Don't over think it and get a 206. A nice bat off or on can be had for around 3k. If you pay more at least you got the card you desired. Plus it's value will surely increase.

If your budgeting t201's are a fairly inexpensive way to get Cobb & Crawford together. Lot nicer card then cut strip cards at the same price.

Get the 206 so you don't regret your decision. Both my Cobbs were in your price range. My exhibit was under $1000 before the price surge.

I basically agree with the 'stache

If you buy a card that's too raggedy and you really don't like it, you'll eventually replace it... and then you join that dreaded club of those who 'bought a card twice so they could have it once'. I've done that a few times, 'tis painful.

If you like the T 206, as many have suggested, take a look at the M 116. Both portraits are really nice but the blue background really pops in my opinion. Thinking a nice presenting example could be found in your price range.

Also worth at least considering caramel cards - They’re typically less common than Tcards without the significant price hike - most popular (available?) of these is the E95 but other series worth checking out as well. However, If I was only going to own a single Cobb personally, I’d pick bat off T206 - and only Bc the visual appeal is stunning.
