If the only WRs stepped up enough, I could see them trying to save money, but I don't think they did... and teams probably aren't offering any more than the comp pick the Packers might get for Cobb (which I'm guessing a 4th or at worst 5th if he stays healthy and starts).

Plus if you can get outside WRs going, Cobb and Graham both in the slot (or TE) might be hard to stop. Or if Cobb can play outside and two TE sets.

I have to believe this is more about some teams inquiring then the Packers putting it out there. The timing just doesn't seem right. The receiver group is lacking veteran depth the way it is. They are a couple of weeks away from the season starting. The #3 and #4 wr spots are still unclear although it looks like Allison and Kumerow have the inside track for now.

How does that look then if Cobb is taken out of the picture? Seems very unsettled to me. The rookie wr's are what they are, rookies, albeit with talent and promise. Ideally they get worked into the picture but more than likely a year away from being able to rely on.

IMO if the Packers were interested in making this move it should have come before now and with more viable options available to them. I, for one, believe Cobb will have a solid year with the old OC and Rodgers back along with it being a contract year that certainly adds incentive for him.

I just take last year and throw it out the window. Hundley only looked for Adams or quick out patterns and never did get comfortable throwing to the middle of the field. With that setup it didn't matter if it was Cobb or somebody else. That position was not going to do much.

"Packers have received trade interest in wide receiver Randall Cobb, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). However, the Packers are not shopping him and expect him to be a contributor for them this season."

This from story from pro football rumors.

I'm always skeptical of ANY story posted by Packers Talk.

It’s hard to know what really is Mack’s motivation. If it’s JUST money, we don’t stand a chance.
If it IS a ring, maybe we have a shot.

Wouldn’t it be cool if he went home after tonight’s game as a Green Bay Packer?

Hey Reggie, I like you so much, let me take that hold out off your hands so you can focus on just winning, baby!

Hey Brian, eat shit.

I offer a first, at most. We’ll already be mortgaging our future cap, why give up our future drafts too? Or offer Cobb and Matthews straight up.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields
dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?
wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.
dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it
Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty
wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
