Even when there could be two RB slots on most of those teams?  (The SN, Walter Camp, FWAA, and AP all had two RBs on their first teams last year, and the AFCA had 3.)  I agree that Henry will be one of those, but do you think Fournette or Cook will beat out McCaffrey for the other first team spot?  That would be very disappointing.

I think even with 2 slots there's basically no chance McCaffrey gets on every single ballot. There are too many good RBs this year and McCaffrey isn't actually amazingly good at the "taking the ball from the quarterback on a handoff" part of the RB equation, which I think is really important here. If you're looking at the best RBs in college football, they're Cook, Elliot, and Fournette. (Incidentally, this is why I am so annoyed at Henry's involvement with the Voldemort, even as a pure running back he's not even close to the best this year.)
