Summary

Tight End Rank: #51   
Overall: #338

Bennet had 17 receptions in 14 games last season, getting sporadic work in the Cowboys' offense. In four seasons with the Cowboys, his career high in catches is 33. He gets a chance for a bigger role in New York this season, though. Bennett will get a chance to win the No. 1 tight end job, competing with Jake Ballard for that position. Bennett is the more gifted pass catcher so he might be the favorite for the job. Bennett is a huge target that is very athletic. He can make big plays because of his size and speed. Bennett isn't much of a blocker, though, and his work ethic has been questioned in the past.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Bennett is a top sleeper for the coming year. He really has a lot of potential but we wouldn't count on him as a surefire starter just yet. Make sure you have a legit backup plan. Consider Bennett a No. 2 with upside. The Giants don't have a great history of using the tight end of late, which hurts Bennett a little. Even with that said, he could get 600 or so yards and six touchdowns if all goes right for him.

Notes

2012-04-05 19:43:10
Dallas Cowboys TE Jason Witten said he believes New York Giants TE Martellus Bennett will fit well in the Giants' offense this season. 'I think he fits that offense in a lot of ways,' Witten said. 'I think his confidence was probably shaken a little bit in Dallas. Few plays, his numbers were limited, so I'm sure that's a part of it. He's a good blocker, he's a good underneath route runner, he's big so he can catch the ball. I think, more than anything, getting his confidence back and getting a fresh start will do a lot for his career. Definitely a lot of upside.'
Fantasy Impact: We wouldn't count on Bennett breaking out but it is possible. He certainly has the talent.
