I think it's reasonable to question how the process is going at that position. Especially when you consider that some of the guys that left are doing very well on their new teams. Reasonable. After such a short period of time. You and I have different standards for what’s reasonable, I think.

If a 0% hit rate over two drafts and free agency periods doesn't create any questions for you then you an I do indeed have different expectations. 1
HOUSE Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 The guy has to sit. BIG drops every week now

While that doesn't kill the process I think that it does call into question how highly they rate the position. They came out of 2017 woefully weak at the position and they entered 2018 woefully weak at the position. Did they try to retain Bob Woods? Publicly they certainly did not. They passed on players in both drafts (Cupp comes to mind). Now, they have boat loads of money so let's see how the process works.

Hope so. The Process was derailed a bit by last season's moderate success (it created expectations). Money is tight. Money has been dumped. We should see a deeper roster in 2019 & if they use that money wisely The Process will play out successfully.
GG Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Sad that the guy that Benjamin essentially replaced can't even make it on the Steelers' active squad.
EricMoulds80 Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 He is such a disappointment. The TD pass that he dropped this past Sunday made me so angry. 1

Kelly the Dog Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Kelvin is not playing for the Benjamins.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Apparently he only gets up for preseason games vs panthers. It was easily his best game in a Bills jersey ever.

frogger Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 I wonder what Allen would look like with the offensive weapons Tyrod was given his first year in Buffalo. reminder, Percy Harvin, Watkins, Woods, Goodwin and 7/11, with Clay and Shady...oh and the Oline was considered much better. It makes me sad to think we had all that talent and got nothing out of it, except disappointment. 1
Augie Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Kelvin may not be a #1 WR, but he is our #1 dropper of footballs. So....he’s a leader, still. 1

Captain Caveman Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 I kind of wish we had just kept another TE and started using guys like Croom, Lee and O'Leary in place of Benjamin.

No way I sign him to a big deal. He wasn't considered a number #1 receiver when he was traded for. At best, the hope was that he could be a good #2 receiver for a team with a dearth of talent within that unit. If he re-signs with the Bills (and I doubt he will) it will be for an average cost of a second receiver. Maybe it is his knees but he seems very sluggish. And as you noted he just doesn't seem very into the games. Without question his value as a player is very diminished. I don't see where he fits with this team.
