Will Yeldon be able to play this week

GrayTide · Sep 17, 2014

Both Jones and Tenpenney looked good although by then USM was completely beaten down. Not bad backups though.

I would limit Yeldon in the game. give him few touches to test himself... but take him out of the game. Henry, Drake, Jones can handle this. We definitely need Tyree Jones, Dude is a beast. I'll be shocked if we use Jones once in a while... spiltting time with Drake since Drake is everywhere on the field.

Derek Henry was used sparingly in HS and I don't think he could handle 30 touches in one game.

I hope TJ is ok, but I wouldn't mind seeing DH get 20+ touches in a game. He seems like the kind of back that would get stronger as the games progresses!

I will say I'm comfortable going with Henry, Drake, and Jones if he isn't ready.

I like Tenpenny too.

Hamstrings are tough. I hope TJ's ready.
If not, the biggest Derrick Henry fan on this board declares, start Kenyan Drake.
IMO, Derrick's been slow to the hole and isn't playing with fire, while Kenyan is playing his butt off and is on a quest to prove himself.
Don't show me statistics--they're similar.
But Kenyan, from what I've seen thus far, is more determined than Derrick, team wise.
Every opinion I ever state is, "as of right now".
As of right now, if T.J. doesn't start, I'd start Kenyan.

You knew that Henry is playing with a bum shoulder? That definitely affects the way a RB approaches the LOS...

When did he injure his shoulder? I'm not saying he didn't I just don't remember hearing about it..

Saban mentioned it in his post game pressor.

Ah ok. Guess I missed reading/hearing about that. Thanks..

With a bye week coming up after the Florida game, I wouldn't mind resting anyone who is not close to 100%. We have a tough stretch of games starting in October, so we need everyone at full strength.
