I dunno. Around this time last year there was a lot of chatter about his work ethic and rumors that he was overweight. Some team is gonna pull a classic Al Davis and draft DGB high based on his freakish measurables.


The NFL is under a microscope with all these domestic violence problems. They will care about that issue moreso than a poor work ethic in which every coach in the league thinks they know how to motivate players like that

He caught the last pass of the CFB season and was on the cover on SI. I think not.

Is he the 1st receiver off the board?

I realize hindsight is 20/20, but I wouldn't have taken Kelvin Benjamin in the 1st round if I could take this season into account.

Everyone knew he had issues catching the ball, but this guy continuously graded out at the bottom of the list for rookie wide receivers. He had trouble with catching, routes, blocking and so forth. His stat line looked impressive, but you have to look deeper into his play.

Ravens have already said they won't draft anybody with a domestic violence sheet on them.

Actually, yes. There were questions about his catching ability.

Why's he catching national championship game clinching passes then?

Because you can make big catches but still have ball catching issues.

You can look up scouting reports from the draft and check out the criticisms of Benjamin this season. (He had the second most drops this season among WRs.)
