billsredneck1 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) i'm sure it's been said but maybe this is all due to not having one qb getting all the no. 1 reps since may. i was convinced of the competition and as it were , nate won that. .....but knowing the state of the team and the need for time to set things up for their new qb, trading ajm, put up the huge red stupidity flag that i thought i'd never see with this f.o. we needed a year for josh to sit so we can build the offensive side of this roster and they basically wasted 4 months with ajm on the roster...who, btw could possibly be salvaging our season right now. i don't expect to see jackshhttt out of kb now that he has his me attitude rolling. the sooner he's gone the better and in case the f.o. is not aware...the d trade deadline is approaching.

Thurman#1 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 When playing well, he's on the bubble of being a #1. He's not playing well right now. Hopefully he'll get things righted.

But right now he's not seeing all the field. Nobody's playing well on that side of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't appear that letting KB go for a 3rd round pick was a difficult one for Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I said, "I hope he'll get things righted." As for his time in Carolina, it sure looked to me like they thought KB and Funchess were pretty much the same player and Benjamin missed a year to injuries and was injured again, though playing his last year there, so they decided to keep the younger healthy guy.

ESPN Stats & Information PLAYER, TEAM PCT. Laquon Treadwell, Vikings 28.6% Kenny Stills, Dolphins 15.4% Terrelle Pryor, Jets 14.3% Kelvin Benjamin, Bills 14.3% Yup, he's going through a bad patch. Treadwell, Stills and Pryor have also never been this bad before. If he keeps playing this badly, it will be a huge problem. But so far in his career, this is by far his worst stretch. Might just be a bad few games or a bit of a slump. Might not be that. But it might and his history says that's probably what it is.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 5, 2018 Author Share Posted October 5, 2018 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The scene is a familiar one at Kelvin Benjamin’s locker. Each Thursday since the start of the Buffalo Bills’ season, Benjamin has held court with local media after practice. The questions haven’t changed much, because Benjamin’s performance hasn’t changed much. The former first-round pick has seven catches for 92 yards and a touchdown in four games. His season high for catches in a game is three. His season high for yards in a game is 34. At the moment, 126 NFL players have more receiving yards than Benjamin. Josh Allen has more yards rushing than Benjamin has receiving this season. “I feel like nobody feels like we’ve done enough,” Benjamin said. “Offense, defense, the whole team. We’re not where we want to be right now. We have to just keep working, man. Josh is a young guy but he knows we’re going to keep grinding and keep working.” Benjamin laughs when he’s asked whether he’s frustrated. He has called himself a No. 1 receiver, but his numbers don’t reflect that claim. As he unwraps the tape from his wrists and removes his gloves, Benjamin lets out a sigh. “You’re frustrated, but you still have to come each week and just forget about it and focus in,” Benjamin said. “It’s a new team and a new scheme that we’re running. You have to just kind of refocus in and keep believing in the process and believe that it’s going to come. Just keep working.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) Kelvin Benjamin and the Sorry State of the Buffalo Bills Receiving Corps - Last Word on Pro Football When the Buffalo Bills brought in Kelvin Benjamin ahead of the trade deadline last year, it appeared to be an upgrade to a receiving corps lacking depth. After all, Benjamin averaged 975 yards and eight touchdown catches during the two seasons he played for the Carolina Panthers in which he was healthy. His time with the team last year wasn’t exactly eye-popping. Benjamin managed just 16 catches for 217 yards and a touchdown which indicates his contribution to the Bills ending their long playoff drought was minimal at best. But there’s always a process associated with a player familiarizing himself with the nuances and intricacies of a new offense which tempered concern. With 2018 a contract year, optimism abounded regarding his ability to morph into a legitimate feature receiver. Fast forward to the present and there are certainly few if any restraints on the concern Bills fans have regarding Benjamin. He’s the poster child of a severely underperforming receiving corps at or near the bottom of the NFL in myriad important statistical categories. It’s one of a few mitigating factors inhibiting Josh Allen‘s development during his rookie season. Edited October 6, 2018 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsatlastin2018 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 The real question for this thread, is whether the Bills have ANY NFL calibre Receivers, including that bogus stiff... Clay! I think not. They're all Beer League bums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with him being a TE but I do think we need to put him in a position that plays to his strengths. Benjamin needs to be moved into the slot for the remainder of the season. We are kind of stuck with what we have at WR and TE., moving KB to the slot might get him more involved in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a better blocking TE than he is WR. He’s a better backup center than he is WR. I’ve always thought he was a bum. A product of Winston and Newton.....and has the audacity to talk **** on Cam. What a joke this guy is. If he doesn’t go to a team with a Star QB his career is gonna be over real quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the slot KB can get some short receptions and use his catch radius, RAC and size to his advantage when he does catch the football. Like it or not he is the #1 WR and hopefully he can have more than a few solid showings to help Allen get the most out of his rookie season.

He has a very favorable matchup today. If he doesn’t produce today, I’d cut him. His effort and focus is exactly what McD is trying to rid the franchise of. He’s cancerous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
