You know I love your opinions, but this is one I disagree with. Henderson has starter attributes IMO… but it is fair to question if he has starter durability.
His hands are great. He runs good RB routes. As a runner he is fairly shifty and has surprising/decent power. He has strong hands, doesn’t fumble. His protections are solid. There is a lot to like about his game.
I don’t know if I’d call it shit… but… The RB depth was a concern of mine out of camp. I like Funk, but not as a running back.
It feels like, at some point, we might need to do something here. The good news we are probably okay for now… but as teams start to feel their way options might come available.
Was Sony available? He went through a training camp & knows The Rams offense? He worked last season,but what happens to Funk & roster spots?
Agree with HENDO. He is SO UNDERRATED. What Thursday showed is what I’ve been basically saying.
1.HENDO is not an every down RB that is going to be your #1 RB,but he does everything well in all (pass,routes,blocks) phases.
He came back in The SuperBowl & helped The Rams win it all. His 3rd down catch I’ll never forget.
2. Cam Akers is afraid or doesn’t want to pass block? His efforts are what Merlin said. Dog-do. He will find his way ,but who knows after his knee injury if he ever comes back 100% from his knee injury.
—I was a Johnathan Taylor Fan & wanted to trade up for him.I think when he slipped The Rams could have traded up. Van Jefferson being hurt The Rams offense. -T. Lewis caused a fumble,but that would have been enough to have got him imo. Not going against The Rams choice.Just saying it was an option.
Williams is a smaller back,but in 2023 he replaces D. Henderson.Who know what 2022 is going to bring?
