Derrick Henry 2020 Fantasy Football Recap

Derrick Henry‘s 2020 season was nothing short of amazing. The 27-year-old had a 2000-yard rushing season with the Titans, and hardly any of the teams he faced could slow him down. Henry had 10 games of over 100 yards rushing last season and three games over 200. In addition, there were only four games that Henry did not break the 10-point mark in fantasy football and six games where he scored over 20 points.

Derrick Henry 2021 Fantasy Football Outlook

Henry is a fantasy stud, and if he stays healthy, he should be able to repeat what he did last year. Many people are worried about the addition of Julio Jones taking away carries from Henry, but when you have an offense built to run like the Titans do, there’s no need to get away from what has worked.

Derrick Henry 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Value (PPR)

Henry is easily a first-round pick. His value does drop in PPR leagues, but when a running back can put up 2000 yards like Henry is, you’re willing to spend a top-five pick on him. Most would see Henry as RB5 heading into the season, and in a PPR league, that’s a fair assessment. However, if Henry does fall in your draft beyond six or seven, he’s worth an immediate grab. He will put up big numbers and will be a force yet again, barring injury.
