I’ve heard of ‘directional’ schools before, schools like Eastern Washington, Western Michigan, South Alabama, and others like that.

I’ve never heard of a multi-directional school with no state attached to the name before.

Trinity Benson played his college ball at East Central in Oklahoma, and how on earth did the Broncos manage to find this kid?

He put together a pretty outstanding pro day with a 4.44 in the 40-yard dash at 5-foot-11, 182 pounds with 15 bench press reps and a huge 40.5-inch vertical jump. He also posted a 6.87 in the three-cone drill.

Again, what’s in the water at East Central?

This guy was used all over the field. You see him coming on end-around plays, out of the slot, on the outside, as a punt returner, and off the edge in punt block formation.

Next. 2019 NFL Draft grades for all 32 teams. dark

If he can be a weapon on special teams and as a returner in addition to providing some big play potential offensively, he could have the biggest impact of any UDFA for the Broncos in 2019.
