I think there is way too many factors and how many TDs would just be a random guess.

I'm more interested in who the returners will be.

Clearly Cobb and Monty are thought to be options but early in the year it seems like MM always bans important role players from being returners.

I believe I read a story about WR Cobb, CB Rollins, RB Jones and RB Mays all practicing as a punt returner, but it's early now and based on past years the Packers seem to like to rotate guys and and out of this... so guys that haven't been doing it might get chances later.

I would like to see WR Davis get more shots as a returner, because if he can learn to protect the ball a bit better, then he could become a darn good returner. Also maybe Janis on kick returns.

Davis will get a shot, but if Cobb regresses to #4, the job will be his.

Devin Hester could be the NFL's all-time best Kick Returner. Better than Gale Sayers or Billy "White Shoes" Johnson . IMO, Desmond Howard may just be GB's all-time best Kick Returner .

Trevor Davis will enter his second season with GB . IMO, based upon his success as a Kick Returner at Cal. , I expect to see him emerge as as GB's #1 Return man. His success will be dependent however upon the blocking of his fellow ST's players . [frust]
