Compact and twitchy, Banks is an inside linebacker with explosive athletic traits but uneven execution. He can trigger instantly from his perch and has plus range from sideline to sideline. However, he plays with too much wasted movement when diagnosing and flowing to the football. He does an excellent job of slipping blocks without sacrificing gap leverage and is a wrap-up tackler. He can get hung up on take-ons and will void zone coverages at inopportune times, though. Inconsistency is an issue but his explosiveness and special-teams potential give him a chance to make a roster.
Fifth-year senior whose splashy early season performance against Texas A&M put him on the map. Henry is a slasher with a wiggly lower half, allowing him to make sudden cuts and elude tacklers in tight quarters. He’s quicker than fast and struggles to consistently read/react to the development of run lanes. While his burst can create occasional chunk gains, he too often does not keep runs on their designed tracks. He’s yet to show he can be a major factor on third downs and fumbled six times in the last three seasons, which could be impediments in his pursuit of a roster spot.
