re: Saints sign WR Simmie Cobbs off Redskins PS

quote:

---

SUMMARY: A two-year starter at Indiana, Cobbs grew into the starting “X” receiver in the Hoosiers’ offense, lining up almost exclusively on the left side of the
formation – leaves Bloomington ranked top-10 in school history in career catches (139) and receiving yards (1,990). He is physically impressive and his basketball
background is evident, showing the ability to box out, out-physical defenders and handle the ball. While he isn’t an elusive player, Cobbs is more than just a
possession target, always looking to turn catches downfield and create after the catch. Overall, he needs work with his route-running and the finer points of the
position, but Cobbs has some Mike Evans to his game with his size and ball skills to be a reliable chain-mover in the NFL.
GRADE: 4th Round
