Quote:As a late round pick I don't think his expectations were ever that high. I think it says something about how much they liked him that aside from a few weeks out with a sore ankle, he was consistently active. Instead they'd sit Chris Smith and Nick Marshall.

 

Bennett's expectations were most definitely high.

He was a guy that was touted as a "steal" in the 6th round, especially with Marks being out early on it was largely thought he would get an opportunity. Despite the injuries to Senn, and the team badly needing someone who can collapse the pocket from the interior (Bennett's strength), he never really developed a role.
