Pretty much this. We have Adams and a bunch of question marks. Since we found out TyMont can play WR and RB, McCarthy has decided to under utilize him at both positions. He had around 15 snaps on Monday. Jordy isn't the player he was two years ago, and Cobb hasn't been the same either.

They're not playing up to their capabilities right now, but all solid receivers and they makes the eagles receivers look like cheerleaders. I would die to have Nelson and Cobb, hell even Adams.

Packers have relatively mediocre athleticism at best, most would say below average. Jordy is clearly not himself, great hands and great route runner though. Adams is finally making jabs and cuts that create separation, that ankle injury last year had been bothering him until recently. I don't really know what to make of Cobb, and Cook has all the tools to be a Gronk in this league but doesn't concentrate enough on the finer details that makes Gronk such a stud

thats WAYYYYY too much hype for cook.

for years the guy has struggled to catch the ball and isnt a good blocker. hes a decent offensive weapon at best and a liability elsewhere.

Jordan Reed is a tad smaller than Gronk and to a (slightly) lesser extent Cook. Of the 3, Cook is the fastest

Reed 6'2 243
Cook 6'5 258
6'6 265

yea i agree.

cook just cant block well. gronk is one of the better blockers as a TE. i mean hes a reed-lite in the fact that he isnt utilized to block much because it isnt a strength.

as I said before, the commitment that Gronk makes to studying the games finer details and his focus during the game is what makes him a Future HOF tight end

before Cook we had an extremely gifted Jermichael Finley but he was also a poor student of the game and lacked concentration

No fantasy points for blocks.
