I was questioning how far back he was going since it would have had to be all the way back to 2008 to get 2 great drafts. Also, if Cobb walks and you look at all those great drafts we had at WR only one of those WRs is still with the team.  Draft and develop seems to be Draft and Develop and Delete when it comes to Teds WR policy.  It just seems to me that so many people think every WR Ted drafts turns to gold and while that may be true with his high round picks it is not so with his later picks.  With that in mind the way I see it if you let Cobb walk you have to address the position in the first 3 rounds probably even 1st or 2nd.  If you keep him it lets you focus on other areas and if a WR just happens to to be the BPA at any time you can take him.  I think some people are getting so hung up on the money we might have to pay Cobb they are forgetting the benefits having him gives us during the draft and even during FA and I am not talking about his production, although that is important.    Losing him means we have to replace him and that won't be free negating some of the money we save by not signing him.  Losing him means we have to address the WR position once again at the potential risk of neglecting another position.Lastly, to those saying we lost Jennings and Driver and we were fine and we lost Jones and we were fine I would say our WR corps was deeper then.  If Cobb walks we have 1 proven WR we can count on who doesn't have question marks.  I think Adams will be good but a lot of people thought Boykin was going to be good too and being that he is a 2nd year man I don't think you can say he (Adams) doesn't have question marks.I understand that we probably shouldn't pay him 12 million.  At some point you do have to say enough is enough, what you have been offered, or what you are asking,  is too much.  I just don't think 9 million or 9.2 or 9.5 or even 9.8 is too much for all the options and freedom that having Randall Cobb on our roster gives us.</blockquote>
