Illinois· 6'1"· 219 lb· 4.57s 40
A West Coast timing-based passing attack that prioritizes route running, YAC, and short-to-intermediate targets over deep threats.
Year 1 as a rotational boundary X-receiver, eventually developing into a reliable, high-volume target on possession downs.
An Air Raid or vertical-heavy spread offense where his deep speed limitations would be exposed.
Benn's physicality and route-running acumen make him a solid fit for schemes that value contested catches and YAC, despite his average deep speed.
Selected #39 overall in Round 2 of the 2010 NFL Draft by Tampa Bay Buccaneers out of Illinois.
