Henley is excellent in pass coverage for a linebacker, and that’s his angle for this NFL draft. His size makes him a liability against the inside run, but Henley makes for a great situational linebacker for teams looking to improve their pass coverage at the position.

He was projected to go to Dallas in the 2nd Round. HeHeHe.

The talent is there as a sideline-to-sideline playmaker who can run with pretty much any back Looks the part with a solid, muscular build, and surprisingly long arms for his height. Good overall athleticism and straight-line speed. He’s very good in coverage when looking into the backfield in zone coverage - can even handle WRs on intermediate routes An elite tackler who rarely fails to wrap up As a pass rusher - he's got better each year and now presents as a serious option as a situational pass rusher Has some nice versatility - probably best as a weakside LB, but could easily handle the strong side and match up well against tight ends Adds an extra dimension as an elite special teamer A much better athlete than originally billed - surprised a lot at the combine with 4.54 forty along with an elite broad jump - showing real explosion A real ball hawk - always manages to seem to be in the right place at the right time. He's an interception machine A bit stiff but makes the clean open-field tackle. Good effort in pursuit. Handles misdirection well with quick change-of-direction ability. Comes downhill quickly against the run when Henley has an open lane. He’s at his best in coverage. He’s a fluid mover capable of turning and running with tight ends or mirroring backs coming out of the backfield.Go Rivers!
