Nope, 3rd.

I think White goes in front of Cooper based on measurables. I think Cooper is the safer pick however.

Hell no. In all likelihood he would probably fall somewhere near his actual draft spot. Kevin white is a also a big bodied receiver but with elite speed, especially compared to Benjamin's paltry 40 time.

Behind White and Cooper.

I'd be tempted to pick him as the first receiver. He's physically imposing, and a difference maker

Edit: I answered based on what we know of Benjamin now, not by what we knew when he entered the draft

No, 3rd after White and Cooper. Maybe even 4th after Parker from Louisville. Benjamin had some baggage about his attitude and work ethic.

3rd probably. Teams would still drool over his size

4th at best behind White, Cooper, and DGB.

Hell no. He'd be in the second tier with Parker, Strong and DGB. probably the #3-5 WR taken.

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.
