Re: Man Among Boys - WR Kevin Benjamin 6-5 234lbs Florida State

he is an over glorified TE that runs sloppy routes and drops a ton of passes.

a lot like Jimmy but not as good

media hyped player in book with scouts going what if......

High risk player with high rewards possibilities

Brandon Coleman WR Rutgers 6-6 220 would be a safer pick in the lower rounds and have just as high rewards possibility in the long run

I really wish we had plucked Da'Rick Rogers off waivers during the season.

Reminds me a little of Anquan Boldin.

If he can play like Boldin in the pros he will be a steal for someone. On the other hand, if he plays like J.J. Stokes....

most say he is a day two pick others have him as a day 3. i think you maybe right 3/4 with this being a deep WR class in the draft

combine and pro days should give us a better feel.

big thing in my book is his smarts.

two-time conference all-academic team selection and is one semester away from earning his degree

but either way i would not pick either one except if he is viewed as a solid project by the saints

CBS Sports' Bruce Feldman believes FSU's Kelvin Benjamin is more boom-or-bust than any other WR in the class.

"Benjamin will make personnel folks' chins hit the floor when they first see him," Feldman writes. "Thing is, he's even more raw than Evans and it took him a while to get a sense of FSU's routes/offense and he seems like more of a project." Feldman adds this would make him leery of Benjamin. The massive wideout will be 23 in February and slowly progressed before bursting out in his final season. He still has inconsistencies at the catch point and had a drop rate of over nine percent.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.
