AL HAMNIK: Bears' Martellus Bennett ready to rewrite Bears tight end history

The media already loves him. They know they won't get any dry quotes from him. I'll reserve my thoughts till I see him play a couple games. I also posted a link under the best TE in the North thread, which gave WCG's thought s on him . Seem they like him too.

A facebook "Friend" in New York sent me this, regarding Bennett;
~
"As a Giant fan I got to watch him play. There was a point last year when he was involved in 90% of the Giants plays. He was banged up and hurt throughout the last part of the season though, but when healthy he is an every down TE. A real good player and should help the Bears a bunch."
~
He has GOT to be a vast improvement over what we have had lately at the position, as both a blocker and a receiver.
The last good receiving TE we had was Olsen, and we all know that a lack of blocking was the knock on him. He got shipped out in favor of the other extreme, -big blocking TE's (that weren't really even very good at that) that hardly ever were targeted in the passing game.

I think that we finally have a legitimate, well-rounded threat at the position.

This kid; Chicago Bears: Fendi Onobun

...has been getting some mention by local sports talkers too.

TE Bennett: "I'm solar powered"

If his productivity outpaces what other Bear TEs have done over the last several years, we Bear fans will be extremely happy.

More importantly, though, the Bears' offense will become more productive (assuming other factors on the offense remain constant)... And could translate into more opportunities to win games.

Bennett was a good signing makes up for the bust 4-5th rd pick we waisted last year
