The Draft Network reported this weekend that the Buffalo Bills met with an interesting playmaker at the 2020 Senior Bowl, running back Eno Benjamin.
Buffalo could use another running back heading into 2020. TJ Yeldon seldom cracked the team’s roster while veteran Frank Gore is slated to become a free agent. Plus, his production dipped late in the year.
Benjamin could be targeted as a mid-round pick, but he’s not “interesting” because of his position, rather he’s intriguing because he’s not quite the type of back many would peg for the Bills.
Buffalo already has an undersized runner in Devin Singletary and at 5-foot-10 and 200 pounds, Benjamin’s not the biggest guy out there, either. Benjamin does have some power to his game, but he’s more of an outside the tackles runner, instead of a player that goes through the hole inside.
The Arizona State product had 1,083 rushing yards and 4.3 yards per carry last season with 10 scores on the ground. He added two more scores on 45 catches as well.
Jordan Reid from The Draft Network said Benjamin called his meeting with the Bills “great.”
