Title: Drew Bennett, Tyrone Calico
Post by Cirrinone on Apr 29th, 2003, 6:41am
What you think of Drew Bennett? Will he start this year? I want him as sleeper material. Also, will Tyrone Calico start along with him? Just wondering what you all think, 'cause Bennett is #1 on their team site's depth chart, and Tyrone Calico, I assume, would start over the no-names on there.

Drew Bennett could be a sleeper pick, but I don't know who's better, him or Justin McCareins as a #2.  I'd be hesitant to draft any of the WRs besides Derrick Mason.  I also think Derrick Mason's stock has dropped because of the lack of a legit #2 opposite him.

Tyrone Calico has the tools, but he's not an NFL starter yet.  He'll probably make the team as their #4 receiver.  Don't bother drafting him, even in a keeper league - he's too far away.

Bennett could be a decent sleeper! Mason still should post solid numbers. He may face more double coverages this year though! They proved to be more of a passing team last year for the first time in a long time! I think that trend will continue!

Feel free to continue the discussion, but no more really needs to be said, and this is coming from a guy who tends to be, well, just a little... wordy! [smiley=awwgee.gif]

Great concise and precise analyses, Philly, PA! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Bennett and McCariens haven't done anything to impress Jeff Fisher, which is why he's been platooning them in the third WR slot.

Calico is a home stater that will put a few more fans in the seats.  With the loss of Dyson, Tennessee will be looking for that big bodied WR that never really materialized in Carl Pickens and that Pittsburgh WR (sorry...brainfart).  Being the possession-based coach that Fisher is, I can see Calico getting time in as the #2 sooner than you think.

Value is pretty small in a redraft league, but in a keeper/dynasty league, this kid may be worth a look at.  He's a perfect compliment to Mason, ala Burress/Ward.
