Are you seriously going to claim you don't have an agenda here ? While there seems to be a lingering bicep inj here, there is no concrete evidence that it's going to have a major impact on his 2013 season. It strikes me as though you are purposely trying to drive down his price as maybe a lot of your league members read the FBG boards?
Excellent work. For the Packers sake, I hope he is minimally affected.
Great info...while speculative...goes into much better details than we have heard and from people who know what they are talking about.
Solid backtrack there.
Have not backtracked a bit. These people have the right backgrounds...admit its speculation. Unlike say...some internet guy who was claiming partial tears.
Then again...you also claim I am just emotional about him...yet can't explain why you made that accusation.
I like how you call this excellent work, when it basically says your belief that Cobb had a torn bicep tendon was a bunch of crap. Nice job backtracking.
There is, but I think durability questions need to be factored into his valuation at this point. He didn't miss any games last year, but he was in-and-out of a lot of them. Dude's tough as nails, but given his role and noting how often he is playing through pain I question how effective he'll be with an increased workload...or if he can repeat last year's. Given his current price, looking more and more like I'm passing on him this year.
Don't know what u r talking about. Please link.
When the injury happened on the 6th, I listed multiple options as to what the possibilities were. I never said it was one specific thing. Please link to where I stated that he had a torn bicep tendon.
I asked for a link.
Jene,

Nicks practiced with pain too. A lot of players do. But you can't play at 100% with severe pain and it doesn't matter how many painkillers you take. And that's what concerns me about Cobb. Because if he has tendonitis, he could be limited by pain all season long. I'm sure he'll tough his way through it and it may clear up in a couple of weeks, but I would rather draft a different WR at his ADP that is pain free and not injured to start the season.
Again, not what happened. Thanks for the terrible overview. I gave options on possibilities, not all included a tear. I searched the entire thread for the word "probably" and it had no results.
I think the Packers website said he is not going to play, but I don't have time today to look for a link. TIFWIW
Dude, you are really hurting your credibility and reputation with these Cobb posts. Man up to your mistake and it's all good. Nobody is perfect around here, but I can tell you right now that while the members of this board will look past the occasional bad call, they will never forgive or respect you if you continue to insult their intelligence with posts like this.
For me it definitely does. Bramel's latest article discussing injury situations recommended dropping him to the Nicks/Bowe area in the rankings IIRC.
If you are not a politician, you should be.
His arm transplant was successful and he could begin playing football again in 2015.
It's the Packers, there are no 3-4 week injuries.ROYALWITCHEESE said:
