Dynasty & Redraft: RB Derrick Henry, Titans

[Faust 5,819]

Derrick Henry puts on a show with insane workout

[djjosee 79]

With the departure of J Smith and Davis, you think there's a chance of getting Henry more involved in the passing game?

Derrick Henry has the most ridiculous statistic in the NFL today

That is absolutely absurd.

I don't think there's been a back to compare to Henry overall so to suddenly compare him to Ricky or Jamal is a stretch.

I confidently predict he's an old TD vulture.

When is he old? That's a gut call and to each their own. Trade him for enough that your return can cover you being way wrong but...it's gotta be a gut call.

Gurley and Gordon are quickly extra. RBs success is short lived, no doubt.

I'd give him 1500 in 2021 and 1200 in 2022 if you're looking for a prediction. The Titans line is too stout for their to be too much of a decline. Most telling for me has been since Lewan, they've averaged around EIGHT yards per carry around the corner. 

How can Henry not have success with that stellar lead block? Conversely, Lewan is coming back from injury and....maybe he'll slow down and Henry will. I think there's still time to ride this train but Lewan is also on a best ever type ride right now so watch him too to hedge your bets.

Murray led the NFL in rushing, Henry 2 or 3 times. What was a bad year? 1400 yards? Lewan has led the way as well as any lineman and could possibly enter a hallowed ground of sorts and be a 'best ever' type some day. Tackles are so talented nowadays, it seems like they gotta play ten years to even be considered best ever conversation. He's on the path...

He’s one of those guys you ride until the wheels fall off if you’re a contender.  I think he could be one those RBs that is great when he is 30.

Right now, what is Henry's value in dynasty?  I'm trying to work out a deal involving him and have no feel.

This was a trade made in my 1 dynasty league late in the 2020 season

 

Nantucket gave up Drake, Kenyan ARI RB; Kirk, Christian ARI WR; Thomas, Michael NOS WR; Higbee, Tyler LAR TE; Year 2021 Round 1 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2021 Round 4 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2021 Round 5 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2021 Round 6 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2021 Round 7 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2022 Round 1 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2022 Round 4 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2022 Round 5 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2022 Round 6 Draft Pick from Nantucket; Year 2022 Round 7 Draft Pick from Nantucket

Montana gave up Henry, Derrick TEN RB; Peoples-Jones, Donovan CLE WR; Year 2021 Round 4 Draft Pick from Montana; Year 2022 Round 4 Draft Pick from Montana

Yeah. Something like that. Two tears in a bucket... 

I have really nothing to add about Derrick Henry. That's beyond my pay grade. Depends on your roster. Anything after the 1.03 this year is suspect, in my opinion. Getting two mid-to-late round firsts doesn't sound like enough unless you're in a rebuild. I'd try and get younger, but who's paying premium prices for a twenty-seven year-old? Not many. Best to ride him out. Thankfully, the champion in our league has both he and Kamara (I say "thankfully" quite ruefully) and is going to easily make another run this year, so that question is out the window in the league I'm currently in.

I agree, ride him out if you're a contender.  Unless you get a ridiculous offer.
