That stinks... oh, well. Anyway from the Patriot site here is what they had to say about Cobbs before the game.

COBBS CREATES

Rookie free agent running back Patrick Cobbs made a strong first impression, taking his first professional reception 57 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter. Cobbs collected a screen pass from Matt Cassel and scampered down the left sideline for the score. The touchdown was the longest Patriots play from scrimmage in the preseason since Tom Brady connected with David Patten for an 85-yard touchdown against Washington (8/16/03). Cobbs finished the game with a team-best 80 receiving yards on three catches, while rushing five times for 25 yards. The 5-foot-9-inch, 210-pounder is North Texas’ all-time leading rusher with 4,050 yards – making him only the 69th player in NCAA history to eclipse the 4,000-yard rushing mark. The Patriots signed Cobbs on May 15, 2006 following rookie mini-camp.

ROOKIE RECEPTIONS

Patriots’ rookies accounted for 11 receptions and 179 receiving yards. Fullback Garrett Mills, who snared a team-best five receptions for 75 yards, led the group Patrick Cobbs grabbed three passes for 80 yards, while tight end David Thomas hauled in two passes for nine yards. Wide receiver Erik Davis chipped in with one catch for 15 yards.

Sounds like they are pretty high on him considering the company he is keeping on that preview.
