Randall Cobb: 5 potential free agency destinations
By Evan Massey
Which five teams make the most sense for impending free agent wide receiver Randall Cobb as he enters NFL free agency this offseason?
Randall Cobb is one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL, and he will get a major payday this coming offseason as he hits the free agency market. The Green Bay Packers would like to bring him back, but they are far from being the only team that will pursue him this offseason.
There are plenty of high-profile free agents on the market, but Cobb is one of the best. He has become one of Aaron Rodgers’ favorite targets over the past couple of seasons, and really showed what he is capable of this past season. If the Packers didn’t have Jordy Nelson, Cobb’s numbers would likely be even more impressive.
During the 2014 regular season, Cobb ended up catching 91 passes for 1,287 yards and 12 touchdowns.
At just 24 years of age, those numbers are impressive and are going to earn him plenty of looks from other teams. He is a speedy wide receiver who is also capable of coming across the middle and making plays. Green Bay has also used him in different formations in the backfield as a running back.
Talented wide receivers aren’t too hard to come by at the NFL level, but difference makers like Cobb are. Teams are going to be very aggressive in free agency trying to sign him, and he will have his choice.
