Since 2000, Henry is one of five RBs in Year 10 to score 15+ PPR PPG, and the first since 2010! Zero of those four did it the next season. We haven't had a 15+ PPG scoring RB in Year 11 this century.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Henry's age and historical precedent suggest regression risk despite elite talent.

Ranked 17th overall with 4/5 risk, 3/5 reward. Age is the main issue; some offensive line concerns and another first-time play-caller add risk. Since 2000, Henry is one of five RBs in Year 10 to score 15+ PPR PPG, and the first since 2010; zero of those four did it the next season. No 15+ PPG scoring RB in Year 11 this century; closest was Marshall Faulk at 13 PPG.
