Henry doesn't feel left out: LenDale White is coming off a 1,110-yard, breakout season for the Titans, while first-round pick Chris Johnson has blazing, home run-threat speed. And then there's Chris Henry, the forgotten running back. Henry hopes to be a wildcard for an offense that struggled for find firepower last season. Naysayers provide no motivation. "I get motivated by competition," Henry said in the Tennessean, "and the level of competition is great here." Last year, Henry finished the season with 119 yards, averaging 3.8 yards per carry, and two touchdowns in seven games. (Updated 05/28/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Although it seems unlikely the Titans would've drafted another running back so early if they were convinced Henry was on the verge of breaking out, Coach Jeff Fisher said Henry is on the right track. "Chris played a role for us on special teams last year and when he got called upon in games he made plays for us," Fisher said. "If there is (pressure) it is outside (the team), it is not inside. Chris is heading into his second year and is improving." Look for Henry to be the third RB in the mix. If anything, draft him with a late-round pick in all leagues. Otherwise, see what develops with White and Johnson, and if Henry plays a role early on, add him off the waiver wire. (Updated 05/28/2008).
