Bring Back Rand!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Where the fuck is Prof Rand? It’s been over a year; his ego still battered? Has he devolved into Jaire? Whatever. This thread is actually about Rand Cobb.

The Packers ain’t have a bona fide slot man since they idiotically allowed Cobb to walk the walk of life. 1st round rookie receivers usually aren’t primed for prime time, so what makes y’all think the 3rd round rook and his 5.37 40 will be able to dash out anything more than punt return yardage?

Cobb remains a bona fide NFL slot man. If 12 is Air and 17 is Pip and 2021 is the Last Dance, then Cobb back in the Green and Musta Yellow would be Steve Kerr. When it’s 4th and 3 in the clutch, Cobb would provide the Pack with a crucial 3.

Plus, Cobb is perfect for the role of the jet sweeper.

I'd rather have Amari Rodgers - better at a tiny fraction of the price.

It’s 4th and 3 with Super Bowl 56 on the line, who would you rather have on the field, Cobb or the rookie?

Today’s the first day of the Last Dance. The rookie is gonna need time to blossom. 12 doesn’t have a lot of time left.

Bring back Cobb.

I loved Randall Cobb and thought his utility was underutilized in GB, but does he have any quicks left? I'd bet as smart as Cobb is, Amari would be better on short-yardage sweeps and screens in Fall 2021.

I will answer that question in the post season. What if amari is the rare rookie wr who is good in his 1st season? Then I take him in a heart beat over Cobb.

[texaspackerbacker]

The only reason I would consider bringing back Cobb is if it was done to please Rodgers, and only then if it led to a long term deal.

[call_me_ishmael]

Sounds like it's official.

[George Cumby]

Holy shit. We agree.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Sounds like it's a done deal. I'd say ugh, but Cobb will probably score the game winning TD in the Super Bowl. Two QBs were released. I wonder who else they might bring back. Maybe B.J. Raji or Clay Matthews. Hopefully, not Jake Kumerow.

[Sparkey]

I am totally excited that we have added speed to our receiving core with this move.

[Zool]

Bring back Driver, Jennings, and Jones!

[Tony Oday]

Hahahhaha Cobb will only be healthy for 3 games so who cares?

[Cheesehead Craig]

Bring black Finley!

[RashanGary]

This is good for Amari Rodgers. Nothing good comes from having him piss Aaron Rodgers off as a rookie and never get the ball. Give him a redshirt year and let Cobb show him the ways of pro football.

[RashanGary]

And Amari is a nice starting point for Jordan Love. They’ll get tons of reps together and build some chemistry so they can hit the ground running next year.

[Jaire]

It won't affect Amari much. His main role was sweeps and special teams for the first year. He gets to break in easy to an expanded role. Personally, I don't want Cobb taking too many snaps a game anyways with his dinged up body.

Have to wait on contract details. But reportedly AR is not getting more money. So this was a no brainer really. And Cobb could flourish in this system as well. Amari is not gonna be ready for playoff games. Cobb could be key. He is clutch and doesn't need speed in this system.

[Bretsky]

I hope we gave up nothing of value for Cobb

[texaspackerbacker]

Like any deal, it's all about the details, and we don't know the details. I too hope we're getting him cheap. I guess I can go along with the idea that learning from Cobb or whatever is good for Amari Rodgers and thus good for the Packers. For him, though, for other players, and for us fans, I can't help thinking it's all gonna turn to shit after this season - assuming the stories are true.

Cobb is grossly overpaid and I'm not sure what he offers; anything over a 7th round draft pick is too much. Tauscher felt like delivering Cobb was part of AROD returning back. He had GB by the balls and broke them

[texaspackerbacker]

They probably can get Houston to pay part of what Cobb is owed, but that would probably lead to the Packers giving up more in trade. Like I said, the details.
