Have to wait and see on this 1. Bennett is a good talent but he disappointed me a little bit while he was on the Packers, wonder how he will do back with New England.

Dude is holding a knee that already has a huge brace on it, that can't be good.

12+ mil down the toilet for the Pack. To bad, they could've kept Cookie.

You're welcome. I'm just happy they didn't have to pay a team to take him from us. Big old slow injury prone with hands of stone.
He caught 75% of the passes TB threw him. Just sayin

He's hurt this year and Gronk is n't hurt. Not gonna be many passes to go his way. Coulnd't hurt in the run game though, if he can get on the field

Cook wouldn't have made a difference. Without Rodgers nobody is doing anything.

Need to see how bad this reported rotator cuff injury is?

I mentioned earlier even if he catches one TD as long as he can block he's worth the $700k. Brady's been running for his life. Hasn't had time to find his weapons. MB can help with all that assuming he can get on the field?

Teams will still need to account for him. NE runs the two TE set better than anyone.

Nothing to lose move for the Pats

With all their WR injuries, Bennett cant hurt

Yup I agree that it all depends on if he can get on the field, and now if the injury is exploited since it is known. If I know one arm is injured I'm going to go around on that side knowing he is limited.

Could be a good pick up or a waste of money. Isn't his contract for another 2 years at $6m each?

I always find it funny how NFL players aren't protected by the HIPAA laws, all in the interest of gambling, though the NFL will never admit that's the reason.

From what I read he gets a little over $400k prorated salary with some $300k bonus do this year. There is a $2M bonus due next season but if he's not given it he's a free agent.

Rodgers might have never been hurt with Cookie playing. Many things could've changed. At least Cookie would've been worth the money. I can't believe we got rid of the guy that was the MVP in the postseason for gb after Rodgers
