Kelvin Benjamin sad after ATL Postgame

You could see how KB looked during the post game talk and I doubt it was because he is camera shy, i bet he knew he could have done better and I hope it doesn't get him too down and he gives it his all come playoffs. He is a rookie and still very much a young man. All he needs to do is work on those hands and always keeping focused like he has shown us when he catches balls no player let alone a rookie(not named OBJ)has any business catching, disappointment like these can only make him stronger! #Keep Pounding

Rookie or not, dropping passes excuses are officially worth nothing now. It's playoff time and he's being paid big money to catch passes and block DB'S..... but mostly JUST to catch passes.

 

EVERY PLAYER, including rookies, need to step up their play. Norwell has, Ealy has, Bene has, Trai has, tre has...... it's time for our first round pick to step his play up for playoffs. No execuses.

It takes a certain amount of refined skill and coordination to have good hands. Not everyone can just go out there develop good hands this late in their career. Sort of similar to ball-handling and shooting in basketball. 

 

This isn't no sure easy thing KB can fix. Sure he can improve no doubt, but its also possible he never really fixes his dropsie problem.

I said that KB was the right pick given where we ending up selecting.

 

As an FSU alum, I attended 3 of our home games in Tallahassee last year, and watched every FSU game on TV. There was a reason that he was not projected as a top 10 pick despite having a top 10 WR body and skill set.

 

He drops too many routine passes, and still yet, is not a WR that can dominate a football game like some of his rookie classmates. It is a constant of KB to drop simply passes and then make spectacular ones the next series or quarter. The problem is those drops are drive killers and CAN cause a QB to quickly lose confidence in him.

 

At the end of the day, he is a great WR for where he was selected and given the alternatives. 

 

But that doesn't mean that given that fact that he is the end all of our WR core, that 4 other rookie WRs this past year couldn't have achieve at least as good numbers in this offense.

 

He just needs to keep working, and the Panthers FO needs to get him some help to keep defenses from double teaming him.

    • I will start.  Please do not copy my ideas.  Reminder:  I SUCK at picking QBs, a tradition upheld since 2010. Aaron Rodgers___New York Giants__ Kirk Cousins*____will not be traded until after draft Sam Darnold __Minnesota Vikings (do not rule out a sign and trade) Justin Fields __Pittsburgh Steelers_ Russell Wilson Las Vegas Raiders So after these guys are signed in free agency, the following teams will need a QB entering the draft:   Cleveland NY Giants  (Signed Rodgers but might draft a QB too on day 2) NY Jets New Orleans Indianapolis Tennessee If my predictions are correct(?) two to three QBs could be available for trade.    Cousins could go to Indy, following the exit path for discarded Falcons QBs.  Tennessee will have to pick Ward and they should, which puts Cleveland in a unique situation.  I think the Jets, Raiders (if they don't sign Russell), and Saints will go hard after Sanders, and they will offer Cleveland a lot. Cleveland could move back, grab a bunch of draft capital, draft the T they need, and then they could draft a QB later--it all depends on how much they like Sanders.  The Saints have no cap room (-$44m), so a trade with Minnesota or Atlanta is out.  Moving up to #2 from #10 is expensive in terms of draft capital.  Suck it, Saints. They will have to stay with Carr.  I think that the Jets will trade up with Cleveland to get Sanders and Cleveland will take a T and draft a QB later.  Do not be surprised to see a player like Daniel Jones in Cleveland on a one-year deal if they trade back.  
    • Now Mikko is holding out on a Dallas trade over contract extension. He’s going to fug Canes over one way or another it appears. What we don’t need is a lame duck protecting his health for the free agent market, after paying the price of Necas and Drury for nothing.
    • Was listening to Rich Eisen, and he said he was hearing Darnold staying in Minnesota on a large, short-term deal (2 years?) and Daniel Jones to the Colts.
