    Um, let me venture to guess. Ronnie Brown is better! This thread is ridiculous!

    Not sure why Ricky is a target..He made some great catches last season and he is still a good RB..
    Now with the improved O-line, lets wait and see ---

    You should have made it clear in your thread that you were talking about as a free agent, and not about drafting him over Ronnie Brown. That being said, I think Ricky was and is a better back than Benson.

    Cedric Benson has a 3.7 ypc average.
    I don't believe I have ever seen a RB as incompetent in avoiding contact then Benson.
    Not to mention his run in with Johnny Law when he uttered the famous words:
    "‘Sir, could you please allow me to walk like a man to your cop car?"


    In other words. He stinks and is trouble.

    at the time ricky was looking pretty good. It seems like benson may finally have his head on straight. looked good the last two games but a few games means little over a career
