Foxboro, Massachusetts– Patriot rookie Treveyon Henderson doesn't have the easiest day in this week's joint practice with the commander.
His alternate quarterback Josh Dobbs' pass over his head through the check-in site. As he crossed the middle of the field, Dobbs jumped out of his hands and chest again. In the 7-on-7 game, Henderson took a step on the coverage of the wheel route, tapping quarterback Drake Maye tossed a dime to the rear right tower, and Henderson tracked it perfectly on his shoulder…and then put it down.
And, if not bad enough, Henderson later found himself at the bottom of a brawl between the two teams as Henderson tricked an unnamed commander defender (not Von Miller).
Fortunately, Henderson did a lot of good things, too. Really great. What he does at Ohio State and what the Patriots really need to help.
He is much better at speed than any other Patriot, especially when it comes to acceleration after running on the edge or catching the ball. His layoffs have been shown in practice against his own team, and are evident to Washington. His route was good, open on an in-field racing route in the red area 7-on-7 pair training, with a touchdown from Maye. His hands obviously could have been better, but the camp buzz was the fact that Henderson was able to contribute to the passing game, so a few drops shouldn't be a major issue.
“He seems to be a quick learner and he rarely makes the same mistake if protection occurs in protection,” Flaber told Henderson. “…When he doesn’t have the ball in his hand, you see him playing hard and he’s able to do something in the running game and quickly learn to be able to move him in different positions on the offense.”
It all shows that Henderson is working to help the Patriots this season due to his speed, hand, agility and avid pass gestures, which will put him on the field instead of a typical rookie run.
What I worry is that he won't be from New England The only one Run back. It was undoubtedly the biggest thing that made him one of the most popular rookies in the fantasy draft.
Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson Both Spin with Henderson, not just with beginners. These three defenders also attacked the commander with the second string. When Gibson looked like his old self, Stevenson actually ran hard, doing a lot of running between tackles, holding the ball high like a run, and blinking the combination of power and speed over multiple runs.
“I think we can all do it all,” Gibson smiled after practicing. “We can all run the ball, we can all catch, we can all pass protection. We're hardly doing different things, but (our) backcourt can do it all.”
Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has very consistent track record using multiple RBs. In his 17 full seasons as PlayCaller, only three times, averaged more than 20 runs per game, while the defender with only 10 times averaged over 15. The production of fantasy points is almost a mirror image: five runs over 17 years have averaged at least 15 PPR points, while the defender with only 10 times scored an average of more than 13 PPR points.
That's a big problem. And more.
New England has an offensive line, with two rookies on the left, one veteran center, last year's game declined and needed a rebound season. In some dramas, they seem to be overwhelmed by Washington. The depth behind the entire offensive line has not been confirmed, so it is worrying. This could hurt all the defenders involved.
That's OK, Henderson's body (5-foot-10-foot-202 pounds) defender almost never gets a lot of touch on average under McDaniels. Moreno of knowledge can be said to be the only exception, even he Henderson weighs nearly 20 pounds. This may be a problem with the carriers within the 5-yard line. Henderson has had seven such wins in the past three years at Ohio State.
That's OK, Maye is known for her ridiculous athleticism and mobility. During a joint exercise against the commander, his legs made a brief touchdown. This kind of thing will definitely happen in the season.
There is nothing from joint practice, and nothing in McDaniels' history as a dramatist, which suggests that Henderson will overcome all these things. Yes, Stevenson could escape from work, but he has had this problem for years and last June he received a considerable contract extension. Even if that happens, Gibson may be the one who shares with Henderson.
There is no doubt that Henderson will perform well this year in the Patriots’ first week. yes quantity They should be in the mind of potential fantasy drafters.
Currently, anyone who gets Henderson at the Red Redraft League round 5 average draft position takes some risks. But that's where you should expect him to go – multiple people in every draft will value him because of his traits without considering any flaws, even if many of them are team-related. You can justify Henderson in the sixth round, hoping to run with a third run.
This story is different in the dynasty alliance. A bit of a long-term argument for Henderson is that he becomes the next Shane Vereen, James White, or Dion Lewis. These guys are excellent in McDaniels' offense, but each has only more than 14 PPR points once in a season, thanks to their ridiculous 7-plus goals per game in the Golden Age. All three games have been played in the league for many years. If that's the expected reward, it's hard to take Henderson in the rookie draft, although I think it would be much easier if you want him to have seven goals a week.
If you think Henderson can do well on limited contacts, or you think McDaniels will suddenly change the gear because the gear is a player, instead leaning against the back of 215 pounds for the first time, then consider putting Henderson in consensus. Otherwise, understand that he will share the delegate like he is against the commander, and despite doing something great, he will make some mistakes, as he does to the commander.
If he is going to be the top 60 draft pick, it's better to let someone else pick Henderson. Otherwise, please seize the opportunity.
