And I'm sorry, look at all these gifs and tell me HE DOESN'T HAVE HANDS!!! IT'S A GOD DAMN LIE!!!

 

He has good hands, but he sometimes tried to run before he caught the ball on the easy or routine catches (concentration).   He was looking for the big play.  He is going to be a good one.

Nice GIF's.

 

One thing I notice about Benjamin (among many): He tracks the ball well. 

 

You notice in most of his highlights, he turns around, extends or explodes, and catches the ball with the DB on his feet, or out of position.

 

This is because, instead of turning around early and allowing the DB to fight, jostle with him, KB just appears to turn at the right time and find the space to catch the ball.This is also cause he runs decent routes, and/can be shifty, before (as well as after the catch as we've seen). 

 

Of course, NFL DB's will be better. However, I fee this bodes well for him in the future.

The guy has a lot of potential and I sure hope he does become the panthers top WR for the next 10 years but to say better than Watkins is a very bold statement but then again how many times has those can't miss players get drafted in the top 10 and end up becoming a bust? Look at the 2005 NFL draft, 6 WRS taken in the first and only one is still playing and he was the last WR drafted in the first with the #27 pick, Roddy White. Braylon Edwards, Troy Williamson, Mike Williams, Matt Jones, Mark Clayton were the others drafted in the 1st round. Who knows maybe its time we finally got lucky on WRs in the Draft for once.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
