He struggled at ASU last year with a bunch of freshman starting on the O-Line, but he was a beast the year before that. He never complained publicly about the crappy run blocking & still had some solid games... it clearly made his stock drop & he would've been drafted a lot higher if he had come out last year.

He'll be the 3rd RB on the team & better than DJ Foster in case of injuries.

Surprised he dropped so far. They need another RB so I guess it is a decent 7th round pick.

Slightly undersized three-down option with unorthodox running style that can keep everyone on the field guessing, including his own team. Benjamin thrives when runs go off schedule but also has a habit of taking them off schedule prematurely. His elusiveness is always on display, but he's a competitive, tough runner when it is time to get down. Benjamin needs a spread-based running game that allows for more space and freedom but must become more decisive as an NFL back. He offers value in a dual run-catch capacity on Day 2 (Rounds 2-3).

Eno Benjamin

5'9" 207 lbs Arizona State

Pre-Draft Analysis

Benjamin was a team captain who didn't test as well as expected, but his ability to shift gears jumps out on tape. He runs hard and flashes good contact balance so he picks up yards after contact even though he doesn't have a great powerbase. He has the tools to develop into a productive receiver but drops some passes. -- Steve Muench

IMO.... a reason to NOT draft him. #AgentsMatter

Can he:
1. PR?
2. KR?
3. Catch passes?
4. Pass Pro?
Appreciate any info. Seems like a perfect way to end the Draft.
