Randall Cobb update? He playing Sunday? (1 Viewer)

He was limited all week and I bet he plays but we have no idea how effective he'll be. I've been looking around and there's no real info.
He's had 10 days off though and since it wasn't serious enough to hamper him on Thursday and he didn't do it in practice I can't imagine that it's too serious.

Good call on the 10 days and also noting that his injury was not one that occurred in practice. However, what to make from Roto reporting "extremely limited"?? It's truly a GTD for me if he's active...my other option is Tyrelll Williams v DEN. Luckily for me they are both 4:00 games but I;ll be beating myself up regardless of who I start.

What you should make of "extremely limited" is that is not an official designation.
Reporters observe the first 10-15 minutes of practices that last 90-120 minutes. At the end of practice all reporters are given a practice report, which tells little info except Practiced in Full or Limited or Did Not Practice.
During that limited time of open practice the ESPN reporter there noticed Cobb was not engaged in any activity. He wasn't stretching or running on the side or engaged in drills. He was inactive. For 10-15 minutes. On Thursday. They didn't practice Friday and I have been unable to find out about today's walk through. They flew to ATL this afternoon.

A few of you said they did not practice Friday. I think they did, I think all teams practice Friday? Green Bay had injury report that day which listed him as limited and questionable: http://www.packers.com/team/injury-report.html

That's the real question to ask. I will tell you with great confidence he is playing. What I can't say with confidence is he'll do well but I tend to think he will based on variety of factors such as matchup, 10 days off, and being well enough to at least participate in every practice this week even if limited that beats DNP.

22sPackers' WR Randall Cobb is not expected to play Sunday vs. Falcons due to a hamstring injury, per source. Packers being careful with Cobb.

I'm honestly happy they ruled him out early because I would've been ####ed with no one else going in the afternoon/night games.

Confirming out
.Randall Cobb will not play in Week 8(FFChamps) Cobb, who is suffering from a hamstring injury, is ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Falcons. In Cobb's absence, Davante Adams will see an uptick in his increasing target-share. However, whom will step up as the No. 3 wideout is in question. Ty Montgomery is expected to remain in the mix to garner some of the running back duties on Sunday, leaving Trevor Davis and Geronimo Allison to pick up the slack on the outside. For fantasy football purposes, start Montgomery and Adams with confidence in a juicy matchup with the Falcons.

Thanks man, I'm here for your fantasy needs.
Seriously was just coming into this thread to own this mistake. Sorry. I don't own Cobb, maybe was not paying enough attention but I goofed this one, thought he was good to go.

No problem.
I was just giving you the business. You are usually very detailed on things.

Conflicting reports of if he'll be able to play this weekend.
FBG updates are saying he'll play
Source: Packers.com
Green Bay Packers WR Ty Montgomery (illness) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Nov. 3.
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
We think he'll be ready to go this weekend and his combination of receiving and rushing yards will vault him into borderline WR1/WR2 play.
However I just read this from Rotoworld which says otherwise:

Apparently reading skills isn't a strong suit.

Sounds like a bad situation. Maybe I just roll out Moncreif or Pryor and be done with it.

I've got Dontrelle Inman as backup in case Cobb is a no-go. I did the Jeff Janis Experience last week, not really that interested.

He's a game time decision....I'm not starting him in ANY leagues regardless if he plays...I wouldn't trust him...Been there done that. Not worth the risk of him playing a few snaps,then sitting on the bench the rest of game after he tweaks something! No Thanks!!!

Honestly... I dunno if I start him. Does Green Bay play games like this where they announce a starter but don't play him?

Damn..this news kinda screws me over. I have davante adams over him in a ppr--and I think I might keep things the way there are there. In another league--I had tyrell going over him (and I was hoping t benjamin would be out)--but now that benjamin is in--I'm not sure if I'll put cobb in over him. I'm leaning tyrell but damn.

Not sure how that screws you over as you still have the same options. I'd stick with Adams and Williams

I'm in a similar situation. My alternatives are bad enough that I'd take a chance on Cobb even if he's not 100%, but obviously not if I think he's just going to be riding the bench or maybe coming in as a decoy for a play or two.

rotoworld is saving face, start him.
decisions decisions...With both Cobb and Tyrell Williamas on my roster, I hedged and acquired Inman and Kendall Wright. I think I'm rolling with Tyrell and Wright...not sure I'm buying on Cobb today. Murphy's law suggests whatever he does will be feast or famine...You start him you are screwed,,,you bench him you are screwed...

I have a big lead in my game, might as well go with Inman over Cobb. If I needed a big score I'd go with Cobb.

He's running legit routes, just not been targeted yet.

Good call. News on Cobb has been quiet. With both Hilton and Cooper on a bye I'm eyeing guys like Cobb and Williams to fill in. Both have questionable tags, yet both seem to appear they will play?
