Nor am I. Which is why I'm not saying take him in the 2nd round.
But as a 4th rounder (may have to take him at the back of 3, but I kinda doubt it with the depth of the RB class), he doesn't have to in order to be a really productive draft pick.
And it frees up that 1st rounder for a position you think might be more impactful.
Like I said -- it comes down more to your plan than anything. If you WANT a 225 carry, 75 catch back, I think you very strongly consider Henderson. That's right at the apex of what I think he can give you.
But if you intend to go with 125 carries and 50 catches while spreading the rest of that workload around, Giddens is a similar (but inferior) type of player to Henderson who would require far less investment.
