Rookie running back Darrell Henderson saw his fantasy draft position skyrocket this offseason when he was selected by one of the league's best offenses. Henderson, who at Memphis produced one of the most impressive seasons by a running back in college football history this past year, was selected in the third round of the Draft and many are viewing him as the eventual Todd Gurley replacement. In an offense as potent as Los Angeles', that could very well make Henderson one of the breakout fantasy stars as early as this season.
The traditional strategies of "handcuffing" may not apply in Los Angeles, however, as we don't know exactly what the team plans on doing at the position if they do end up being without Gurley for any sort of significant stretch this season. We thought that Malcolm Brown or even John Kelly would be the Gurley replacement in 2018 but it ended up being veteran C.J. Anderson who didn't even begin the season with the Rams.
Still, we saw what even an aging, slow, unathletic back like Anderson could do when given an opportunity in this high-powered offense. Anderson ripped off three straight 100-yard games on the Rams while totaling 488 rushing yards and four touchdowns in the five games he played. Given that Anderson was released by both the Panthers and Raiders earlier in the 2018 season, it's safe to say that he was a shell of his former self, yet he was still productive in this Rams offense once given the opportunity.
That's the type of upside that a player like Darrell Henderson would be stepping into if he were to be given the opportunity to see the lion's share of touches in this backfield. Even without an injury to Gurley, there's a very realistic possibility that the Rams could simply opt to limit Gurley's touches this season, especially now that they have a young, athletic back like Henderson on the roster. A roughly 60/40 backfield split is not out of the question and would make Henderson a viable starter in many fantasy leagues on a week-to-week basis, especially given that he could see serious touches down the stretch in games where the Rams are significantly ahead on the scoreboard.

Rams release Todd Gurley
RB was due $10.5 million today
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Mar 19, 3:44 pm
| | Rams are releasing RB Todd Gurley, per source. Cutting him today spares the Rams from having to pay him an additional $10.5 million due today. Rams spent weeks exploring a trade for him. Now Gurley will be free to sign with any team. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Another reminder that the average dollar figure of contracts don't mean a damn thing. Gurley received a four-year, $60 million dollar extension less than two seasons ago. Gurley's ankle and knee issues have bothered him over the last two seasons, but much like David Johnson, teams will be willing to give a player of his caliber another shot. Malcolm Brown and Darrell Henderson are next up on the Rams running back depth chart.
