Zach Charbonnet assesses Henry Jr. as unlikely trade candidate due to recent signing, multi-year contract security, and the fact that other teams would not likely be interested in him as part of a trade package given his undrafted status and limited 2026 season availability.

An aspiring Aaron Jones Sr., the rookie who had impressive moments in Commanders' camp finds his way to Seattle due to injuries; Henry is quick, makes sudden cuts, and he's creative in the open field. Henry also catches passes well, but routes and pass protection can improve. Waldman notes Henry is a favorite of his but it's a speculative addition that requires proof of concept if you're in leagues smaller than 25 roster spots; watch just how desperate the Seahawks are with their depth chart before you go out of your way to add him in re-draft leagues.
