RB Darrell Henderson, LAR (1 Viewer)

[need2know]

Rb1 on the rams for sure

 

[Stuart Ullman]

I've decided that my first groin grabbing decision of the year will be starting Darrell Henderson in FLEX/RB2 where I own him. Part of it is wanting to have somebody to watch tomorrow, but I just feel like the game script bodes well for him. As far as the reports are saying, he's healthy.

I can see him catching a decent of passes. I can see him punching in a TD. Probably not the smartest thing in the world, but hey, he's a starting RB in a very good offense that's playing at home. They should be able to control tempo and move the chains. I think he'll have plenty of opportunity. Try to steal a sneaky 13 - 15 points. I think his floor is around 6 - 7 which would be annoying, but Rb1 on the Rams for sure.

Rb1 on the rams for sure

Yessir, brother. I started him in 5-6 leagues. He's got 8 points with a quarter to go and this was a tuff matchup.


Happy with him. He balled out for me last year. Great RB3/FLEX.

Am I missing something or did you write this during the late 3rd Q of the game?

Prob gonna start him as my rb2 moving forward. Went everything heavy except rb

I had it written up last night but had cold feet. Then I wanted to respond to need2know and it was quicker to post what I had written than backspace it.

Plus, once a few days go by nobody will know the difference! It's not like anybody would have listened to me anyway.


Can't help people who started a RB Week 1 who averaged less than 3 YPC off a torn achilles last season.

Exactly. If you're stuffed at WR/TE Hendo is a steal in this offense. I just love that he's the de facto pass catching back.

Hell, he might catch a pair on this drive.

 

[Tanner9919]

been beating his drum for a while now. Cam Akers is not NFL ready, he may never be. DH is in the top 10% in pass protection. he's a good receiver, great between the tackles runner. you start him next week ( they play falcons, right?)

it's not like we weren't shouting his name from the mountain tops. RIP Cam Akers.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I’m not sure how many conclusions I’d draw from a 1 game sample size.

I imagine Akers will be more involved in games they’re not down multiple TDs.

 

[travdogg]

Fun fact, Darrell Henderson just saw the highest percentage of RB snaps in his career. For one week at least, Cam Akers was a much smaller threat than Sony Michel was a year ago.

 

[Down Under]

I drafted Henderson in as many late drafts as possible given reports on Akers recovery. I couldn't believe people were still drafting Akers in the 3rd round (even the Draft Dominator had him in there somewhere relatively). Meanwhile Henderson was available in the 9th-10th rounds.

I'm not crowing that this was the best pick ever, it's just that all the signs were there for Akers. Also, I do expect Akers to contribute more as time goes on, so Henderson may not have much use to me in the second half of the year.

Yea I saw him sitting way higher in the draft dominator than I was comfortable with, but luckily someone in my league grabbed him before he was even suggested to me by the app. He is a player I wanted no part of.

I promise I won’t tell anyone that you wrote up a post at the end of the 3Q that was to trick people into thinking you knew what was going to happen before the game, I’ll even add in some commentary like “Wow, great call on your part - I can’t believe your were omnipotent enough to know Henderson was the starting RB!!!. Once again great call and you did it the day before the game (not at the start of 4Q) Amazing job!!!

 

[Banger]

Why? Henderson started and played nearly the entire game regardless of score. I’m not saying Akers might not gain more of a role but there was nothing to indicate from that game that Akers could/should get more workload. Based on his 3 carries for 0 yards he may get less.

What has Akers shown to indicate he should get a bigger role? He was bad in the playoffs/super bowl and you heard nothing from the preseason and I don’t believe he played in any games. Everyone elevated Akers to be the starter based on assumptions and coach speak. What matters is what is done on the field

 

[BobbyLayne]

one game probably isn't a trend

Akers didn't look great when he returned last year

he didn't have the confidence of his HC last night and got swallowed alive the three times they handed it to him

the Rams running back situation will likely remain fluid, decent chance Akers will receive 10+ touches a game later this year

but Akers has not given his owners much reason to be hopeful so far

***************

Nice production for Henderson, 18 touches for 75 yards against a great defense is pretty good actually

the knock since he came out of Memphis is he can't shoulder the load

looks like McVey doesn't have a choice right now - Henderson will see a lot of matchups that are easier than the Bills, and the OL can't possibly be that bad (right??)

 

[DJ Scoob]

It has got to be Darrell Henderson as the #1 Rams RB choice at this time. He should be a confident #2 RB or Flex option at this time until Cam Akers starts to see his productions increase and improve.

 

[steelcityman]

Akers looked pedestrian. Nothing special. And to think I was willing to give up a decent amount to get him(already have Henderson). So far, what a relief! Thanks other team owner for telling me I was stupid to think Akers wasnt the alpha RB1. Just seems like a messy RB situation all year long there.

 

[cockroach]

I'd be looking to sell to the Akers owner or another RB needy team before he hits the injury report.

 

[[icon]]

Akers almost certainly WILL NOT pay off at ADP this year.

Henderson almost certainly WILL pay off at ADP this year

Nothing. How about you, still upset your buddy won't accept your offers?

A lot of week 1 overreactions to a guy who just averaged 3.6/carry.

Because it is 1 game, and a game in which the script favored the receiving back.

And reportedly Akers was dealing with some injury leading up to it.

Presumably that soft tissue injury will get better, and he’ll be used more.

So making sweeping generalizations based on this one game seems silly.

I have neither of these guys. It’s just an observation. I know Henderson owners are excited. I would temper that.

