His blocking and ability to catch the ball in traffic is second to none. There aren't enough balls to go around for our offensive weapons but it is a huge loss.
It's a terrible loss, no doubt. If a scout teamer hit him low, I say make that guy carry Bennett on his shoulders the rest of the season.
Thankfully we can do this: plug in Malcolm Mitchell. There . . . at least that's a LITTLE better.
Just returned from the VA, and this is not good news about Bennett. Never really know when an injury of this type is going to pop up. Tough man, fought for the ball, a true receiver, and the other side . . . Bennett would block downfield, and did a very good job of that.
I am with WoodstockDawg on this one. Chris Conley is not chopped liver. Great hands and big receiver. Almost turns my stomach to even mention a replacement with Bennett down. This is football though. Know that Conley and AM worked together in the off season, good thing.
