The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Bennett's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.

Career arc · VAL by season
7 seasons · peak 6.1 in 2002
VAL (Value Above League) measures each NFL season against that season's league; the dashed line is zero — a season that added nothing above the league's fringe. ● peak · ○ league-best season.
What he added · wins above replacement
0.7 career wins over 7 seasons · 1 win = 13.08 VAL
VAL 3.0 measures each part of a NFL player's game in his sport's own currency against what that season's fringe players produced, converted to team wins with rates fitted from every team-season in the encyclopedia.
Peak-aligned view: center line is each player's best Rush Yds season; left/right show build-up, staying power, and decline. Comparison set uses same-position, overlapping-era comps when available.
