That's a good question. Who is more versatile, Randall Cobb or Devin Hester or Percy Harvin?

Cobb is just potential at this point, and probably has too much talent on his team to really shine the way Harvin can so its really hard to judge his versatility.

Hester is a single threat. He sucks as a WR.

Field position is huge.

Hester is the BEST returner EVER, but an average at best WR. I'd take Jennings, Jordy, and Jones above Hester as WR. Easily.

But Harvin has already proven he can do everything and do it well. I'm just hoping Cobb can develop into a Percy Harvin.

Harvin obviously put up more all purpose yards.

Hester is over rated in his impact in the game. He had 5 TDs. Take all of his return production and compare him to a real WR and he actually wouldn't be very good. Even with his receiving production and his return production combined.

For the money they are paying him, I would rather have a solid #1WR than Hester. WIth 10+ TDs a year.

I think using Devin Hester as a WR ruins him as a returner. I think he should be on kick/punt returns only with a sprinkle of a special play here and there on offense.

I haven't seen enough of Randall Cobb to say he's as much of a dual or triple threat as I have with Percy Harvin. Harvin has speed Cobb just doesn't have.

But I guess I'm not gonna complain!
