“I’m always talking to him on the field, too, trying to see what he wants,” Bennett said. “(I’ll say), ‘Hey, how did that look?’ or he’ll give me the thumbs up. Or if I’m in another group, I always look back at him, ‘Hey, is that what you want? Is there something different you want on this?’ Always trying to figure out, just trying to have those conversations on and off the field, trying to get know each other as players, and as people.”

Bennett is a MAJOR signing. I don't think fans realize what a difference maker he can be. He will be equal to any receiving AND blocking TE we have had in the Rodgers era. If MM designs this O correctly it will be nearly unstoppable. If House and King don't make an immediate impact it might have to be.

I remember Bennet being a 100 yard machine against the Packers. Will be nice to see if from he other side for once

Let's hope for chemistry between them.

He had almost 1000 yards from the TE position 1 year and that was with Smokin' Jay Cutler throwing to him. I agree it's a huge signing. That big of a target (6-6/275) might convince Arod not to hold onto the ball so long. Throw it up and let him go get it.
