Can we give a little love to DH? He's going into his 4th season with the Rams. His first was spent uneventfully behind a less than stellar Todd Gurley. His last two years, 287 carries, 1312 yards, 4.6 avg, 10 TDs and another 4 TDs receiving. Sure, he's missed 6 games but he'd been productive. They drafted Cam Akers to unseat him and Kyren Williams to replace him. He's in a contract year and I hope he has a great season. If they resign him terrific (doubtful unless really cheap). If he goes via UFA, it's a comp pick. A good one if he has a good year and gets a good offer elsewhere.

There is a reason the Rams are looking for more. Injuries haven't been his friend either.
Whatever is best for our team. He definitely helped us get through the Akers Achilles. Ringy dingy.

I’m a huge DH fan but he is what he is. Ever time he touches the ball I cringe. I use to do that with Wendell Tyler and fumbles but with Henderson it is injuries. He will end up elsewhere and either be healthy and an above average player for someone else, or be out of the league or in the margins in the next couple of years. The only way he stays is him to stay healthy and produce and become the strong #2 behind Akers. Just not seeing it right now but hope I’m wrong

DH is only slightly less fragile than China doll Tutu. Pretty unreliable

That's the NFL in general now. Draft the RB. Draft another one next year. And another one the following year. You could add Henderson's contract, Akers contract and Williams contract, throw in Michel and Funk and you still aren't near Gurley territory. Of course none of those guys are as talented as Gurley.....

Hendo had some big catches in the SB when we needed them...He was a really good receiver out of the backfield all year.

I do like that part of his game.

Yeah that one down the left sideline was really sweet, and big...

Hendo allegedly has breakaway speed, I don’t think it was on display very often. Hopefully he puts out some good tape this year for his next team.

Henderson has more than done his job as a 3rd round pick. I think we were hoping for more. He is what he is. A nice piece of the offense but far from a critical piece. I think Kyren Williams will be his replacement when he leaves in free agency. Hopefully this year is his best and he helps us win another championship. And gets us a better comp pick in the process.
