PatsPatsPats Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 This guy has Ryan Leaf written all over him, how much longer can you hope for this guy to do ANYTHING? and I don't believe MJD is a bust but is there any hope for him this year as well?

No fair comparing anyone to Leaf. I think he has Tony Mandarich written all over him. Or maybe Heath Shuler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking more along the lines of Curtis Enis. Bears fans will remember him fondly I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same two as the #1 & #2 RBs on one of my teams . . . they are officially benched and have alot of splaining to do before they get back into the lineup.

alexgaddis Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Last year I offered a guy in my local dynasty league Edge and a 2nd rounder for Benson... Thank god he said no... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD6405 Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 I got benson on a trade just because it came with Hasselbeck and Burress....Hopefully he can do something, but I have to start him right now since my other options to start over him is just Pittman. Hopefully Rudi Johnson will come back healthy, and that sneaky deal to get K. Jones will work out (i shipped off Carnell Williams 3 days before he got hurt and got K. Jones as part of the deal).

Earlier this week someone in a dynasty league mentioned that they wanted Santonio Holmes, and that Benson would be available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Benson is quickly becoming a bust and there are many reasons for it. First of all, he was expected to be handed the job, and when he wasn't, he did not endear himself to his team mates. Whenever there was a microphone stuck in his face, he came across sounding like a big ass baby prima donna. He fumbles, can't block the blitz, and falls down at first contact. Terrible first round pick by the Bears when they could have had Derrick Johnson off the same college team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad that didn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson would be playing Hillenmeyer's spot right now....Briggs/Urlacher/Johnson would have been a trio talked about for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguinsfan Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 I was just offered Cedric Benson in a trade..... ......for Andre Johnson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disfunction Junction Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 In the end I think its the lack of blocking and no passing game to speak of thats holding him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wide-Eyed Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) Peterson seems like a good option for them, but it means they pretty much have to admit they were wrong about Benson and Jones. Maybe not this week since Peterson is fighting off an injury, but it sure would not surprise me at all if Peterson became the starter at some point this season.

Which is exactly why I picked him up this offseason in hopes that woudl happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

URLACHERisGOD Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Wow, can you imagine Urlacher and Derrick Johnson lining up together? Glad that didn't happen. I was livid when Chicago drafted Benson. Johnson was available and I was stoked. When they drafted Benson, all I could think was, "right school...wrong guy".

And I was jumping up and down when DJ lasted until the 15th pick, he was the guy I wanted with the pick but thought no way he'd slide that far.
