PLAYSTYLE AND SCHEME FIT
In terms of scheme fit at the NFL level, Benton would likely be best suited for a defense that runs a 3-4 or 4-3 base alignment, as he has experience playing both nose tackle and defensive end. He has the strength and size to be an effective run-stopper in a two-gap system, while also possessing enough athleticism to provide some pass rush from the interior.

FINAL REPORT
Benton is a former wrestler who understands how to use leverage to win at the point of attack, which is essential for a lengthy 6-4 315lb interior defender. His ability to control a blocker and hold his gap in the run game will be a tremendous asset in the NFL. Benton Projects as a 0/1 technique (NT) at the next level.
