Just sharing some NFL RB speed talk, maybe turn ya on to something ya didn't know, ok with you?

Henry has a slow high school track time. It’s interesting because his combine time while still not elite, is much better than what his high school times would have predicted.
It shows that he likely had poor coaching in high school or really transformed his body at Bama.
He’s never going to be one of the fastest players. But he is 30-40 pounds bigger than some of his fellow backs, one of the toughest RBs out there, and a far more intuitive runner than the other big backs.
Take Fournette, who is very good and a top bigger back and a better comparison than Trent Richardson. Fournette is faster. However Henry is larger, has much better vision and has shown he can take more hits than damn near anyone.

Speed is like the third best attribute of Henry.

100 meters and 100 yard times
So you included both in the same list without identifying which times are which?
Nicely done

Without the speed he's just another Ironhead Heyward.

So you had to be told which was which, really?
You really don't know the difference, wow!

Avante,
Don’t get defensive. Just admit you can or can’t do it.

You do know that 100 meters is a different length than 100 yards right? Right?
