Cobb has been in decline for years already. This goes to show why Gute told Rodgers to shut up and let the more knowledgeable people run the team.

The Cobb situation is so stupid it makes me wish the Packers had just traded Rodgers now.
You got the thread title wrong.
Lighten up everybody. Rodgers is back. That makes the Packers one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl. Whether, it's for 1 year, 2 years, or (fill in the blank Tex) years, that's a great thing. You think Bears fans are happy about this?
Am I excited about trading for Randall Cobb? Not really. But it's not like Cobb makes the team worse, and might make it better if he can stay healthy. I mean, this is not the John Hadl Trade Deux.
It's been a rough offseason. Training Camp is here. Time to look ahead. Time to break out the Kool-aid.

Does anyone know what was traded for Cobb?
I'm hoping it wasn't more than a couple cases of Leinenkugels's.
Very True, and making "heartless" decisions like not paying Cobb, not paying Nelson, not paying Kuhn, etc. are a big part of why the Packers have stayed near the top for so long. Of course, 30 years of Favre and Rodgers has even more to do with it.
I'm not at all happy with this whole situation. The only way Murphy and Gutekunst can salvage it is if they pull off a miracle and keep Rodgers beyond this year.
You know, nobody is more of a Kool-Aid drinker than I am most of the time, but not this time. Yeah, maybe if things fall right, one more Super Bowl (as I said, BFD - I can't get very excited about that if it's followed by 5-10 years of crap).
Maybe a couple of early season wins will get me back in the right place/take all the post '21 shit off my mind. But right now, I'm NOT pleased.
How do the Texans pick up Cobb's salary, capwise? Do they just convert it to signing (or roster) bonus and have that accelerate onto their books when the trade occurs?
One bright spot would be that Cobb is a team leader and will take the rookie under his wing and teach him what he knows
That could help in the long run
Like who? As a downtrodden person, I’m all for Cinderellas beating the odds, but you’re delusional if you think the Kung Fus of the likes of Taylor, Shepherd, St. Paul and Funchess are better than Cobb’s.
Adams, MVS, Cobb, Lazard, Rodgers are locks. The rest of the pass catchers currently on the roster are a bit like myself, an alienated burger-flipper: faceless, hapless and expendable.
You need to get out more.
