Former Alabama Heisman-winning RB Derrick Henry is one of the best running backs in the NFL. In fact, the Tennessee Titans star just won the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year award for his impressive 2020 campaign.

However, another talented Alabama running back is about to join the pro ranks. That would be Najee Harris, who finished fifth in the Heisman voting this past season.

Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald spoke to an anonymous former NFL GM who said Harris is a better prospect entering the draft than Henry was:

“You can’t say he’s going to be as good as [former Alabama running back] Derrick Henry, but he’s better than Henry coming out of college,” said the former GM, who asked for anonymity because he’s still involved in the league. “Besides the power, he looks like he has the speed. It’s not 3 yards and a cloud of dust. To me, he would be a great pick.”

Will the Miami Dolphins be the ones to draft Harris? Or, will he end up going to some other team in the 2021 NFL Draft?

We’ll see what happens to his draft stock over the next couple of months as the April event draws ever closer.
