Paul will likely become the best blocking TE on the roster. Don't worry about his size, remember that all the O linemen are on the small side & the ZB scheme calls for a lot of stretch & open field blocking. He will have trouble adjusting to pass pro against bigger & equally quick OLB/DEs but he'll learn.
I know alot of people like Cooley but he is about done.

Yeah thats the general response for a guy who is so well liked. Two of the last 3 years he has had injury riddled seasons. We know he's role has been reduced and Fred has emerged as a better playmaker at this time. Like to see him back and still think he can contribute. But if he is gonna be hurt again this year, its time to let him go.

Cooley is a stud in the right system but I'm not sure how well he fits w/ what Mike/Kyle do. A speedier TE probably gets the nod. It's a bummer to be sure because one of Cooley's greatest strengths was finding the open space...

The numbers the past 2 years show otherwise. Even last year he looked slow as molasses.

In 2010, Cooley had 77 catches and 849 yards, hardly a sign of decline. And Cooley had knee injury last year, which explains the great decline in his speed. I don't think Cooley is done yet, at least not this year. Now that Paul is becoming TE, if he plays well and Cooley doesn't this year then I could see the cut coming next season. But not this year.
