Does PFF even watch football?

People talking poo about KB need to pump the damn brakes.

 

Considering the fact that Kelvin Benjamin has been the focal point of our WR core despite being a rookie who came into said core after the general manager completely cleared it out, I have to say he has been pretty damn impressive considering the circumstances we put him in.

 

I've been disappointed with the drops I've seen from him, but when taking into account all the factors, I'm thrilled to have him.

 

Based on what we know from him, he should only continue to perfect his craft and improve in the coming years.

He has more drops than any rookie, he's been quitting on his routes, and he has been the most penalized of those listed as well. 

 

Having said that, the only receivers targeted more in the NFL than him thus far this year are Jeremy Maclin, Julio Jones, DeMaryius Thomas, and Antonio Brown.

 

He's a rookie playing like a rookie as a number one option. No one is saying he's not good. He's just not an all around receiver yet.

KB and Olsen are the only things we have on offense this year.

KB isn't playing like a rookie even with some of the drops. Shula and Rivera are underutilizing Cam, KB, and everyone else. I can only imagine KB with a legit OC who could put him in situation to win every battle.

Definitely skewed because he IS the entirety of our receiving corps. More balls thrown his way than any other rookie I'm sure. That and I don't think style points factor into anything for PFF, do they?

 

That said, Kelvin Benjamin is so overrated by this fan base. I think he'll improve next year, but some of his route running has been abysmal, he's been super lazy at times, and has had some awful drops. Mike Evans should be ROTY and not Kelvin Benjamin. I would have him ranked around 6th or 7th in terms of rookie receivers this year, not LOL 34th, but not #1 or even #2 either.

I'm more frustrated with him not using his body and giving up on routes, both those slants he ran the past two weeks led to turnovers because he didn't run them precisely. You could even see Ricky Proehl yelling at him yesterday about it.

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me

      No We have been making excuses for him for 3 years, and we have gave him a hundred chances  Bryce is a bust, and we need to cut him now and stop wasting everyone's time
