Bennett slipped because of his shoulder injury no?
I just don't see the upside with him, and as Jerry said maybe other teams just like other players more but Utah took Cooley a pick before, and he is tracking better.

You might be thinking of Michkov. According to Friedman, he had let it be known he wanted to go to the Flyers.
Did Bennett slide because of his shoulder? I doubt it. I know that’s a popular belief but I’m skeptical. Has that injury hampered his career? Not to my knowledge. I don’t think he’s had reoccurring shoulder issues. I think the most accurate thing to say is simply that the other teams had other players ranked higher. O need to squint and try to find reasons, such as uninformed’character issues’ which could mean basically everything and anything.
