Jared Cook took a visit to Green Bay. (USATSI)

Because of his combination of size, speed, and athleticism, big things have always been expected of Jared Cook. He just ... has never actually delivered big things.

In seven NFL seasons, Cook has managed 273 catches for 3,503 yards and 16 touchdowns. Those figures rank 16th, 13th and 28th among all tight ends during that time. His average season works out to 39-500-2. That's not exactly a rare breed type of season -- 17 different tight ends matched or exceeded all of those totals in 2015.

Even Cook's best year, a 51-671-5 campaign in 2013, saw all of its benchmarks hit by seven tight ends in 2015. Cook, meanwhile, caught 39 passes for 481 with no touchdowns during what became his final season with the Rams. (Cook had just finished the third year of a five-year, $35 million deal, but his $8.3 million cap hit for 2016 was untenable given his level of production.)

On Tuesday, though, Cook reportedly took a visit to the Green Bay Packers. At the very least, this is an interesting visit. Look at the list of quarterbacks Cook has caught passes from in his career (in decreasing order of completions):

It's safe to say that none of those players is quite as good as Aaron Rodgers. If there's anyone that can finally turn Cook into something more than the sum of his parts, it's the guy that's been the best quarterback in football for most of his time in the league.

Then again, it seems pretty likely that if Cook did wind up in Green Bay, he'd just wind up being a complement to the incumbent Richard Rodgers. And it's not like he'd suddenly take over a huge role in the offense when (Aaron) Rodgers already has Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, Davante Adams, Ty Montgomery, Jeff Janis, and Jared Abbrederis to throw to. Still, Cook finally winding up with a good quarterback would have to be a nice change for him.
