Saints Sign WR Simmie Cobbs Off Redskins Practice Squad

Is it not a good thing that for the past week or so (if not longer) that there have been rumblings about how good Simmie Cobbs is and how he has been progressing on the Washington practice squad?

Well the New Orleans Saints, a playoff contender, think Cobbs has been progressing as well and signed him today.

In the latest chapter of roster mismanagement the Redskins let another promising player get away. Cobbs (6’3, 220 lbs) wasn’t known for his breakneck speed but he produced at a high level during his time at Indiana in college and was known for his reliability and ability to physically outplay his opponent.
