Florida State WR Kelvin Benjamin is one of the top wide receiver prospects in the NFL Draft, but he will be dropping off some draft boards for his most recent actions. According to Gil Brandt, Benjamin blew off a workout with an NFL Coach who had made a special trip out to see him because he was TIRED. Who does this!?! What was he doing? Did he stay up too late playing PS4?

Benjamin has been talked about as one of the top receiver prospects in this draft, but something like this is going to haunt him. Who is going to want an attitude like that on their roster? All of these prospects are fighting for jobs and he is going to pass up an opportunity to impress a coach because he is tired? That is inexcusable.

Benjamin already had some red flags going into the draft about some work ethic and attitude issues, but this tops it all off. Benjamin wouldn’t even be on my draft board for doing this. Scratch him off of the list for that stupid move. Some other team can try to develop him into a good player with a good attitude.
