Man Among Boys - WR Kevin Benjamin 6-5 234lbs Florida State
Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Florida State
Height: 6-5. Weight: 234. Projected 40 Time: 4.55. You may need to mute the music. His play speaks for itself. Would be an incredible addition to our WRs plus he likes to block. |

Re: Man Among Boys - WR Kevin Benjamin 6-5 234lbs Florida State
I don't know. I've seen him play, and he is pretty good and all. He's physical and has good hands, but not much speed and I'm not sure he's a good enough route runner to make up for that.
Watching guys like Colston and Toon trudge around the field is getting on my nerves. I see Benjamin as possibly another in that mold. |

He is graded to go in the first or second round,for me with a lack of speed its a bit high.You cant be certain he can get the separation needed at the highest level.If you want a big body receiver then wait till a little latter and take a look at
Devin Street,Pittsburgh,6-4/190lb(rounds 2-4) Cody Hoffman,BYU,6-4/215lb(Round 4-5) I brought them and a few other later picks that might be worth keeping a eye on http://blackandgold.com/saints/62855...-draft-31.html |

Re: Man Among Boys - WR Kevin Benjamin 6-5 234lbs Florida State
We need receivers with aptitude. I'm not saying he's not intelligent but from the interview the tea leaves say major project in our offense. I doubt he would see the field for a while. I also doubt he goes in the 1st, he's slow and after this season size is becoming less of an attribute as it once was. Refs are letting DBs get away with more and more. I hope we don't use any picks on receivers to be honest. Toon may come around and Morgan can play the physical game if he can stay on the field long enough.

NFL Draft Profile: Is imposing FSU receiver another Jon Baldwin? - KansasCity.com
I'm not saying I don't like the guy but he played in a very pass happy offense and he's physically more mature than everyone on the field. I think he's 23 or 24 years old? I think he got kept back twice in high school. The way his weight ballooned to 260 gives him a Mike Williams(USC) scare factor. In any other year some of these low second rounders/early 3rd could possibly be first rounders. I'm not so keen on taking Benjamin. I do think he can be a touchdown machine in the pros given his size, but for me personally, I'd question his explosiveness at the next level. |
Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.
All little common sense goes a long way. |

I think his combine will cause him to fall down draft boards, the way he moves just kinda seems... awkward.
