Cedric Benson (1 Viewer)

I think he's going to have an impact. I just don't think it's the type of impact that you're looking to have on your fantasy roster.

 
He can't be any worse that Rudi.

K Smith is the only Detroit RB with value, and it's not much if the team is down 3 TDs early in each game.

 
The irony is that Kevin Jones now plays for the Bears and Benson may play for Detroit. Which RB would you rather have? If the Lions did actually sign Benson, this may go down as the worst personnel move ever made by Matt Millen and that's saying a lot. Benson is complete garbage. Teams like Houston which desparately need help at RB didn't even give this guy a look and he's from Texas.

 
He could have an impact in short yardage and goal line love...thereby rendering Kevin Smith nearly worthless.
I don't believe that Cedric was all that successful at the goal line in Chicago. I may be wrong but I thought they tried that and went back to TJones....
 
According to the Lions, they didn't sign Benson.

Even if he did sign with a team, wouldn't he be likely to face a suspension from Goodell from his incidents over the summer?

 
It is strange to think that if we were to look at this situation just 2-3 years ago we never would have thought that Jones would be playing for Chicago and Benson would be playing for Detroit and both having none to limited value.

 
per Rotoworld,

The Detroit Free Press has confirmed that a report claiming free agent Cedric Benson would sign with the Lions is inaccurate.

The former No. 4 overall pick remains unemployed and may remain so until a desperate team incurs injuries. Benson will be on Detroit's "watch list."
