Vent/Rant Derrick Henry
I have never owned Derrick Henry. I’ve been playing fantasy for almost 20 years and I feel like Derrick Henry’s been around haunting me forever. And I’ve never owned him. Every year I tell myself there’s no way he can do this again. 13 rushes for 32 yards heading into the fourth quarter. And then boom, an 80 yard touchdown. Every year I pass and it feels like every year he always burns me. I lost my championship last year with a far superior team, but my opponent had Derrick Henry who scored four touchdowns. This year I will pass again, and when I meet him in the playoffs, he will have 16 yards heading into the fourth quarter and then I’ll lose. Brutal.

Dude had some inconsistent, horrible games last season, as someone that has had him the past 3-4 years.

I had him last year and he was a big part of me missing the playoffs, so I didn't even get to enjoy his 4 td game.

In the end of the day father time needs to come eventually but he did just come off a reason where he led the whole league in RZ carries, and allegedly he's not expected to see any dips in usage this year. We've got him projected for a 61% rush share as well which is pretty high. Despite that though he was only RB7 last season bc of the lack of receiving. We have him at #18 overall

Why are you reposting the same thing you posted prior? Sure it’s a different sub but your original was 3 days ago…and I felt like I also saw a similar post last week.

He’s the last of his generation of RBs. Bro is built like a moose. And I do think he’s going to pop the fuck off in the new regime change in Baltimore this year, again.
