If there was any lingering doubt as to his status as a bust. Personally, I would have inked Forte before cutting Benson... if I were going to wait this long. This is a year too late IMO.

Love the mug shot - what an ahole...

kdissette · 06-09-2008, 06:24 PM

i say we take him on a 2yr deal so we can at least see what he can do in our offensive scheme. The guy can run he is just young and keeping the wrong crowd around him. We could get him for peanuts.

Ratboy · 06-09-2008, 06:40 PM

Shanahan won't even give him a shot.

Yeah because this has worked the last 3,000 guys that have had issues. Just say no to Flavor Clowns. The wrong crowd can follow him pretty easily.

400HZ · 06-09-2008, 06:49 PM

First round bust with character issues?

Los Broncos · 06-09-2008, 06:55 PM

Sounds like our kind of guy....

Killericon · 06-09-2008, 07:08 PM

Maybe him and Chris Henry will land in the same spot...

Jail.

We won't even look at him but flava clowns can pan out. I'm all for having good guys on and off the field but sometimes the talent isn't there.

broncosteven · 06-09-2008, 07:58 PM

He and Travis Henry will be competeing for the Tronto Argonauts rb position

Is that the same team Phillips and Williams played for?

Not sure about Phillips but I think Williams did.

tonngo0 · 06-09-2008, 08:33 PM

Well same team that Young play for too.

Shanahan must be salivating about now!

I don't think we would be interested in Benson simply because Benson isn't much of a receiving threat and he's never been a cut-back runner. In other words, even if he was a model citizen, his running style is not cut out for this offense.

NO,NO and ........ NO.

NO FLAVA CLOWNS.

Atlas · 06-09-2008, 09:26 PM

He fits the Broncos system perfectly. I'm just saying.

yerner · 06-09-2008, 09:37 PM

he really didnt prove himself to even be all that talented in chicago. only thing he had was the contract and draft pick on his resume.

Bob's your Information Minister · 06-09-2008, 09:42 PM

If Shanahan gives this clown a contract it should be grounds for immediate dismissal.

FireFly · 06-09-2008, 09:46 PM

There is no way we bring him in. I just don't see it happening.

And would be really annoyed with the guy making the decisions if we did.

But my money is that he won't get another job in the league right away.

Maybe after the season has started and someone goes down, maybe not in 2008.

I can't think of very many teams that would be desperate enough to take him on board with all his issues.

Ain't that the friggin truth.

I'm sure Jerry Jones will give him a close look.
