Cobb's 40-time coming out of college was faster than the other two but he's not a "speed guy" by NFL standards and he's not used that way by the Packers. He excels lining up in the slot, he's the one of the three that occasionally lines up in the backfield and very occasionally takes a handoff. Think Donald Driver only (IMO) more dynamic (I know that's saying a lot but if he stays healthy I think Cobb lives up to that.) Not a speed guy, a nifty guy who can grab a pass over the middle and make the first defender miss. Nelson's 40-time was faster than Jones' and Nelson's career average per catch (in the regular season) is 15.1 yards compared to Jones' 13.9. Obviously that doesn't distinguish yards after catch from yards before, but still. Who appears to be the deep threat often is a function or who is getting the most or least attention from the D. </blockquote>
