KB the TE?

Kelvin Benjamin as a TE.  He’s got the stature, if he can turn that extra 25 lbs he’s packed on into muscle it’s not a bad option.  Benjamin would need to work on his blocking skills and toughness( which I think comes from fear of repeat injury), but with Greg as a mentor it could be done.

If the Panthers move Benjamin to TE, grab Alshon Jeffery in the free agency to pair with Devin Funchess and Ted Ginn Jr.

I like this idea. Thoughts?

They would need to use him like the saints used to use Jimmy Graham but it could work. Kelvin just has to put the effort in which isn't something he's known for so I doubt anything would come of it.

Man, what is it? Just enough to make enough and not give a sh!t? 

I'm pretty too, but I've had to work for what I've got.

Really bad idea. People are talking about KB being lazy and they want him to add 25 pounds. Oh, 25 pounds of muscle?

No thanks. He's played two seasons, 1 after an ACL and with 1 more game to play has 130 catches for 1856 yards and 15 TDs.

Steve Smith is a helluva player, but his first 4 years was 158-2196-10TDs and like KB he lost a year. KB will blow by that next year if he stays healthy.

We had a bad year, but let's not act like KB has been awful. His first two years actually compares well statistically to the top WRs like AJ Green, Julio Jones and Mike Evans and none of them had to rehab from an ACL tear before their second full year. How about we not be dumb and we see where he is in 2017, his second year after the ACL, which is when most players aside from Adrian Peterson get back to normal.

I'll give you all that. As long as KB went to the same doctors as TD... but saw some bad sh*t from KB. Trying to get DPI comes to mind and getting OPI. I have faith he comes back strong. As the whole team.

Effort is the key. As a WR he's not put much effort. Lazy route running, giving up on plays, dropping catch-able balls. You're literally slapping Greg Olsen in the face for even mentioning KB as a TE. 

He has 2 drops this season. Two

No way KB would go for this. TE gets less money than WR.

Bottom line, Ego and Benjamins, (see what I did there?).
