OK, but first, how many special teams aces do the Bears need and at what point do you need to have backs that have talent running the ball?

I'm convinced that Benson at least has the talent and his performance in 2006 seems to bear that out. I don't think Wolfe or AP have that talent.

Plus, AP is a great special teamer.  I think the ONLY reason Benson is still
here is cause of the cap hit.

I would agree that AP is not going anywhere. I think in limited duty, with
the right play calling, Wolfe could still be a factor. He had some nice runs
on screens at the end of the year.
Benson getting cut? Very interesting.
