Neither are going anywhere. Even if you cut one, who is ready to be #3?
Maybe, maybe, if they move Monty back to WR they may let Cobb go as Monty can play he slot.
Keep Nelson, Cut Cobb
Keep Cobb, Cut Nelson
Keep Both
Cut Both

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I know this is going to sound crazy, but hear me out....
Since Cobb and Nelson appear to no longer be effective as #2, or #3 options you address it by adding WRs through free agency, the draft and/or trades.
Unless you think having a 34 year old who can't gain a yard on a wr screen as your #2, #3 is a viable option for another year.
Lotta effective 34 yo WRs. No reason to dump him because Hundley can't find him, he was doing fine with Rodgers but he is not the same player. FA is mixed bag. They are all on market for same reason Nelson would be; no longer the same value or talent. You have to replace the talent AND get him for cheaper to make a switch pay off unless you have a younger player ready to go.
Cobb is slightly different as he might be effectively replaced by Monty. But that requires another position switch.

You should have hedged your bet for more reasons than that:
1. Your chart is out of date for ages, it lists Larry Fitzgerald as 32 when he is 34
2. Anquan Boldin retiring this year because of the Bills dismantling their roster skewed your list
3. 39 year old Steve Smith retired this year before the season
4. There are 3 - 34 yo WRs in the League playing this year, 2 of which are starting

Reread the post with the list, it has a custom insult for you.
You make the point that historically there have been many successful old guys. It's also true that there are currently very few old WRs, with Jordy possibly being oldest next year. Has NFL gotten to be younger game?
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

I think, and I could be wrong, that the money guys assign a dollar figure to each position group. Hard to take up 30% of the cap on a group that’s not tops in the NFL. Next year the QB spot will take up $25 or more. The OLB group be at $25 or more. Those 3 groups would then leave $35mil for the rest of the team. Doesn’t seem like the math would work out.
