The best thing on Benjamin's resume...

Recommended Posts

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.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
