Awesome news!! I agree with others' assessments that a change in scenery/culture may be just what he needs. So with that said...

Considering who Benhart grew into the last two years (our most dependable lineman) I’d say that it wouldn’t be that hard to do worse than Benhart.Can't be no worse than Benhart!
So Benhart played well? You must be watching a different team than I have.Considering who Benhart grew into the last two years (our most dependable lineman) I’d say that it wouldn’t be that hard to do worse than Benhart.
Here are the numbers according to ProFootball Focus:So Benhart played well? You must be watching a different team than I have.
just don't see the point of this post.Can't be no worse than Benhart!
BIG Get
Sorry he is not going to sniff the NFL! I am not disputing he was our highest graded lineman. Our line play improved later in year after we got better playcalling yes. I remember so many times Benhart got pushed all the way back to the qb on bull rushes. All the times he gave up critical sacks by just whiffing at a pass rusher.Here are the numbers according to ProFootball Focus:
Player/rank/grade
Benhart/104/73.5
Gottula/375/60.5
Scott/160/63.4
Evans/107/69.7
Lutovsky/73/71.7
Now I suspect that PFF also isn’t perfect. But I also suspect that they were watching the same games that you were. Benhart was our highest graded offensive lineman in 2024. Now I’m not saying that he played well his first two years. He didn’t. He took his lumps. But he developed into a very serviceable offensive lineman, really the highest graded lineman that we had. And he was the most consistent. I think he has a chance to get drafted. That’s what I saw this year. Maybe your memory of previous years is killing your objectivity.
I see neither the point nor the validity.just don't see the point of this post.

People saying how many sacks and pressures this guy allowed! Benhart wasn't much betterjust don't see the point of this post.
Every OL gets beat sometimes. Statistically speaking, he got beat less than his teammates did and he got beat less than most OTs in college football.Sorry he is not going to sniff the NFL!
