The best thing on Benjamin's resume...

He's 6'5" with a great wingspan. His vertical will go up with our strength and conditioning program, I think. Get a little more explosiveness in his hips and hamstrings. Which is crazy, considering he'll be catching balls over CB's heads from day one here.


We gon' be good.

You all need to stop paying so much damn attention to vertical numbers. Have you even watched how a vertical is measured? It is 90% technique. It has little to do with real time game play.

Also about that catch, everyone watching knew the ball was going to Benjamin, and he still was able to convert.

Kid is raw. He only played two years of college ball and never had to become real polished due to his freaky athleticism.

If he really puts the work in, this could be the steal of the draft. JJ quoted a scout as saying if KB stayed another year in college, he would have been a top 5 pick next year.

No wonder it took us no time to get our pick in.

Wouldn't mind getting the guy giving up that TD either ;-)

 

 

If he's available in the 4th round, it wouldn't be a bad pick at all.

 

Chris Davis had a 40.5 inch vertical, 4.51 40-yd dash, 10' 4" broad jump.  He's pretty decent in coverage against guys not 6-5 :lol: .

 

He also brings top-notch kick and punt return skills with him which this team could use right now.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
