Florida State Wide Receiver Kelvin Benjamin visited Philadelphia yesterday as the Eagles look to replenish their wide receiving group.
Benjamin, the monster 6'5", 240-pound wide out fits Eagles coach Chip Kelly's mold of "big people beat up little people." The Florida native enters the NFL draft after three seasons in Tallahassee and is poised to be chosen in the first two rounds of the NFL draft.
As a redshirt sophmore, the 23-year old helped FloridaState win the National Championship and recorded the game-winning score for the Seminoles. On the season, he caught 54 passes for 1,011 yards and 15 touchdowns. During his collegiate career, Benjamin recorded 84 receptions for 1,506 yards and 19 touchdowns and was named 3rd team All-ACC last season.
The wide receiver recorded a 4.61 forty-yard dash time at the combine.
