Rodgers has now had two systems. He avoided the TEs in both. 

Cook is in a new system right now. Doesn't seem to be dying on it. He was in a new system when he left us. Doesn't seem to be dying on it.

This assumption that Packer fans have that Cook was going to be playoff Cook for us is ridiculous. 

Cook was fine and back in the regular season for us. Still wasn't getting the ball. 

There's not a 4 game stretch that you can pick since he got back from injury this year that he wasn't better than the last four regular season games of his year with us.

He's also 32 now as opposed to 29 which you are ignoring. 

Once Cook got healthy with us he produced.  It was a mistake for the Packers to not resign him.  You are suggesting it is Rodgers' fault that that he didn't produce more when he played in GB?

Once Rodgers started throwing Cook the ball, Cook produced.

Cook averaged 7.2 targets a game after he returned and Rodgers threw to Finley all the damn time. You're just making stuff up at this point.

The TE situation is obvious, Rodgers likes move TEs, he wants separation. He doesn't want to throw a 50/50 ball to Marty B or Graham and have them box out a DB and go get it. Signing both was dumb of our GMs when the kind of TE Rodgers likes is obvious. He's never liked 50/50 balls is whole career, even when he was the best player in football.

Get him a 6-4 guy in the 240 range who can run and he'll throw to the TE.

I swear he tried to give Graham the opportunity for jump balls, but he kept failing to show any real athleticism.  He tried to one hand a few and failed to bring them in.  He made the one grab in game one, and then failed at the next few and that was enough for Rodgers to abandon it.  The Black Unicorn was seemingly cooked and uninterested while in GB.  It seems Rodgers used to put some up for Finley to go up and get.  Just get him a legit TE with some athleticism and I think he'll use him.

This. 

Graham has had several jump ball opportunities and doesn't come down with them like he used to.
