Kelvin Benjamin: We need you bud

[AviationMX]

He looks a little tight on the easy plays...but I'm with the OP, he's due to break out a solid game.

There is so much awful in this post I don't know where to start. Good god.

 

some of what he said is true

[SOJA]

I agree the drops yesterday were concerning, but it was a big game for him and he might have had a case of the butterflies

[J.Cage]

...i mean...they only get bigger from here.

 

He's had a drop issue since college. 

[Donald LaFell]

I'll just say it, his hands aren't any better(or even worse) than LaFell's.

Except we've seen players throughout NFL history that have overcome drop issues. Donald just finished his fifth year.

If he is still having problems in year 3. Then it is what it is. Wouldn't write him off yet.

I trust Proehl for certain. It seems more mental than anything. The longer he has time to "think" it seems like the more likely he is to drop it.

I don't know why we are discussing Lafell but I will point out that Lafell had one down year in his career as far as drops. He has had mostly great hands besides last year. This year he is one of the best in the league.

 

Kelvin will have more drops because he is our #1 and the down field threat.

Don't see anyone talking about the rookie wall here. It's Benji's first year in the NFL, and he's only played a college schedule before. This time of year he's become used to being done with football for 5-6 weeks before a bowl game. Throw in all the work in OTAs and training camp he's had to do, and the man's getting tired because he's not used to the workload yet.

 

Sure our other rookies are killing it now, but they haven't started every game, either. I bet Benji's snap count is more than double any other rookie on our team.
