Dan continues his Top-25 UMass players with an article on Tyshon Henderson.

Henderson's UMass bio.

During his previous stint with the Minutemen, Whipple fielded one of the largest offensive lines in FCS. Henderson, at 6-7 340 has the size Whipple favors.

In pro football, the highest paid player is usually not the media-favorite quarterback; it's the LT guarding his blind side. Henderson's size makes him an obvious pro prospect. A couple of All-MAC years would build Henderson's resume.
