The hoopla, hysteria and general hype are unrivaled around the NFL Draft, where the usual pomp and circumstance is filled with stylish suits, neck-draped bling, main-stage struts, Roger Goodell bro hugs and lifelong dreams realized. However, selfish gamers only care about one thing — Where does the rookie rank in the fantasy pecking order?
TreVeyon Henderson, RB, New England Patriots
Presumably the John Oates in the Patriots’ split backfield, Henderson has plenty of "Maneater" appeal.
As his days with Quinshon Judkins at Ohio State clearly prove, tandem usage is where Henderson is best deployed. Approximately 10-12 touches per game operating behind Rhamondre Stevenson is a fair initial expectation.

Last season for Brutus, Henderson posted the third-best YAC per attempt in the country (4.43), tallied 21 runs of 15 or more yards and forced an appreciable 0.255 missed tackles per attempt. According to scouts, his rapid acceleration, plus agility, reliable pass-catching hands and well-documented iron grip on the rock are attractive attributes.

Behind an upgraded New England offensive line (including LSU tackle Will Campbell, the draft’s No. 4 overall pick) and given his versatile skill set, Henderson should hover around the RB30 mark in 0.5 PPR formats.
