Not if you've seen enough of them on film. And Benson's got enough film out there showing his ability level.

Combined with all his other negatives, I think a team would have to be pretty desperate to bring him in even for a look-see, as you're also sending a message by bringing in a guy with those character issues. There's a reason he wasn't even getting tryouts until the Bengals who were the perfect storm for him with the combination of not caring about character and the horrific season so far for Chris Perry.

Benson is not worth the baggage he brings with him.

i didn't think we were past the point of not needing to look at all options when the benson bit came around...but i'm glad they didn't.

Moates had a nice little run there towards the end of the Bengals game. He might not be a bad back to keep around as Slaton's backup whenever Green inevitably goes down for the season.

Green is just so obviously running out his string, doing only just enough to make them want to keep him around another week.

Didn't Green reportedly suffer a thigh bruise last week...or did I just assume that he has to be hurt by now?

I was going to say that I hope that Walker and Taylor stayed in town, but I just noticed we signed DD Terry to the practice squad. 6'1" 190 lbs. 1st year from Sam Houston....that all I know.
