Dolphins Coach Has Soft Spot For Patrick Cobbs

What Cobbs gives in games and practices is simple: everything. Last year, he returned kickoffs for the Dolphins, took a screen pass 80 yards against Houston for the longest touchdown reception ever by a Dolphins running back and tied for the team lead with 16 special-teams tackles.

Sparano came to the Dolphins knowing Cobbs only as the running back who, while Sparano was in Dallas, tore up the Sun Belt Conference at North Texas with 4,050 yards and 36 touchdowns over four seasons. While Sparano always says Cobbs was ``a legend'' in that region, NFL scouts were not as impressed. Cobbs went undrafted in 2006 and signed with New England as a free agent.

Glad to see the coach has a "soft spot" for Cobbs.

Not to be a pessimist, but this is a dangerous year for Patrick. He has a few years under him and can be replaced by a younger, lower contract player. I wish the best for him an hope he can make the team again.
