My gut tells me that TT drafts Odell Beckham in the first round. He reminds me of Greg Jennings.

"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
After watching that video Zool just posted I disagree, he seems like he can locate the ball just fine. I agree he drops some easy passes but I like how after every drop he came back with a big play. I could be wrong but with his combination of size, strength and speed, I'm willing to gamble he'll be a stud on the right team.
TT won't like 10th ranked WR Kelvin Benjamin (6' - 5" and 240 lbs) as a prospective pick at #21. I predict that he's going to see 4-5 WR's come off the board ahead of him.
[/B]TT has many better options as a BPA on "D" and "WR".
WR prospect Kelvin Benjamin has these negative criticisms;
1. He doesn't run good routes yet. He'll take time to develop for useful gain in the NFL On top of this he runs a 4.61 40 yard dash and he's not strong with 13 rep's - bench.
See talk about a conversion to TE. Looking at film. Will he be a decent blocker? I see him as a project and our 1st Rd. pick needs to produce in 2014.
2. He catches the ball with his body.
3. He blows pass's and is especially weak on low throws (see his height)
4. He needs to get stronger. Bench = 13 reps.
5. Will he be a WR/TE tweener !? Ted Thompson won't consider a tweener in Rd.
It's my view that Kelvin Benjamin won't be TT's first round pick (at #21) in the 2014 draft.
