Bennett ready for breakout: The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Rams WR Drew Bennett, who signed a six-year, $30 million free-agent deal last year, joins Torry Holt in the starting lineup after the February release of 35-year-old Isaac Bruce. "Drew's got an opportunity now to really step up his game, and he knows that," coach Scott Linehan said. "So, the expectation is that he takes advantage of it and has a great year for us." Last year, Bennett's first with the Rams, he had 33 catches for 375 yards with three scores. He wound up missing the season opener with a quad injury, which lingered through the season, but he feels better now. (Updated 06/04/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Bennett will compete with Holt, Reche Caldwell and rookie Donnie Avery for catches, but Bennett has a chance to be a decent red-zone target. Don't plan on drafting Bennett in 2008, but he could be a useful addition off the waiver wire if he plays well in place of Bruce as a starter. (Updated 06/04/2008).
