like about Washington State politics is there is no state tax, not for lack of them trying to pass a state tax, keeps coming up. In the meantime they practically tax you for breathing.All the big gambling sites are off limits. I can do leagues that are private and use a independent pay site like league safe.

I would agree with that as well. But, could still rush for a boatload of yards, even without the greatness.
Lord I hope so. I would love for the days of Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Thurman Thomas, Kevin Mack and Byner, Betti's, Iron Head Heyward, Okoye, ...when RB's were RB's. If they were good at other stuff, great, if not? They still got the ball 20+ times a game and teams didn't screw around with "3rd down backs" or "committees" or specialty "roles". And when if a QB threw for 3750 yds and 30 TDs, it was because they were that damned good, not because they chucked it 40 times a game every week.
Depending on game script though. I'd rather not gamble on that myself if a safer alternative is possible. Course at some point in the draft I'd be willing to take the plunge, most likely he's be long gone by then. Be A OK with me if that's the case. Let others take the gamble with a high pick based on a short spree of success.
