And if he doesn't, he gets cut.So I don't think these rookies should get any slack. If they can't play with the big boys, let them go.Like look at Randall Cobb. His very first touch in a reg. season game started with a bang and he hasn't looked back once. ALL the rookies should aspire to play just like him on that level 24/7 from their very first pro Packers game onward.</blockquote>
