Kelvin Benjamin is NOT a Number 1 WR - Being Phased Out with the Youth Movement

Recommended Posts

This is a weak fa class. With golladay emerging tate may be available. Enunwa is the second best realistic option.

If you can get him back on a 6-7 Million dollar a year contract I'd be ok with that, but he cannot be the first option.   That said, contracts are going to get ridiculous next year, and given they are already insane for wideouts, I think you end up seeing guys like John Brown and Randall Cobb getting 15-17 a year. 

 

He's well on his way to a one-year prove it deal.

This guy looks slow, does not make plays for his QB, has compete, and focus issues.

 

No way I sign him to a big deal. 

 

You're right, he's not #1... he's #13. 

 

Man, I thought you were pretty sharp. Surprised I had to point this out.

In all seriousness, if he has another clunker game, don’t be surprised if he’s IRd with an injury.  Bills will not release him because of comp pick formula.  

You cant 'fake' an injury to IR a player  just  because you are disappointed in a player's  'production. Players union will make sure of that

A rookie can't verbally get all over a veteran's arse.  It wouldn't work. 

 

That's what the play hurdling Barr was about.  It's a gauntlet. 

It's a "here's what I got athletically, here's what I'm willing to do to get the team a 1st down.  What YOU got?" moment.

 

 

He's got talent right enough.  That's what's so frustrating.  He could if he would, but his head and his heart aren't there.

 

Let him go? Who we got behind him?

 

What's he done?  Nothing from nothing leaves nothing right?

I think trading for Benjamin was Beane's worst decision to date, not remotely close to worth a 3rd and 7th. He knew exactly what he was getting, having spent years in Carolina with him. He has the size, and has made some great catches in his career, but I noticed little red flags here and there with him. I may be nitpicking, but when he trashed Cam and then jumped into the crowd after scoring a touchdown in a PRESEASON game, I thought he made a fool of himself. Then, After having a terrible game against the Ravens, he said he felt like he was doing fine, and something along the lines of "of course I'm a #1 receiver, why wouldn't I be?", as if this is something that is presupposed and not earned and retained through productivity. He's complacent, and the greats never are. I will be severely disappointed if the Bills resign him, unless it is for a very low price

FACTS.

 

Benjamin is more of a disappointment than Samantha Watkins.

Watkins, Woods, !@#$ it even Hogan > Benjadrop

Facts! that @sshole doesnt even know the playbook. Everyone has to tell him where to line up.
He backstabbed Cam Newton and didnt even man up and say it to his face when he grilled him in pre-season. I dont like Cam but I gained new respect after seeing him confront Benjabtch.

Im starting to realize Kelvin Benjamin is a btch and a half

Kup has twice as many yards in the first half of this game then KB has all year.

 

Kup is dope. Benji is trash.

I like much of what this organization is doing, but what has happened on wide receivers makes no sense.   Benjamin could still turn out OK if he stops dropping passes, but it pains me to regularly see four receivers (Watkins, Woods, Goodwin and Hogan) that were once Bills produce every week and know that they would likely be a better #1 at this point than Benjamin.   

 

It's ok not to retain people if the price isn't right, and at the time, cases could have been stated for not retaining the four that I mentioned.   However, if you get rid of people, you have to replace them with something better or at least comparable.   As of now, Buffalo has failed to do that by a long shot.
