NFL Draft Preview - Derrick Henry, Alabama RB

Before Derrick Henry won the Heisman Trophy at Alabama, he was rewriting the Florida high school record books. As a senior, he rushed for 4,260 yards and 55 touchdowns on 464 carries—numbers that shattered the state rushing record previously held by NFL running back Travis Henry.

At 6-foot-3 and 247 pounds with legitimate speed, Henry's physical profile translated directly to SEC dominance. His combination of size, speed, and proven production makes him a projected early selection in the NFL Draft, likely no later than the second round.
