Former Florida State football running back Trey Benson has taken a top-30 visit with multiple NFL Franchises such as the Dallas Cowboys, the New York Giants, the Buffalo Bills, and most recently the Cleveland Browns, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 (Houston NBC affiliate).

Chad Reuter – Draft analyst for NFL.com – has Benson going 70th overall to the New York Giants in his latest mock draft.

In this prediction, the former FSU RB would be the fourth running back selected behind Jonathan Brooks (pick 24, Dallas Cowboys), Blake Corum (pick 37, Los Angeles Chargers), and Jaylen Wright (pick 62, Baltimore Ravens).

Of the four teams that have held top-30 visits with Benson, their draft picks are as follows:

Cowboys – 24, 56, 87, 174, 216, 233, 244

Giants – 6, 47, 70, 107, 166, 183

Bills – 28, 60, 128, 133, 144, 160, 163, 200, 204, 248

Browns – 54, 85, 156, 206, 243

Some movement could occur on draft day from these squads should they make an effort to change their positioning in order to select Benson.

The FSU RB was officially listed at 6’0”, 216 pounds. He ran a 4.39 40-yard dash and was given a total score of 80 for his 2024 Combine RB rank, first amongst running backs, per NFL.com.

During his career in Tallahassee, Benson had over 2,450 all-purpose yards and 24 touchdowns in two seasons with the Seminoles.

He transferred from Oregon in January of 2022. There he appeared in nine games and only got six carries with one touchdown.

 Florida State went 23-4 with Benson as the primary ball carrier.
