If you cut Matthews as well and are going to rely on a "top tier rookie" or depth, that is now 2 positions you are hoping to fill with the same scenario.Again, I am not saying that there aren't better options between now and the start of 2018 when it comes to Cobb, Nelson and Matthews, but cutting/trading them and then expecting to fill their spots with current Packers or rookies, I don't see the logic behind that, unless you are viewing 2018 as a rebuilding year?</blockquote>
