3. TREVEYON HENDERSON, Ohio State (5-10, 204, 4.40, 2): Four-year starter. Largest production came as a freshman (1,248 yards, 15 touchdowns). “Helped himself at the combine,” one scout said. “Ran pretty fast. He’s really, really well-liked. He’s undersized. Does he run good? Yeah, but people value other positions more than running backs. I don’t think he’s going in the first.” Missed games in 2022-’23 with a variety of injuries. “The durability is the big question for him,” said a second scout. “He has to stay healthy. He went through injury problems a year ago, which really hurt the team. He’s got good feet. I don’t know if he has elite vision like some other guys. I wouldn’t put him in the first but because his hands are good enough and he’s a big-play threat I could see him going in the second. He’s a great guy. He’ll be great in the locker room no matter where he goes. I never saw him as having great vision to be a consistent inside runner.” Finished with 590 carries for 3,761 (6.4) and 42 TDs to go with 77 receptions for 853 (11.1) and six scores. “He’s got pick and slide and movement and balance,” a third scout said. “Really good hands. He’s a rotational starter. Maybe second round.” Five-star recruit from Hopewell, Va., ranked as the No. 1 prep back in the U.S. “Mid-round type guy,” a fourth scout said. “Not dynamic or anything like that. Just a steady Eddie guy.”
Been saying durability and lack of vision scare the hell out of me with him.
