Randall Cobb Adds New Dimension to Green Bay Offense & More NFCN News

I've been a fan of Randall Cobb since the Packers first drafted him in 2011. He's fast, versatile and dynamic. He's also very tough, vital in allowing him to flourish in the offense as he takes some big hits.

Pete Dougherty of the Press-Gazette said today that Cobb gives this offense a new dimension and I can't disagree.

Cobb lined up in the backfield of all places this weekend and adding that to his role as the new Donald Driver, kick and punt return man and likely light kitchen duty, it's a clear indication that Cobb can do many things.

The more ways he can be utilized, the better for this team. Cobb is unlike any of the other weapons on the field, though he possesses aspects of many of them. 

Dangerous once he has the ball in his hand, Cobb is a guy the team needs to find creative ways to use.

Like popping him in the backfield.

On to the rest of the division.
