Kelvin Benjamin: We need you bud

[The Saltman]

There's simply no way that stat is correct. That would only leave him with roughly 6 or 7 drops on the season, a number that we all know is obviously much higher.

shrug.

[IGSaint]

I think Cam needs to do a better job of not letting Olsen fade out of game plans if we are to win

 

Isn't that shula's responsiblity? 

[Dex]

Well, for one Lafell has never sniffed a 1,000 yard season and Benjamin has over 1k after just his rookie year.

 

 

Lafell and Benjamin shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence.

You just did. They do have some similarities but KB gets better separation and Lafell was a much better blocker. Hopefully he can find some hands to catch with. I still believe he's better suited as a #2. Great value for where we got him in the draft though. I'm happy to have him.

[CRA]

Isn't that shula's responsiblity?

Shula can't force a QB to make throws. I'm not a huge Shula fan but at this point he takes blame for everything.

Cam has a hand in it.

[Jmac]

Chain him to the jugs machine and start blasting away.

Of course that is true but other times I feel that shula doesn't call plays that utilize Olsen very often. Or he calls them and goes away from them. Cam definitely needs to look for Olsen more though too.

If Benjamin is our #2 we'll be in incredible shape.

 

I think Benjamin's bottom-floor is Lafell's ceiling.

Lafell had a 62 % catch rate this year.  KB had a 51 % catch rate.

Actually, Olsen drops passes too, Cam tried to gonyo him in the 3rd qtr on 3rd down and he dropped iy.

[The Saltman]

I think KB can be a #1 if he improves on his drops but another round 1 receiver would be beneficial to this team.

Did he fade out or did ATL pay him more attention after those first couple of catches?  I'd have to watch the tape to see.

[Gabeking]

I really hope he's not Lafell 2.0. Makes ridiculous catches he has no business hauling in and then drops the routine ones.

I've never once seen LaFell make the kind of catches KB makes

[Happy Panther]

Well, for one Lafell has never sniffed a 1,000 yard season 

953 seems pretty close

[Cary Kollins]

Lafell had a 62 % catch rate this year.  KB had a 51 % catch rate.  

 

 

 

Can you imagine if a 23 year old Lafell were thrust into the #1 spot like KB was this season?

 

 

He would have probably been Jimmy Clausen'd.
