for the money, not too bad. What the hell, isn't the worse signing they have made. If he still has anything he could get that passing game going again.
About as good of a landing spot for fantasy value as possible. He should be the #2 option in the passing game and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get more TDs than 85.................:xpopcorn:
This is a train wreck waiting to happen. First time they lose a game and one or the other feels he didnt get the ball enough, this train comes off the tracks and they miss the playoffs. On the other hand the build up til this happens will be humorous to watch.
First - injury. A.Bryant's knee may be more an issue...if so I could see a PUP situation, getting him back by week 6. This will then still allow Shipley or Caldwell some value early, but tail off completely after Bryant returns. Once Bryant is back, he takes the Henry roll for the deep threat...and alllow Ocho and Owens to roam the middle. I also see a huge decrease in Benson's production.
Second - Return to glory for passing game. Now if Bryant IS healthy, and can take Henry's roll early...then look for alot more first down passing and yards passing. With Benson only as the clock killer once they have achieved a lead. In this scenario, Benson's carries till drop...but the potential for good yardage as defenses open up to cover the pass could help. Still, I don't think Benson will do near what he did last year...especially with talk of more use of Bernard Scott.
I heard Rosenhaus on on NFL Network last night saying that the reason the Bengals said that they were interested in TO was because they were afraid Antonio Bryant would be injured this year.
