SUMMARY
Wide Receiver Rank: #1   
Overall: #10


Nelson is emerging as a big-time target in the Packers' offense. He set career highs in receptions and yards last season, nearly doubling his previous career best numbers. But most impressive was his playoff performance. He had nine receptions for 140 yards and a touchdown in Green Bay's Super Bowl win and finished the playoffs with 21 receptions for 286 yards and two touchdowns. Nelson should continue to get more and more targets in 2011. He could even move into a starting role for the Packers. Nelson is a good athlete with above-average hands. He makes plays after the catch because of his top speed and moves in space. He will struggle with drops on occasion but is gaining the trust of Aaron Rodgers and moving ahead of others on the depth chart.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Nelson is a top sleeper at receiver for the coming season. He can build on his big-time playoff performance. It wouldn't surprise to see Nelson get around 1,000 yards and seven touchdowns in an expanded role. Consider him a solid low-end No. 2 receiver for fantasy teams. He is an emerging fantasy player.
