    henry is like Wilder. He could be a good RB or a 10 pick on defense. We will see what henry chooses to do. Henry could be a BEAST rush end in a 3-4

    Seriously? Go watch Wilder's film as a RB in high school and then watch Henry's. The measurables are similar but the ability is not.

    What defensive film have you seen of Henry that "wows" you? I saw plenty from Wilder.

    +1, I finally met a FSU fan that thinks Widler Jr. is just a average back but a freak on defense. I don't know if FSU fans are in denial but they all say Wilder is a stud RB.

    No. They don't "all" say that.

    Exactly. Everyone saying "He would be a great mismatch as H back and create problems" obviously hasen't seen him catch. I am not joking when I say he can't catch, he literally can't catch. I don't know if it's something you can teach him down the road, but right now it's either a little above average RB or project on defense.

    From Barton S...

    From seeing him in person, I'd call Henry a capable pass catcher but he's not the most natural guy. Wouldn't say he has "soft" hands. But he's athletic enough to where an H-Back or TE position would still be a very real possibility.
