Saturday's practice tweets

[ctrcat]

i actually wanted Cooks. but seeing how Benjamin is performing, i think we are blessed to have the man over Cooks and Lee. makes me curious... how are Mike Evans and Sammy Watkins doing? werent they the only ones taken ahead of Benjamin, aside from Cooks?

 

KB would have been a top 5 pick if he stayed, I have zero doubt.  GMan (with guidance from Proehl) had zero doubt, given how lightning fast our card was turned in-the shortest wait time in the draft.

as much trouble as he's had on the outside, I've only heard worse on the inside. I don't know what they expect him to do by putting him in the middle this year.

If he doesn't improve from now until the start of the season he might not even be active alot. We already have so many good dlineman

@BlackBlueReview: ICYMI: Video from 1st half of practice - KB's back, so is Norman, Cam's sensitive ankle, great Clemons catch http://t.co/AzbgiGQQLV

KB showing off his huge mitts at the end

 

Yes, I noticed that to.

 

KB's hands, just swallowed up, absorbed/deadened the ball, like a 6'5" dread-locked black hole!! :startle:

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

If Bene can show up like this is real games, he's going to be much more than a "starting nickel" very quickly.

[FootballMaestro]

Nice find.

 

2 things jumped out.

 

Cams Ankle and KB's 1 hander.

 

That dude has some serious paws, hopefully he will improve on his drops from FSU.

 

Also, to those who are there, is KB's blowing up on him or a warning about our CB's?

 

Has he dropped one in practice?? :startle:

 

Stay positive man. :cool:

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Damn, KB's one-hander ...

 

He brought that in so easily. The ball looks so small in his hands.

could be the case for sure..

[CarolinaNCSU]

If Norman could get his head on straight, the potential of him, Cason, White, and Bene as the CBs would have me excited. I doubt that's going to happen though.

That is fuging sad.

I'm not going overboard yet because it is still so fuging early to tell but I was dissapointed initially when we drafted him.

Nothing popped out. He was good at everything but not great at one thing (minus his initial burst) I'm looking at him as a prospect. Put it this way he ain't no 2nd round like kawaan short was last year. Still tons of time and some players play in games better than practice.

[UpstatePanther]

he's hurt

 

ah thats unfortunate for the kid.

I'm taking a family day. Heard there were no pads tomorrow. If that's the case I'll resume Tuesday. No practice Monday.

KB was tied for second biggest hands of all WR's at the combine. KB, Jarvis Landry and Willie Snead all measured in at 10 1/4. Only guy with bigger hands was Jordan Matthews and he measured in at 10 3/8.

I would have loved a Benjamin Matthews combo. Was he on the board when we took ealy? Haven't given up on him, just saying.

Norman's feet looking quick in that video.  I hope he can put it together.

 

Cason/White/Norman/Bene (in no particular order)..then Dockery, Byndom playing well.  Godfrey might not make the grade.
