Bennett's size hurts him but when he went on a bender and told the police "do you know who I am" it made many of the media pundits downgrade him. Certainly, the bender and attitude were a bad look but we are also talking about a guy with true leadership attributes. He was the leader on a team that had great individual talent. I think at the end of the day that is what the Rams looked at and not an indiscretion of a young guy going out and getting drunk and mouthing off with the liquor doing the talking.
You can't fix 5'11" but you sure can make sure you don't go out and get trashed in public again.
