remember this?

Alabama has zero o-line 1st round draft picks. Ryan Kelly is probably a 2nd round center. Pump the breaks on the greatness of the Alabama O-line. Henry trucked Clemson for 3TD's at 160 yards on the ground, just like he did every other team. Crediting Alabama's oline that has zero Elite talent going into the NFL draft is pure comedy. It was Henry, not the O-line, that steamrolled defenders.

That's OK--I do. Kelly and Dominick Jackson are the only Bama O-linemen eligible for this year's draft--Kelly went in Round 1, Jackson will be drafted tonight. The rest are underclassmen. Cam Robinson was first team all-SEC as a sophomore. He will be a first rounder, likely even a top 5 pick, next year. As a matter of fact, every starter on that 2015 line will play in the NFL.

You accuse other posters of "not knowing anything about football". Then you post stuff like that, and like this:

Henry averaged 102.8 yards per game AFTER contact for the entire season, which represents 70 percent of his rushing yards. Meaning his o-line did shit for his dominance.

You extrapolate Henry's YAC as an indictment of his O line, as though the contact is all at the line of scrimmage between the tackles as opposed to at the second level or in the secondary, where the O line doesn't operate. Any idiot knows that RBs and QBs, and a team's offense as a whole, is only as good as the O-line, yet you take the absurd position that a guy who ran for 150 YPG and nearly 6 YPC in 2015, against the absolute best competition, did it all by himself. You are one of the least knowledgeable, stat-regurgitating/misinterpreting, know-nothings in the history of this message board, which is a huge accomplishment. Congratulations to you.

By the way--Henry didn't get drafted yesterday, and probably won;t get drafted until the middle of the 2nd round tonight. Using your ridiculous metrics of convenience, that means he isn't "elite", doesn't it?

he had more TDs than Zeke Elliott, so he must have been better than Zeke, right?
 
what were his combine numbers

everybody (steel) knows that's what matters

except when they don't because he has to backpedal at that particular moment

put henry behind, say, PSU's 2014 or 2015 offensive line vs SEC defenses and see him get all his yards after contact because he'd be getting hit behind the line on all his runs

-Ryan Kelley made it at 18th. I thought he was 2nd round. Oh Well.

-LeSean McCoy went 2nd round too. Major bonehead move by every other team in the 1st round, fastest player ever to 7000 yards. I hope the Steelers get Henry, that would be awesome.

I'll say this about both of you, I am happy I can read what both of you post on the Lair on CFB. Such details and views with great back up facts and thoughts is a delight and pleasure to read.

It is my Dream to find such discussions and both of you as well many others in addition to some Michigan, MSU, Penn State, WVU and Bama Posters in particular that makes the Lair the Best Place to Share, Learn, Debate, and enjoy CFB.

I say this in complete honesty and sincerity without reservation!
