    Yep. Plus, Benjamin vs Bryant isn't an apples to apples comparison. Steelblood was comparing the two, but Benjamin was MUUUCH more heralded coming out than Bryant was.

    I always find it funny how people are viewed. Here's an article from the Panthers Bleacher Report page saying Benjamin could still be BOOM or BUST because of his frequency of dropped passes.

    Benjamin is all Boom... no bust. He has drop issues but scouts knew he had drop issues and its why he went 28th.

      That's kinda my point. That article is from the Panthers page. Just shows how some view the same exact player/issue differently.

          Haha I'm sure. The ones who wanted to draft him probably have already sent the guy to Canton, while the ones who didn't want to draft him can't shut up about his drops.

            For reference -

            Antonio Brown didn't really do much his rookie year until December. Didn't even play in most of the games before then (played 9 games on the season). Look at him now.

            (Not saying Bryant will be anywhere near as good as Brown, just that even the guy who may be the best receiver in the NFL didn't come in as a rookie and hit the ground running.)

              The only people who call in are the people who didn't want him or weren't sold on him. Same for Cam Newton and Kuechly...

              its rare to hear fans call in to support a first round pick because most people always have another guy as their 1st rdr.

              so its usually "I wasn't sold but now I'm a fan" or "I'm still not sold on him"
