It was interesting to see the Broncos give big money to Travis Henry in the off-season as they have proven that anyone can play running back for them and succeed.  Henry has carried the football 153 times for 653 yards (4.3 ypc) with 4 TD runs so far this season.  But he has been outplayed by a couple of undrafted rookies this season who both have huge upsides.  Selvin Young has been outstanding when given the chance to tote the rock so far this season.  Young has carried the football 100 times for 569 yards (5.7 ypc) with 1 TD run so far this season.  Even third stringer Andre Hall has been solid this season.  He has carried the football 41 times for 206 yards (5.0 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  Coach Shanahan might come off cocky saying that any running back can excel in his system…..but he has proven that to be a fact over the years.
