We should be bigger Darrell Henderson fans (and its not entirely our fault if we're not).

Have you watched Darrell Henderson's highlight reel? If not, go to YouTube. In particular, I'd check out this one against UCF, the #8 team in the nation when Memphis played them. Note how he's used as a wildcat QB on several plays.
Have you seen his stats? Pretty off the chart. 1,900 yards rushing with an 8.9 average.
We, as Rams fans, should be excited about this guy. Don't forget, several very good NFL backs have come from Day 2 of the draft in recent years (Alvin Kamara, Kareem Hunt, Derrick Henry), so there's no reason to think Henderson might not be a highly productive NFL RB.
The reason, of course, for any failure to get too excited about Henderson is Todd Gurley. I'd go so far as to say that the media, with its constant over-analysis of Gurley's knee, has almost put us in the position of avoiding talking up Henderson for fear of appearing overly concerned about Gurley.
Well, I say... we don't have to choose! We can be Gurley and Henderson fans. We can hope they both succeed. I find it hard to believe that anyone would disagree with the notion that two top RBs are better than one!
Gee... I hope I didn't hurt Malcolm Brown's feelings.
Three top RBs!
