Fuck didn't we have a whole fucking thread on this where I explained my decision about this guy? I said he was a player that would fit in the Packers system. Seems you don't listen very well.Originally posted by PartialDidn't you call him the first rounder, though?Originally posted by Deputy NutzPatrick Lee. Gee who called that one?

Cowboys take Bennett, TE
Strengths: Has a massive frame, including long arms and big hands. Former basketball player for two seasons at A&M; he's aathletic for his size. Knows how to get a clean release when linebackers try to jam him at the line, does a good job of tracking the ball downfield and, while doesn't have elite speed, is fast enough to stretch the seam a little bit. Appears to read defenses well and locates seams when working against zone coverage. Uses wide frame to shield defenders from the ball and can make tough catches in traffic. Snatches the ball out of the air and flashes the ability to pick up yards after contact so can produce after the catch. Shows good focus, has adequate body control and can adjust to passes thrown outside frame. Fights for the ball while it's in the air and is capable of coming down with the ball in most jump ball situations. Has experience lining up flexed to the outside, size caused matchup problems for defensive backs and is somewhat versatile. Works from the snap until the whistle and flashes the ability to sustain blocks. Does a fairly good job of staying low considering how tall he is and can get under defenders' pads. Shows adequate lateral mobility and can seal the edge. Takes adequate angles to blocks and can get into position at the second level.
Weaknesses: Takes too long to change directions, doesn't explode out of cuts and is going to have a harder time separating from man coverage at the NFL level. Isn't going to make many defenders miss, lacks breakaway speed and isn't much of a big-play threat. Lacks elite foot speed and has a harder time beating press coverage when lines up outside. Doesn't show great lower body strength, doesn't always get good hand placement and is going to have problems driving two-gap defensive ends off the ball. Durability is not really a concern but he did miss 2007 Nebraska game with an ankle injury.
Overall: Bennett started five of the 11 games he appeared in during his true freshman season in 2005. He started all 13 games of the 2006 season recording 38 catches, 497 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns. Bennett started 12 games during the 2007 season recording 49 receptions, 587 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns. Bennett lacks explosiveness and strength elite of an elite prospect, but he has the frame, toughness, and hands to develop into a starting tight end in the NFL. He also is a smooth athlete with adequate speed for his size. Bennett projects as a third-round pick.

I wasn't too thrilled with Rodgers or Harrell, and I just said NO!!!!! about Brohm.Originally posted by RastakOriginally posted by texaspackerbackerOK, I can stand Lee. The way Godfrey is falling, maybe Lee is better.
Have you ever disagreed with a pick once made?
How can any of us seriously dispute ANYTHING Thompson does, though?What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
