TE Jared Cook in Green Bay, set to sign 1yr deal· Page 7

Here's how I see it with Jared Cook.
He never had a GREAT QB throwing him the ball. As was seen with guys like Greg Jennings and James Jones, a great QB can really elevate a receiver's game. Take away that great QB, and a seemingly excellent receiver becomes average or worse.
Cook might just be what we need to open up the middle and give our WR's more chances.
In the past, without a decent TE, the defense could pretty much ignore that guy and concentrate more on WR coverage.
And hopefully Jordy and the other WR's will be at 100% health wise, and Eddie Lacy will come back "hungry" (I mean for yards, not food).

Good to see. Still think they should have pursued Ladarius Green,

Ladarius Green has been sidelined with recurring headaches and is rumored to be considering retirement. Yikes! I think Percy Harvin had some wicked migraine issues early in his career.

Headaches, we're talking about headaches?

I'm expecting good things from Cook. Would be incredible if he gave us the tight end combo we once had in Jackson/Chmura.
