LOVE the deal! My only concern is our general lack of speed at the WR position - I like Matthews and KB, but would love if one was a speedster or if Zay could play that role effectively, but he isn't that fast...oh and he can't catch.

 

He looked pretty darned good on Sunday in the Rain and Cold.

 

I was wise cracking that he just needed the degree of difficulty upped which got a big laugh from the guys.

1 and 3 can be fixed his size and hands make up for# 2.

 

Sometimes big guys don't look fast and have deceptive speed.

 

Well that's what I'm hoping. as long as he has good hands, 3rd is good for a big guy with good hands. He sounds more like a slot rather than a #1. So we still need a speed guy. That's Thompson I guess?

TT is going to love him in the RZ.

 

My only concern is that Benjamin's bread and butter seems to be the contested catch, as he's not really speedy enough to break away from a lot of corners...and TT doesn't like putting it up for grabs.

Great move...for once we are getting the better in trades and still got good draft picks..love this beane amd mcd combo

 

I wonder, when some of these recent trades were announced, how many GMs from other teams say/think "we could've got him for that?" ?

Wait, do we really only have two RBs on the roster? Is Jones still on the squad?

 

I'm holding my breath until he clears the medical.

 

I must admit that the thought of watching Gilmore having to go up against Benjamin twice this season has me semi-erect.

He used to for Sammy on the long balls. He'd put it up and let him go get it. Once the trust is there, and if the route is deep enough (which it should be), I'm hopeful he'll chuck it.
