I would keep Nelson over Jones, but luckily do not have to make that decision.
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another. -Vince Lombardi

Great poll, great divide. I think they are both great receivers. As the #3 and #4 receivers of the team, I think they are the top #3 and #4 receivers out of the league.

I gave the edge to Nelson even though I think both are great receivers.

Catching- tie
Route Running- Jones
Agility- tie
Speed- Nelson 4.5-40speed (and because he is the KR/PR..bad logic?)
Toughness- tie
Blocking- Nelson
Jumping- Jones
Size- according to roster, Nelson.

I am extremely happy to have both aboard but if I had to pick one for the long run, I would go with Nelson because I think he has more to offer.

I like em both.
I gave a slight edge to Nelson.
Due to his injuries I don't think Jones has had the chance to show all that he can do.
One thing is for sure. Management only has one more year to decide if they want to pay bigger money to Jones. I am sure James would love to be on a team where he could start and have more of an opportunity. If he leaves it will be a huge loss for GB.

Jones will eventually replace Driver.

Also, a lot of you say Nelson's a better blocker. Still, Jones is a pretty good blocker. Blocking is a big part of our WR corps, and they're all somewhat good at it.

I like Jordy. But I love me some Jones. :blowkiss:

They're both underrated because they don't see that much time on the field, especially with Finley taking away receptions now.

Jordy is great because he can play special teams and I've also heard many people on the coaching staff praising him as the best blocker of all our receivers.

Jones is great because he's got stellar hands, supposedly best on the team but I've seen him drop a few this season. He's also underrated after he gets the ball in his hands.

Once either of these guys gets more playing time we'll be able to properly gauge their effectiveness but until then we'll have to survive on flashes of their talent.

Jordy Nelson because he is way better runner in YAC. That's why he returns kicks and punts for us.

Jones has 5 touchdowns on the season which is tied for 2nd on the team with driver.

I'm surprised Tromadz hasn't weighed in on this topic. I picked Jones, because Tromadz hates him.

Jordy Nelson would be a starter for several teams in the league this year. He hasn't had his chance to breakout because he's behind Driver and Jennings. If he was on a team like the Bears or Browns, we would've started and had like 60-70 catches this season. With Jermichael emerging as a receiver, that's also limited Jordy's role.

I remeber when he was drafted, Ray Rice and Desean Jackson were still on the board and both of them were elected to the Pro Bowl this year. There were concerns about their size coming out of college. Jordy may never be a Pro Bowler but he runs good routes and has speed and catches anything thrown to him pretty much.

I like James and Jordy but if I had to pick one over the other, it would be Jordy.

Best five in the league. NFL network, last night, our receiver corps, while discussing our matchup against AZ. My kind of problem. Like I said, f#ck a bunch of Crabdouche when you have a BJ Raji on the board.

Jones over Jordy. Jones is under-rated by most, except our QB in the clutch, imo. Aaron really trusts Jones. Nothing wrong with Jordy, though.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
