SUMMARY
Wide Receiver Rank: #75   
Overall: #228


Nelson wasn't a huge factor in the Packers passing game, but did have a catch in all but a game last season. He had 33 receptions, but his season-high in yardage was 42 yards. He served as a possession receiver, a role he also filled very well in college. Nelson will rotate as the No. 3 and 4 receiver for the Packers this season. Nelson is a good athlete with above-average hands. He can also make plays after the catch because of his top speed.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
He'll get lost in the shuffle some weeks, hurting his fantasy production. But Nelson is worth a late-round grab to add depth to your receiving corps. He can get 500 or 600 yards and a few scores. Nelson will be a bigger factor in the Packers offense in another season or two.
Mike Spofford, of Packers.com, reports Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson (knee) sprained his knee in Week 6 and will miss a couple of weeks, according to head coach Mike McCarthy.
Fantasy Impact: This gives James Jones a little more playing time in the near future.
Pete Dougherty, of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, reports Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson could compete with WR James Jones for the No. 3 receiver spot.
Rob Demovsky, of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, reports Green Bay Packers rookie WR Jordy Nelson is a former high school state champion in track. The Packers believe he can be effective as a possession receiver as well as on deep routes. At Kansas State, he was most effective as a slot receiver in multiple-receiver sets, which is similar to what the Packers employed effectively last season. The team also liked his size, durability and productivity. The team is not sure if they will use him as a return man.
