There is no way Cobb is let go. He's the most dynamic player on the team and one of the best slot WRs in the league. Jordy is great, but what he does is easier to replace than what Cobb does.


There's no way you can believe Jordy can be replaced Cobb is good but I believe they found his replacement in Adams.

Neither of them are easily replaced....I think you guys are forgetting about Mankin. His status is probably more questionable than the other 2. I'm thinking we'll see tons of Jordy and Cobb, and probably 50% Mankin, 50% committee from the other WRs that make the 53 man roster. Good way to mix up the defense with several different player styles coming from the same
slot or WR position. If Rodgers gets enough practice with them outside of the games, then I don't think heavy switching will be a problem when it comes to the passing game.

I will be the hardest to replace once my contract is up. I will probably sign with the Wyoming Dolphins in all honesty

Different types of players. Cobb is going nowhere. This is foolish talk.

Jordy is a good receiver that benefits greatly from his chemistry with Rodgers. His performance level is way higher than his talent level. Chemistry can be made with new players, and I would rather let the one of these two with less talent walk.

I disagree with you on this. Chemistry is one of the hardest things to get in football. Rodgers to Jordy and Rodgers to Cobb is becoming one of the top chemistry in the league.
Rodgers and Jordy Chemistry isn't something that can be replaced, tell me that you can pick another receiver and get the production of the back shoulder throws and the knowledge of when the other player will be doing exactly what the other player is thinking.
Chemistry is just not something that is simply replaced. You can replace talent - Hence Finley. Finley and Rodgers chemistry never really hit, it looked good at times but even as good as finleys talent was, it never helped.

Chemistry > Talent.
They will resign Jordy for less than what he "Should" be worth but that's because of like you said his chemistry is better than talent but they will also know that is needed.
Cobb has to be resigned, he's the future for this WR corps.
Either way, we NEED Cobb back, and they won't let him go. Trust me.

Might have misread your post, but there are my 2 cents that nobody will give a shit about lol.

Been in Kansas City at the nascar races - was a pretty good time but missed most of the draft. I gotta do some research on these guys. Will be fun to see how many get to make the team and how they develop! :)

Anybody know about this LB? How fast is he and if he can be moved to ILB?

Heard that he's got Matthews mentality but not as physically gifted obviously.
