[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 473278"] Hester was included in the WR rotation because he insisted on it. When his first contract was up, he threatened to go FA to somebody who would give him that chance. So the Bears gave him a contract heavy with incentives on his receiving stats, and kept good on the promise to play him some. Most of the incentives have gone unearned. As a WR, Hester is pretty bad; Cobb was better the first day he walked on the field than Hester ever was or will be. Hester is probably the best kick returner in the modern game; Sayers might have been better but lacked longevity. Based on 2 Bears games I've watched this year, his effort in the kicking game has been indifferent at best. He has the look of a guy who doesn't care all that much about it any more. The whole issue of where Cobb is going as a kick returner is likely moot. As his snaps increase, the Pack will be looking for new KR...maybe as soon as this coming draft. There is no more dangerous role to play on the football field than returning kicks. Hester is still out there doing it because he's got no other value. [/QUOTE]
