Randall Cobb had 6-7 offers today, Im told. He turned down considerably more money elsewhere to sign with the #Packers.

What's the cost of living in Wisconsin vs California?

Depends on where you live, but I'm pretty sure all of his offers weren't from teams in California, and Jacksonville isn't expensive.
