Randall Cobb Could Become 100-Catch Receiver

Dec 7, 2014 1:41 AM

Aaron Rodgers is bullish on the type of season Randall Cobb can have for the Green Bay Packers in 2013.

"He cares about it a lot," said Rodgers of Cobb. "He puts a lot of extra time in. He watches a ton of film. He spent an off-season watching various slot guys that he admired and tried to pick things up. He's very well-coached. I think Edgar Bennett deserves a lot of credit. Here's a guy who's a Packer Hall of Fame running back who's coaching receivers and doing a heck of a job. So that helps. He stays on those guys about ball security and detailed routes. That helps. But Randall sees the game through the eyes of a quarterback because he was a quarterback. So he understands timing and spacing and when he has to get out of his breaks. He's an excellent — just like Jordy is — an excellent second reaction guy. When I have to come out of the pocket, where in the past you might have seen some of the balls go to Greg and Jordy, Randall caught more than anybody last year because he was healthy and he also has really good reactions."

With Greg Jennings departed, Cobb figures to be one of Rodgers' primary receivers.

"I think he can be a 100-catch guy. We haven't had that here in a while. But I think he can. I think he's a special player. As long as he can stay healthy, I think he's going to be a big-time star for us."
