It's amazing home much rope high draft picks get. Obviously the potential is there, but if Bennett was a 5th rounder with zeros across the board 15 games into the season, he probably wouldn't still be on the roster.
Teams often claim meritocracies, but they really aren't.
*I'm not saying they should bench or trade or send Bennett down. The potential is there and obviously that's huge. Just saying 1st round picks get a lot of rope*
