Green Bay Packers: Randall Cobb

Let the record show that originally, Brett Hundley was a strong candidate for this spot on the list since it seemed like the Green Bay Packers were going to keep him around with DeShone Kizer before dealing him to the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday. On that same day, the Packers also locked Aaron Rodgers up to a massive four-year, $134 million extension to make sure the quarterback continues to be happy for years to come, even if the team parted ways with one of his all-time favorite targets in Jordy Nelson this offseason.

Moving on from Nelson was one of the most difficult decisions Green Bay had to make when looking at the impact he made throughout his career at Lambeau. And even though the thought of the Packers moving on from Randall Cobb as well sounds insane to think about, it really isn’t all that crazy to consider.

Between all of the money the team would save along with his history of injuries, Cobb arguably has more working against him to keep the wideout around. Similar to Stafford with the Lions, Rodgers is the type of quarterback that will make any player around him better, and the Packers have plenty of young talent to fill in if needed on offense.
