His RB12 Average Draft Position (ADP) trails my expectations. Given his track record and remarkable offseason conditioning regimen, I'm willing to spend the 21st pick overall to find out if Henry is the ultimate NFL unicorn or not.

Henry's RB12 ADP undervalues his elite role and track record; source targets him at pick 21.

Henry's RB12 ADP is undervalued relative to his track record and role. He leads the NFL in carries inside the 5-yard line (42) and is second in touchdowns (34) since joining Baltimore before 2024. His 5.2 yards per carry last season ranked fifth among qualified backs, and he totaled over 300 carries in each of his first two Ravens seasons. New head coach Jesse Minter called Henry a "major, major" part of the offense, and incoming offensive coordinator Declan Doyle said he will have "an immense role." The source argues Henry is a reasonably priced gamble at pick 21 overall, with elite production being normalized and discounted because of age; his track record and remarkable offseason conditioning suggest he could achieve his fifth consecutive top-eight fantasy finish.
