The Facts: Benjamin looks to have worked his way back into shape.

Diehards Line: Whatever Benjamin tipped the scales at in April -- Ron Rivera says it wasn’t 280 pounds, although he might have been touching 270 -- the fourth-year wideout seemed to get the message Rivera sent publicly after the draft. But as the Observer suggests, Benjamin needs to show up for training camp looking like he did the final day of minicamp, when he reached down to pluck a pass a couple inches off the grass and got both feet inbounds. The Panthers added speed and versatility with first two picks Christian McCaffrey and Curtis Samuel. But Benjamin’s length makes him a valuable target for Newton, especially in the red zone.
