While Darius remains uncommitted, his work ethic and hunger to improve make him a standout prospect.

Returning for his senior year after an extremely successful junior season, Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin 5'10" | 170 lbs | WR Cedar Creek | 2025 State NJ is that weapon on the outside that balances out Cedar Creek’s run game. A receiver with exceptional concentration and hand-eye coordination, Darius showed time and time again that he can stay composed with defenders in the vicinity and come down with the ball in traffic. If you want to be a dangerous downfield threat, you need to be able to track the ball well and adjust on the fly. That is exactly what Darius can do. However, with the speed Darius has off of the line there are times when he has no one around him because he beat his man right from the start of the play. Darius may not be the tallest or biggest receiver, but he can play a pivotal role in an offense he lines up for. Racking up 683 yards and 6 touchdowns in 2023, look for Darius to take control of the pass game and exceed those numbers in 2024.

Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin 5'10" | 170 lbs | WR Cedar Creek | 2025 State NJ , a 5’9”, 160-pound wide receiver from Cedar Creek, exemplifies toughness and tenacity. His standout trait? Creating yards after the catch. While he possesses the speed to outrun defensive backs, his physicality and contact balance set him apart. His vision to find open lanes is remarkable.

Darius’s style of play reminds many of a high school version of Steve Smith. He excels in making contested catches despite his size. With the departure of Cedar Creek’s top weapons, including Lane Parks and quarterback Billy Smith, Darius will be the focal point of the offense. He’ll be heavily relied upon to produce significant receiving yards.

We expect Darius to surpass 1,000 yards this season. The challenge will be developing chemistry with a new quarterback. Nonetheless, his senior year promises to be exciting.

Darius Benjamin, from Cedar Creek High School, is a wide receiver who consistently catches the eye whenever he takes the field. Whether it’s in 7-on-7 competitions or during actual game time, Benjamin’s performance demands attention. One of his standout qualities is his reliability in contested situations, where he excels at securing catches amidst traffic and tight coverage. This reliability, combined with his tenacity at the catch point, makes him a formidable threat in the passing game.Despite not receiving the same level of recognition as some of his peers, Benjamin possesses a deceptive burst of speed that catches opponents off guard. What sets him apart is his astute understanding of how to utilize his speed effectively, employing changes in tempo to create separation and exploit one-on-one matchups down the field. This strategic approach to his speed allows him to consistently beat coverage and make big plays for his team.Drawing comparisons to the likes of Steve Smith—a player known for his aggressive playstyle and physicality—Benjamin embodies similar traits, albeit with room for growth in route running and blocking. As Cedar Creek transitions following the departure of standout wide receiver Alim Parks Alim Parks Alim Parks 6'0" | 180 lbs | WR Cedar Creek | 2024 State NJ  Benjamin is poised to step into a more prominent role within the offense. With expectations high for the upcoming season, all eyes will be on Benjamin as he looks to make a significant impact and cement his status as a top playmaker in New Jersey football.

A receiver that I believe will receive much more attention this offseason, Cedar Creek’s Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin Darius Benjamin 5'10" | 170 lbs | WR Cedar Creek | 2025 State NJ is one of the most skilled receivers our state has to offer. Darius’ catch abilities and catch radius is a problem for every defense he faces. He is able to track the ball extremely well and can maneuver his body in a way to make the difficult catch look easy. With elite speed, quick change of direction, and the ability to outjump the competition, Darius is a presence in the endzone that will go unmatched in 2024. Racking up 683 yards and 6 touchdowns last fall, look for him to put up some astonishing numbers next season.

If teammate Billy Smith Billy Smith Billy Smith 5'11" | 170 lbs | QB Cedar Creek | 2024 State NJ was a top performing quarterback last week, it is certain he had a receiver who broke out in a big way. Typically we know that receiver to be Alim Parks Alim Parks Alim Parks 6'0" | 180 lbs | WR Cedar Creek | 2024 State NJ ; however, lining up opposite Parks is Benjamin, a junior, who made it known he is no slouch. He technically had his coming out party week 0 against Matawan (6/161/3), but he followed up that output during week 2 with a 4 catch, 147 yard performance. With this game breaking ability, his longest catch of the day went for 58 yards. He carried the rock once for 11 yards.
