Video of Bene's one handed pick from minicamp

Philly is the best route runner on the team, by far.

I was wondering for a long time maybe if I was just seeing things, or what... going back and looking at some of this dude's All-22 from last season and he just gets open like a damn boss.  Whether with straight up speed, or by running some absolutely beautifully crisp routes.  The fact that he was a rookie UDFA made it even more mind-boggling.  I've pretty much had to restrain myself from hyping him up.

A lot of the times the ball didn't even make it his way either due to Cam not looking his way, or the o-line got blown up so damn fast he didn't have a chance.  I bet we'll see a lot more balls thrown his way this year.

The fact that Zod has been talking him up all throughout OTA's and the apparent improvements he's made in the offseason...I think he's gonna blow up in a big way.  People are going to be asking this year, "who the hell is Philly Brown, and where did he come from?"  As hyped as everyone is about Funchess... he might be competing for 3rd right now.

I don't mind this so much. It's practice. To me, the play design sets Cam up to make a throw to a spot where the RB (Cotch) is moving his man (Bene) to. The defense is in Man coverage and Bene follows Cotch's route and happens to be in the spot where Cam is throwing. What they've learned here is to probably motion Cotch to that spot in the backfield and/or hold him in the backfield for a second or two to allow that out route by KB to develop without a DB coming underneath like Bene was able to do here.
