Derrick Henry

Almost everything about Henry is implausible, and while other running backs might have been subjected to rules of physical decline by now, Henry showed no signs of slowing down even after turning 30 last year. Indeed, Henry's 2024 season was the most explosive yet in his Hall of Fame career, featuring career highs for carries of 20-plus yards (19) and 40-plus yards (five). With Lamar Jackson serving as a lightning rod on the edge, defenses found themselves spread too thin to account for Henry as an inside runner. When defenses sold out to slow the resulting damage from Henry, they found themselves lacking personnel to deal with the contain-breaking threat posed by Jackson. Perhaps defenses come up with some kind of solution, but it generally appears to be an issue of insufficient resources - namely, it may require more than 11 defenders to control the space that Jackson and Henry combine to threaten before any given snap. As always, the main limitation with Henry is that he won't play much in passing situations and won't catch many passes relative to the other running backs taken early in fantasy drafts.
