With Jennings and Driver now gone and GB's WR corps doing a shakeup, what role will Cobb play this year?
He was used as a Wes Welker-over-the-middle-short-yardage type WR as well as that Percy Harvin-RB/WR-hydrid-line-up-in-the-backfield-player, and he was effective in both roles.
Jordy Nelson is obviously now the down field sprinter and James Jones played the WR/ala-TE big man with some success. Sooo-- where does Cobb fit in?

Hybrid, closer to a Percy Harvin. Like Harvin, I foresee a continuing role as return guy. Harvin did only kicks, Cobb does punts and kicks. Yes, I see Cobb also relegated to slot. Welker was also almost always slot. Harvin did slot and everywhere else in WR capacity. He was deep threat, but not the same way as a true deep threat like a Mike Wallace or Jordy Nelson. He's every bit as fast, but a little short, no other help, and...Christain Ponder. Not saying he's horrible, but, well ya know. There's no better than Welker at what he does. There's no one better than Harvin at all he does combined (including rush), IMO.
I get a feeling you're really asking about something else, like who will excel per your league's scoring settings? haha PPR? Returns?
