2012 Outlook: Bye Week Fill-in

Last updated on Aug-11-2012 by Daniel Kalles

One of the 'big' Giants off season moves was to bring in Martellus Bennett, the underachieving former 2nd round pick of the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants are hoping that the main reason for Bennett underachieving was due to the fact that he played behind Jason Witten. With New York's primary 2011 options out with injury or elsewhere, Bennett will get every chance to be the starter. Regardless, his fantasy status is that of a backup or bye week fill in.

UPDATE (8-11): Despite a reported a slow start to camp, Bennett looked good in the Giants first pre-season game. That's a nice trend After seeing what Manning was able to do with Kevin Boss and Jake Ballard, don't be surprised if Bennett becomes a relevant TE as well. He has more talent than the last two guys, so there is definitely some upside there.
