This Kelvin Benjamin weight issue is getting blown out of proportion.


Recommended Posts

I do think his current weight issues are definitely being overblown.  It's a legitimate point of discussion, but it's still overblown.

The real issue it raises for me is how dedicated is he?  I understand that last year he was limited on what he could do, so it was no surprise that he was not in ideal shape at the start of training camp.  However, he is fully healthy now, and at a time that most young. hungry players are spending time working on their craft, trying to improve their weaknesses, he's let himself get a little soft.

Sure, that doesn't mean he hasn't been working, but logic would tell you that someone working that hard in any physical activity wouldn't put on much weight.  The fact that he has a history of putting on weight and coming into camp a bit out of shape (even going back to college) is a little worrisome.  How is he going to react once he gets that big contract?  Is he going to become complacent and be an albatross on our salary cap?

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
