    I'm not sad for DD. He's got nothing to hang his head about.

      I'm not impressed with Shaky. I think he'll end up being a camp body. Hopefully, Cobb can handle both punts and kicks. More importantly, punts to get Tramon off that unit. Maybe Cobb with somebody like Green or Starks on kicks.

        Not based on what I saw out of him at Utah.

          Isn't kick returning now little more than standing in the end zone and taking a knee since they moved to the 35?

            Not if I get to call Madden to the stand. So hurry up and file your suit

            But it was an actual question too. I don't remember McCarthy calling much of either.
            Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

              I remember about one or two a year by Driver. Never really went anywhere that I remember.
              No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

                To be honest, I don't remember; but Driver normally gets dropped for about a two yard loss then they scratch it from their play list for the rest of the season. Jennings had a couple a few years ago, I think. They went no where as well.

                  It does seem to happen just like that. I cringe everytime it happens.

                  I am very excited to see what Cobb can do though. The depth we have at receiving positions is unbelievable in a cap era.

                    Cobb has so many different skills, it's unbelievable. He started out at UK as a QB. Not just a running QB, he can read defenses, make accurate throws, etc. He was SEC player of the week as a Freshman QB. Not only that, he's a really good holder on kicks.

                    MM will love this new toy. Cobb can run a Wildcat, return kicks and punts (although I'd rather see Green as the KR) in addition to being the slot receiver. I also look for Randall to improve as a WR. He's only played that for a couple years, so he will continue to grow as he learns. Edgar Bennett is gonna love working with this kid.

                        Drool on this one, Bub

                        Cobb make a Circus catch and then scores from the WildCobb (as opposed to Wildcat, eh?)



                        One thing about Randall, he's a left handed thrower and his catching motion throws off defenders.

                        Lastly, he's got Packer written all over him. He's been telling everyone in Lexington how happy he is to be a Packer. The kid is a leader. Not a rah-rah, boy scout bullshit leader, but a guy who will make huge plays when you need 'em.

                            Last I saw MM talked about Cobb on PR while Alex Green would get a look on KO's. Can't remember when/where I read it, maybe I was dreaming.

                              That's good, I hope that's the way they do it. Honestly, my only worry with Randall is serious injury. This kid will run right into the teeth of the defenses no matter the situation. He's not that experienced a receiver. He mainly ran slants and shallow crosses at UK. He's got to broaden his repertoire or he'll get tore up in the NFL.

                                Read the samething. Unsure if AG has the zig zag ability to be a good kickoff return ability.
