Just tweeted a reply.

I actually like Nelson in this offense like 10x more than Sammy and I really liked Sammy.
If we didn't already have a possession receiver I would like him here... We need somebody to take the top of the defense that's not Jordy

Jordy is struggling to stay healthy at this age too.

Yeah possessions into the end zone. The guy was a top 3 receiver over a 3 year span. The fact that Huntley couldnt get the ball downfield killed his season and was not his fault.

In 2013, 14, and 16 he only missed one game and averaged 1400 yards and 12 tds per season. Damn right I want him

best part is he was cut and won't offset the 2 3rd rounders the rams will receive from watkins and tru getting those huge deals in fa. if mcvay wants him and signs him that's good enough for me.

When he went down early in the 2015 season the packers pass game struggled because Cobb got shut down without jordy getting the priority coverage. Please mcvay, have him come in for a physical and chat

Very curious how his medical is... if it's legit a nice one year deal could be in order.

I would love to get Jordy, but what kind of contract would he look for?

Time to get trader Snead on the case.

Nelson had six TD catches in the first five weeks of 2017 playing with Rodgers; didn't play at all in week 2. Caught 19 of 28 targets during that time. I think he would be a great short-term plug in at WR and not be expensive at all.

Well, I doubt Nelson would be as cheap as any of us would like - but I'd like the Rams to look into him. But not if it'll prevent the defense being finished.

Jordy Nelson IS NOT a possession receiver, sheesh. Do you make that assumption because he is white?

He averages over 14 ypc for his career. My wife and in-laws are Packer fans, so I see every games. He's a legit over the top threat.

Don't see the Rams going after a WR. I'm sure they think Reynolds is the replacement for Watkins.

He's sure not a speedy receiver

He's on his way to the raiders for a look see. If they sign him then Crabtree will be cut. Then the whiners can sign him for a fun time this season.

:fuelfire:. I think that might actually help with the ticket sales.
