Just so you know I always really liked Cobb, but we moved on from him for a reason. MVS, Lazard, Tonyan and A. Rodgers just got their targets and growth stunted. Also, I HOPE YOU ARE RIGHT AND HE TAKES LESS! If he restructures and we push guaranteed money into next year that is dumb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ***** about him around here was he wasnt equal to or earning his contract - which given injury and production was a discussion that could take place. Agree - hope he doesnt displace someone with more long term upside - but mostly - I'm hoping his contract agreement is painless and he's nothing but potential upside. bolded. No, that wasn't the awful thing about Cobb. The truly awful thing about Cobb is that he lost his legs at the same time that Jordy lost his, despite being much younger. We really should have had another 2-3 years of Prime Cobb before we got Prime Adams. Not sure why or how it happened, but he lost that little gear that made him special. Here's to hoping that "veteran savvy" can get him by this year. No doubt our coach can scheme him open some. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both born by mothers and both from the same place .... anatomically speaking. it's uncanny. Good thing they'll be wearing different colors, probably no other way to tell the two apart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSG Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Don’t love it, don’t hate it. That’s a lot of money for a guy who hasn’t been overly productive for the better part of the last 7 years. Not sure how much RC has left but we didn’t have a player like him him in the roster before this year’s draft. Will be interesting to see what Lafleur can do with a player that has RC’s skill set.

Which skill set? The skill set of 2020 or 2015? The guy we are trying to remember is no longer. I think @vegas492 said it best, he lost his legs. He has lost his quickness. He was never a speed merchant. MLF is going to have to scheme him open to get him targets. Other problem is if Rodgers only has eyes for Adams and Cobb and stops playing within the system. We saw a ton of that in McCarthy's last few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, though, if teams are going to devote that much to containing Adams, you know they have to keep extra eyes on MVS, so it could allow Cobb to function underneath. So yah, I'm sayin' there is a chance..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yah, I'm sayin' there is a chance..... So would you rather those underneath throws are going to Cobb or either Tonyan or Lazard? My biggest fear is Rodgers getting locked in on Cobb and Adams which he is wont to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers is really the only one I'd worry about but he might also be viewed as a beneficiary possibly. Idk how the money will work but I also don't think the FO is stupid enough to, do something really stupid with his deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
