Thread: Bears' Bennett signs with new agents

Not sure bennett will ever be 'special".. but more your solid, 3rd down "go to" guy that all good teams needs.. not flashy.. gets 60-80 catches, 700-1,000 yards a year, nothing great, but also never bad or dissapears, and always solid.. which is what engram was..

I do hope that we can get a big name receiver in the offseason whenever free agency starts. Sidney Rice would be nice and he's young, but I could handle Malcolm Floyd despite his age.

far different, both knox and hester do dissapear at times, no assure hands as bennett.. and outside "flashy" WR's.. bennet as said more the inside and tough yards guy... knox and hester will get you the deep bomb's and 50+ catches.. bennett is the guy on 3rd and 5 and 3rd and 8 that knows where the chain is goes across middle, gets the firs down to continue drives.. not 'sexy" as the 50+ pass, but many times as meaningful in controlling clock and game..

Motto of the Wanny/McAsshat Bears; "Building the Team of the Future". Trouble is that it was always someone else's team they were building.

Case and point, did he not have the opportunity to take LaDanian Tomlinson in the first round of the 2001? Imagine what the Bears would have been like in 2001 when they won the division!

angelo didn't come here until august 2001, his first draft was 2002.. hatley was responsible for the 2001 draft and taking that turd david terrell..

So for every swipe ever taken at Angelo there should be three times that many taken at Hatley. Didn't he go to Arizona when he left here?
