Just from watching this video you can see Winston is going to be a good QB in the NFL.  Those throws are all right on the money, Benjamin just drops them.  Hopefully he gets coached up and stops that bad habit.

Ryan McCrystal of DraftAce.com, former ESPN researcher, posted that video and wrote: "Surprised by some of the reaction to the Benjamin stat I tweeted earlier.. if you distrust stats, watch for yourself"

 

The Benjamin stat he posted that he is talking about is the pic below, which he posted and wrote: "Consider this before putting Kelvin Benjamin on your team's wish list..." He explained: "the select games is because I only chart against top competition...min. 4 games for each. Selecting toughest defensive matchups. Also don't penalize WRs for drops on poor throws."

About Lee, he wrote: "high number of screens probably inflates his catch %," and he said "that's (also) a given with Sammy...He was basically a 'Wide-RB'"

I've said it before and I'll say it again...

You can tell easily by looking at that video that it's a concentration issue... which is something that can easily be fixed.

First of, you tell KB that he is a big play receiver not a YAC receiver.

Then there is this simple jugs still where you line up 10 yards away from the jugs, catch the ball, count to two then turn up field. It significantly improves concentration.

That chart can be misleading. Would like to see his drops percentage from first. Then did he improve second year. I mean the guy was drafted on potential anyway. Even though he will be 24. Only played two seasons at a high level

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      I don't disagree, but you're not giving our offense enough credit, and I'm not saying we would win the SB, just that we would be contenders, which we would have been. The Bengals had a horrible start to the season last year and it caused them to just miss the playoffs by one game, but had they made it, they absolutely would have been contenders in the AFC.  They had a bad defense, probably worse than ours will be this year, and you can't convince me that we don't have a better offensive roster than they had last year.   We have a Top 10 OL, two 1k rushers from last year, two 1st round WRs, one of the best slot WRs in the league, and then Coker.  Like I said, their Top 2 WRs are better than ours will be this year, but we take them in every other spot, OL, RBx2, and our 3rd/4th WRs.   If Burrow was able to turn that team into a contender last year, no reason he couldn't do the same with our roster this year.  And hell, I think our offensive roster is better than KC's last year too, and while I know their defense did a lot of the heavy lifting last year, if you give Mahomes an improved offensive roster around him, he's going to be THAT much better himself. A Mahomes, Burrow, or Allen would be able to win the South by outscoring teams.  And yes, come playoff time against an Eagles or Lions juggernaut, our defense probably costs us the game, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't at least be contenders. If Bryce can prove me wrong and his supporters here right, and be THAT guy for us this year, I genuinely think we can be a real playoff threat in 2026 once we add a few more pieces to the defense and then be a genuine SB contender in 2027 if the team keeps improving. We're the 2022 Detroit Lions right now.   Great offensive pieces, tons of holes on defense, but if things go right we'll just miss the playoffs (like they did) and then be right in the playoff hunt the next year (like they did) and then be contenders the following season (like they did when they were the #1 seed).

      Hornets have had the worst luck of any professional sports franchise this century. Constantly drafting a slot below the generational talent, all because of the lottery done behind closed doors. It's been brutal and frankly unfair to be a diehard fan of this franchise, and I don't blame anyone for cutting out the stress.

      We will see if there is any logic to those sort of packages. I haven't seen a ton of evidence that Evero operates that way.
