The problem is that this guy has never had his head on straight and Texas is where he got into his latest trouble?
This could simply mean that the Texans are the only ones who have returned his calls.
That occurred to me too. I don't pretend to have any insightful read upon the Benson situation. I just think there's scant chance of him emerging anywhere as a fantasy contributor.
Why not? We had 4 when we drafted Steve Slaton......why not cloud the DEN, errrr, I mean HOU backfield even more by taking on Benson? That would make a bunch of worthless RBs on one team that might equate to one legit RB when the season is finished.Ahman? He'll surprise me if he plays in 8 games.Chrissy? Runs hard........gets hurt too muchDarius? Who knows what we have in himCTaylor? Who knows what we have.....always injuredAdding Benson to the mix?
Maybe if he was clearly better than the rest of the bunch, it might be worth taking on a head case like Benson. However, he is no better than the crap they already have. Plus, i think they took Slaton because he has the potential to be better than the rest, Benson does not.Why not?

That's why I suggest his career is on such a poor path. At the same time, perhaps the reason he got into trouble down in Texas was some sort of misguided idea that he needed to make his time there with friends (the gang, the posse, whatever terminology he might use) really count because it was at a premium. He's clearly going to go back down there one way or another. Maybe by playing down there his life could normalize somehow. That's what I'm thinking.
The jail only allowed him one call and it had to be local.
Rogers doesn't really belong on that list. He just couldn't stay healthy.
Isn't it true that Benson has also had his struggles in that area?
Sure he does. He sucked when he came back from injuries. Drugs was the reason this guy busted, not the two clavical injuries.

I'd send him to Alaska to be on the Deadliest Catch.
Here is the thread started by a poster. The site itself did not "report" the rumor, but it was the first public place where the rumor manifest itself. http://texanstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51343sholditch said:Gopher State said:
