2. Darrell Henderson

You do not just average over eight yards per carry in your college career on accident. Darrell Henderson is a bit undersized, but this is player extremely explosive with traits that should translate to the next level.

What stands out from his measurables are that despite his size, he has great strength and he has breakaway speed. On video, his two best traits are his foot quickness and elsuiveness. Henderson ranked 2nd in elusive rate and first in breakaway runs according to Pro Football Focus.

Henderson caught 63 balls in his college career without single drop. He brings vision between the tackles breakaway speed and pass catching ability. It would be a pleasant surprise to see Darrell Henderson at 87.