As someone who has Akers only in dynasty and hendo only in some redraft leagues, I agree with this take. My level of panic on Akers is much higher than my level of excitement for Henderson. I'm hoping some Akers owners are still interested in chasing after the Rams starting RB, and I will be trying to sell.

they both had soft tissue injuries and returned to practice the same day. I'm not making sweeping generalizations or conclusions. these situations are fluid and I'm making observations on the data that I have. What I observed from Akers during the playoffs, he didn't play in the preseason to see if he improved, I didn't hear positive news about him during the preseason and the few snaps he got last night he didn't do anything with. The game script favored Henderson in the 4th quarter but Henderson was getting all the first half snaps when the game was 10-10 at halftime.

I am not saying that things can't change or that Henderson will be a league winner but I avoided Akers for the reasons above and nothing I've seen has led me to alter my thinking.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

The game was close in the first half and even during most of Q3 and Akers had 3 carries.

I don’t think Akers is healthy right now.

Whatever injuries they were each dealing with in camp, Akers clearly wasn’t recovered from them.

Not defending the dude. I just wouldn’t put as much stock into the Rams run game plans as some in here are based on a 1-game sample size.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Kyren Williams, high ankle sprain, out up to 6 weeks.

Just saw that. I suspect he was supposed to have a larger role before that happened.

Yeah obviously something was up, but I was only responding specifically to the game flow comment. That was not the reason. The game was 17-10 heading into the 4th Q.

 

[massraider]

Kyren Williams, high ankle sprain, out up to 6 weeks.

That pretty much cooks his season, far as I'm concerned.

For real, now is the time to trade Henderson

 

[Chaka]

Kyren Williams, high ankle sprain, out up to 6 weeks.

For Henderson & Akers owners that is the most interesting news that came out of last night.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

1000%

He’ll never hold up to 18 touches a game.

 

[efactor]

I’m not sure how many conclusions I’d draw from a 1 game sample size.

I imagine Akers will be more involved in games they’re not down multiple TDs.

Well, yeah, he will probably get more than 3 carries most games, but he won't be FF viable anytime soon. He was horrible when he came back last year, and obviously is way behind Henderson in the pecking order at this point. McVay is the modern day version of Pete Carroll as far as "everything is wonderful" spins. Seems to not be the case with Akers.

 

[Chaka]

For real, now is the time to trade Henderson

I agree, but it's week 1 and he's nice depth on many rosters at a position with high attrition.

I understand that he has durability concerns but I'm not sure what anyone would give for him that would be an improvement over having the lead back on the Rams for 10-15 games.

Last week of camp, both Henderson & Akers were reportedly dealing with “soft tissue” Injuries. I recall McVay saying Akers was coming along slower than Hendo.

I agree Akers looked poor last year when he came back. I agree Henderson looked decent last night.

But I have significant doubts about Hendo’s workload & ability to stay healthy. And that once Akers can play more, I believe he will - to whatever effect.

I’m glad I didn’t buy on Akers in any format, but at some point he will get more touches. Obviously we agree on that last point.

 

[Banger]

With Akers performance and Williams getting hurt you really couldn't hope for a much better outcome to last night for Henderson owners. Pretty much the best case scenario.

Except that’s assuming his workload remains constant as “the lead back on the rams for 10-15 games” - it may not, and he may not.

This is a dude who lost his job to Sony Michel last year.

I’m just sayin - if I had Henderson I’d be selling him for other team needs or future picks.

Strictly talking dynasty, it is all I play:
I might reach out to the Akers owner, especially if he was counting on him. You may have to drive over to his house, because his phone is off and the blinds are drawn, but he might be willing to "lock up" the Rams backfield, and pay for it.

OK, but what makes you think Henderson is more of an injury risk than Akers?

I never understood the Akers hype. He wasn't outstanding in 2020. Virtually the same stats as Henderson for the year but was going late first to mid 2nd in early FF drafts last year before he got hurt.

I have stayed far away from Akers in all drafts this year. But then, I'm heavily invested in Robinson, so WTF do I know?

 

[JohnnyU]

I started Gainwell over Henderson because I wasn't expecting anything. I guess he can be my RB2 next week. I'm thin at RB in a 14 team DEVY, so anything I can get from Henderson is a bonus IMO.

I don’t. It was a mutually exclusive comment.

I’ve rostered Hendo in the past, including last year.

Dude gets hurt a lot.

Not compared to Akers. Compared to all running backs. He is unlikely to hold up to a big workload.

I never understood the Akers hype. He wasn't outstanding in 2020. Virtually the same stats as Henderson for the year but was going late first to mid 2nd in early FF drafts last year before he got hurt.

I didn’t hype Akers. I wouldn’t draft him with your team. lol

Even Kupp?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Even Kupp?

Picked JJ over him in 2 leagues.

Age, regression, injury risk based on career, and at the time Stafford’s elbow are all concerns for me.

After 1 game it looks like a bad call. But then, we haven’t seen JJ’s game yet. If Kupp blows away JJ’s numbers this year, I’m still ok with making a call for a younger player who I believe will be ascending.

 

[imafallguy]

I think they bring in another RB. I’d love for them to trade for Mattison.

I took Jefferson over him in a couple leagues too.

But it was honestly a case of I was fine with either of them. Mostly because being a 49er fan, I preferred to root for the non Ram

I actually typed that and deleted it.

I have drafted Gurley in the past, and yeah - it was an icky, unnatural feeling to enjoy their production.

It was probably the least of the factors, but it wasn’t a non-factor.
