Travis Benjamin at Cleveland Browns rookie minicamp

Fourth-round pick Travis Benjamin, regarded as one of the fastest men in the NFL Draft, had a so-so first practice.

On one deep route down the left sideline, he was matched stride for stride by undrafted rookie cornerback Johnson Bademosi.

On another, down the right sideline, second-year hopeful David Sims tracked Weeden’s bomb better than Benjamin did, running under the ball while Benjamin pulled up.

Putting up too little fight on possible interceptions was one of the knocks on Benjamin.

Benjamin said he is getting his timing down.

“Hopefully, I’ll have it by the second practice,” he said.

Shurmur gave Benjamin a pass for dropping a couple of balls, saying, “Let’s not go there yet.”
