Florida was his best game against a ranked team. He averaged 6.2 YPC and Lacy averaged 6.4 YPC (only 5 carries though).
His next two best games against ranked teams were:
- Penn State - 22/144 (6.5)/1 with 4/46/0 receiving.
- Arkansas - 17/126 (7.3)/0 with 3/85/1 receiving.

Miles ahead. Hell, UGA might have 3 RBs better than anything that came out last year.

Henry is a Freak of Nature! I'm already stock piling picks so I can be in position to Draft him in my Dynasty. I'm not sure what to say when I watch him. I feel like my eyes are deceiving me and I have to press rewind to make sure I saw what I thought I saw. I grabbed Gurley this past weekend, I will get Henry but I must make my moves now before the word gets out and his value gets out of control.

I can't believe Henry when I watch him. His birthday is Jan 4 1994, correct? When is he eligible?

Hard to trust Alabama running backs when transitioning to the NFL as of late.

In devy leagues, what is Gurley worth straight up in terms of current players?

I don't always play in devy leagues, but when I do, I sell Gurley for McCoy every time.

If I had Eddie Lacy or Doug Martin, I'd go after Gurley and try to get some other pieces thrown in.
If I had Gurley, I'm not selling. All depends on how your leaguemates value Devy players.
Gurley has the talent to be the best fantasy RB. Hopefully, he gets into a great offense.
Charles turns 28 in December. It's a different story if he was 25.
Anyone might not translate, nobody is safe. But 225+ rbs with power, hands, cutting ability, speed, and return kickoffs are extremely rare.

It depends on your team, but yes I would in certain situations. I've got Charles in a devy league right now and I don't have Gurley. My team finished 2nd in that league last year and is competitive, should be in the running to make the playoffs again this year. So in that case I wouldn't make the trade for Gurley. If my team was relatively weak outside of Charles and I didn't think I was going to be super competitive this year than yes, absolutely I make that trade.

Speed? Not so sure on that one. He gets caught a lot, albeit after making a couple of dudes look silly.

The dude looks amazing, but the price paid to get him is getting out of hand. Everyone knows about him and envision him on their squad in 2015. This is going to be interesting to watch play out. I'm going to focus my attention on other prospects because I have a distinct feeling I will not be willing to pay the price it takes to get that #1 pick.
This is all conjecture though, if I acquire the #1 because my squad performed the worst, then so be it.

Yeah but there's something different about Henry when he plays vs the other backs and I think it's his quickness and speed for someone his size. He just lokks faster than everyone else on the field. You couldn't say the same about Ingram or Trent. Watch him play this weekend and you'll see what I'm talking about.
This is a Gurley thread so I don't want to hijack and turn this into a Alabama thread....so back to our regularly scheduled program.

Bumping this after yesterday's game. This dude is a beast. Gotta go top 10 if not top 5. He's the most dominant college RB I've seen since AP.

If Georgia had kept playing him last week and this week, he'd be leading the ncaa in rushing.Other running backs are only ahead of him because they are getting 25-30 touches a game, but I do like the fact that they are using him as much. Don't need to over use him, keep him fresh and MN of need for an injury.

When I'm watching Georgia games he pops off the field the same way AJ did. Just on a different level physically than everyone else.

Would have been nice if they gave him at least 2 more carries vs. USC. They'd likely be undefeated still if so. By and large, I agree. UGA has so many talented backs there is little reason to push touches on Gurley. It was clear in that Tenn game that when it was critical for them to move the ball they feed him the ball. Everyone in the stadium knew he was getting it and he still managed to churn out yds. His yards after contact is insane this year. Not sure I've seen a guy so regularly run thru to first or even second tackles in my life.

Too late, at minimum you'll have to pay a arm and a leg for him and as the season goes along more body parts will be required to acquire him.

It's probably something minimal that will have no impact on his actual draft stock.

Wtf. NCAA rules are so dumb. Now we could be robbed of this kids great season....but NFL teams will be glad for the saved wear and tear on him.
