My free agent prediction is Martellus Bennett

Last year I had a hunch and called Darren McFadden as our significant free agent pickup in January (believing we would not resign Demarco)... this year, I believe we will sign Martellus Bennett. I think Chicago lets him leave and we promise him a full time role in a 2 TE-based offense. With Witten declining (but still playing well), I think Bennett would be interested. On talent alone, he is top 5 at the position. If we can manage his head games, he could be a great heir apparent to Witten and infuse another inline good blocker and playmaker the offense sorely needs.

My secondary prediction is RB Lamar Miller, but he seems to be a hot name on everyone's radar... What's your free agent prediction?
 
That ship has sailed. He doesn't want to play second fiddle to a HOF and has too big of an ego that doesn't mesh well with said HOF.
 
I don't think he looks upon his time here too fondly and would not be interested in returning even if Witten was retiring
 
I had read in another thread that we shouldn't bring Brandon Marshall in because it would upset Dez.
Would bringing in Bennett upset Jason?

I don't think so - but I hope the organization isn't worried about hurting people's feelings.
 
Why would Chicago let Bennett leave or why would Bennett want to leave Chicago?
 
Until Witt retires bringing anybody in is a wasted roster spot....

Im getting the feeling your adverse to this idea, I could be wrong, but I have a suspicion your vote would be an emphatic NO! I think I'm with you.
 
Bennett doesn't like Witten, Romo, or Garrett, so you can forget about that one.
 
Why would Chicago let Bennett leave or why would Bennett want to leave Chicago?

and I'd assume the last place Bennett would want to come is Dallas. He has proven that we underutilized him, why would he sign to play second fiddle again?
 
Martellus, how'd you like to come back to Dallas and block all day long again?
 
I expect Bennett to sign in Seattle. The brothers have been wanting to play together and MartyB would like to win.

He wasn't at all happy being the best blocking TE in football here. No way he comes back unless we change coaches/schemes.
