Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
GM Jerry Angelo has reportedly ben enamored of Benson all along. A true workhorse in college, most observers believe Benson fits coordinator Ron Turner's new offense much better than incumbent Thomas Jones, whose 240 carries last season were almost twice as many as in any of his previous four NFL seasons. ... Benson carried 1,112 times during his college career, and his forte is pounding the ball between the tackles, whereas Jones is more of a slasher.
