Would you trade Bobo?

[Rat]

He's fine as a fourth receiver, but I do think fans decently overrate what he's capable of. Like if we were to trade DK (I really hope we don't), I would want to acquire another receiver because I would not be in favor of just bumping Bobo up to a starting spot. I don't see him being productive in that role.

That being said, I doubt I'd trade him. I wouldn't want to move him for less than fourth rounder, because what's the point, and I doubt another team would offer that. I could see maybe trading him as a deal sweetener, like if we were involved in a bigger trade, I'm not going to risk a deal for a potentially higher-impact player to fall apart because the other team insisted on getting Bobo rather than the 6th rounder that was just in the deal as a throw-in.

Kubiak might actually use him correctly. I could see him lining up as H back a lot

at 200 or was it 205lbs, wouldn't he be too skinny for that?

Send Bobo and a 7th rounder for a 4th round pick and select the best kicker in the draft.

The last 2 years he went 31 for 33 and 5 for 5 on 50+ yard kicks (long of 59)...didn't miss one of his 72 extra point kicks.

This.

Like everything else was have/had that's been pissed away in the last 3 years - he needs to be USED....

Probably. But he is strong and really sticks his face in there and blocks. Get a linebacker covering him though and he will shred them

 

[Cyrus12]

He is a JAG...no market for him whatsoever and a wr5 at best.

 

[m0ng0]

Have him beef up and make him a TE

 

[ruffENrowdy]

I hope not, he is one of the few signed jerseys of a player i have haha.

 

[seabowl]

I’m sorry, but this is one of the most ridiculous topics that I’ve seen on this site for a while

There goes two minutes I'll never get back...

He ran 4.9 sec 40, weight may not be his best friend?

Not much left at WR behind Smith-Njigba and Metcalf.

I guess you could reclaim him off waivers in September.

Lol Bobo has an H-back? I think someone just saw that he's tall and white and assumed he could be our Taysom Hill. Taysom is 6'2" 230 btw.

 

[RiverDog]

If Chip Kelly wants Bobo, and is willing to trade Bobo with a 7th, would you do it?

For a 7th? LOL!

 

[DeSeahawk]

Yeah, trade him for a 7th that they will use to draft a receiver who cant block or catch and gets cut in July. He's cheap and has talent. Let's see what a new scheme does with him. He may prove to be better than people think.

 

[themunn]

Bobo is a guy who - if we lost him, wouldn't really make a difference to the team. But at the same time, whoever you draft with a 7th round pick is likely to be the same. So you either let him go for a 7th because you found another guy in the draft and so you reckon you're going to cut him anyway, or you find a team who is absolutely DESPERATE for bodies at the position and is willing to overpay, or trade you a player in a position where you have need.

 

[pittpnthrs]

That's my boy. Can't trade a future HOF WR for anything less than two 1st rounders. Right, Pitt?

This man gets it.

 

[Wolfiegrrl]

In a Kubiak system, I think Jake Bobo gets utilized like WR Kevin Walter was under Klint's father. Big WR that can block and catch. If we move on from No E, then I see Bobo moving up or even moving to more FB/TE style of play.

And that goes out the window if they target WR/TE/FB in the draft.

(That video is also a good highlight for how Gary Kubiak and Rick Dennison used FBs in that ZBS. I will scream my fool head off the first time I see Geno roll out on a Naked Bootleg!)

 

[Sperrydogg]

In his rookie year didn't he have some pretty crazy catches , or am I just thinkin training camp
Either way he sure has a kinda cult following and hope he gets the opportunity to live up to it

His coolest play was the jet sweep
