i agree...stecker looked good last year. it seemed like haslett wanted to force a power running attack.
stecker can be a great weapon. scenario: stecker and bush lined up in the backfield...bush motions to right slight...stecker motions to left slot...this equals nightmare for the LBs!!! heck you could have all three (including Deuce) in the backfield and just keep Deuce in the backfield while spliting the other 2 out as WR....make a power formation into a passing formation. |

Hey.....at least we got something for him, instead of following our MO of letting him go for nothing.

As I said, it would have helped us keeping him around this year more than having Kc's 4th rounder next year , I'm still a little worried about Deuce but I think he's be OK but you just never know coming off an injury as Deuce had last season..
I hope we don't regret the Bennett deal with KC . |

Did anyone pick up on Mickey Loomis' comments about treating players the "Right Way"? If they have a chance to have significant playing time elsewhere theycould do so. (Paraphrase)
He may have Known/Suspected Reggie could come our way and signed Bennett knowing/had a hunch if things went our way with drafting Reggie we had a chip(Bennett) in our pocket. Stranger things have happened. |
