C Mart Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 31 minutes ago, bonkertons said: Maybe outraged was the wrong word - I think "hyperbolic" would be better. One guy says Rodgers is the GM now and JD is a "cuck". Another says if Maccagnan had done this, we'd be calling for him to be fired. Another claiming that we botched our draft and didn't take JSN because of this move, which is one of the most moronic things I've seen on here. I've never seen a depth signing - literally our 5th WR at best - get THIS much attention, much less this much criticism. People acting like our season just went up in flames because of this. As Bart Scott is now explaining - Cobb can help train the WR room should they have questions. Before people say that's the WR coach or Hackett's job, Bart explains they don't always have the time to do so. He gave the example - if Hardman has a question he can go up to Cobb and ask what am I supposed to do here or something to that effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be an old WR but if our QB signs off on him I'm ok with this cheap signing. Why the hell not? Plus he and Lazard will help the others with the nuances of the routes and what Rodgers favors.

Mike Evans is substantially better than Hopkins, having never dropped below 1000 yards/season or been available for fewer than 13 games. Trading a pick for him and his $13M cap hit would be significantly more prudent than trading for the lesser Hopkins and his $19M salary, yes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post undertow Posted May 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2023 Man people have really lost their minds around here....I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say the Jets signing Cobb as the #5 or 6 receiver has nothing to do with not drafting JSN and not trading for Hopkins or Evans. lol 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Ghost Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Now that I’m done making wise cracks about this signing, I’ll be serious for one minute about it. Cobb is going to be a pretty productive WR out of the slot, and we’re going to love him on 3rd downs. My prediction is he turns out to be a better signing than Hardman. Rodgers loves this guy, and GW, Lazard and Cobb are going to be his go to guys. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 18 minutes ago, slats said: That’s an accurate portrayal, lol. I’ve got Cobb no better than the #5 WR on this team for what I expect signed for something down around the league minimum. Maybe $2M/year, no more than that. Hopkins, meanwhile, is under contract for a $19M salary this season. And you -I presume- would’ve wanted to trade a draft pick for the pleasure of paying that? I get that he’s been a better player than Cobb for his entire career, but he’s on a serious downside right now. I’d rather pay <$2M for Cobb’s 400 yards than $19M and a draft pick for Hopkins’ 700. Seems like a prudent business move to me. I feel like one of Hopkins biggest benefits is that he is QB proof. He played well with Schaub, Fitzpatrick, Hoyer, Osweiler, Mallet, Yates, Weeden, Tom Savage, Watson, Murray. Seemed like it didn't much matter who was throwing. That skill seems wasted with Rodgers, but I think Rodgers would really appreciate him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Ghost Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 At the end of the day, this team is about one guy. We might as well make our 40yo QB as comfy as possible.

Warfish Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 59 minutes ago, slats said: I definitely believe that Douglas picked McDonald because he was the top player on his BAP board while the top players on the need side of the aisle were way further down. That if he thought JSN was the top prospect there, he would’ve told Rodgers sorry on Cobb and taken him there. I really think it’s that simple. He certainly hasn’t had an aversion to drafting the position, unlike his predecessors. I don't believe that. I think the original plan got FUBAR because of the run on the top tackles, and that JD would not, in fact, say no to a "Rodgers wants Cobb" request. And those both factored into the choice of pick, not necessarily were the driving force, but factors. With that said, I have no way of knowing what JD's view of JASN was, for all I know he hated him as a prospect (as now so many Jets Fans seem to). 59 minutes ago, slats said: Also think you severely underestimate Hardman. This guy’s been #3 in targets in Kansas City behind Hill and Kelce since his sophomore season. Cobb was 6th in targets in Green Bay last year with Rodgers. All things being equal and healthy, Cobb is primarily a depth piece here who will not rise above #5 WR status while Hardman has a legitimate chance to be #3 over Davis. You certainly could be right on that. I don't think much of Hardman tbqh. No question, I could be wrong on the split between Cobb and Hardman.

JetsRay Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 4 hours ago, KRL said: So what, let him come in and compete. It's not like Douglas/Saleh are going to cut Garrett Wilson to keep Cobb on the roster. If he still has something in the tank fine otherwise he'll be cut: https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/14053/randall-cobb Exactly, everybody just assumes Cobb is coming in and will be on the team. If that was the case, he would have been signed along with Lazard. Cobb was added to compete, his spot on the roster is not set in stone. He also comes in with experience, with Rodgers, with the system, that will be huge for all of our young guys... This is a win win... But SOJF will FidelioJet anyway I suppose... ?

#27TheDominator Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 To be fair, one of the issues was people saying Mims wouldn't play specials and I think he went out of the way to say he would and practiced them. He probably lost some snaps because Jeff and Vyncynt both played specials when he didn't. Because of that, he was stuck waiting for Davis to get hurt.
