I agree on Arizona.
I'd start Betts in San Fran over Kevan Barlow, though they just drafted Frank Gore who has to get a look. But Betts would be my guy right now.
You'd have to consider Betts to be at least in the mix in Minnesota (Michael Bennet, Ciatrick Fason, Mewelde Moore, Moe Williams).
I think Betts could challenge Reuben Droughns in Cleveland. Droughns is nothing special, just a product of that Denver system.
And in Tennessee, Chris Brown should certainly be the starter when healthy, but he just broke his hand, so I'll bet the Titans wouldn't mind a Ladell Betts.
But I do agree, he did overstate it. That's hardly a "slew" of teams, it's mostly a bunch of maybes.
