Bennett’s development and handling by the team actually reminds me a lot of Galchenyuk. That can be a bad thing but there’s also a chance it’s a good thing, it really depends on how things move forward.
Either way, I think it’s far far too early to make definitive claims about what Bennett is or isn’t, and to state his potential is dried up. At newly 21 I’m still confident he has plenty of time. He won’t be the first top 5 pick not to make an impact right away, and he won’t be he last. He’s not even the only one in his draft class. I’m happy to wait, I like the good things he’s shown, and I think the bad is still coachable.
