The deal includes $5 million in guarantees, the source said. There are incentives in this contract that could make it worth $15 million over three years, according to the source.
The 6-foot-3, 217-pound Nelson has emerged as one of Green Bay's top wideouts. In four games, he has 15 catches and a 19.2 yards-per-catch average.
The contract will pay Nelson an average of $4.8 million in each of the first two years, according to the source.
The source said Nelson's deal runs through the 2014 season.

Well then, it looks like our receiving core will include the likes of Jennings, Nelson, Jones, and Cobb for the foreseeable future.

This pleases me.

Jordy has gotten better every year he’s been with the team. He looked great today. I was especially impressed by his production after the catch on quick passes to the flat.

Great, excellent value deal for Jordy who looks to be the #2 WR on the team.

Wells next?

And franchise Finley?

Still nothing for Finley. Although I must say Jordy has proven more than Finley has.

The franchise tag is definitely on the table.

3 things: can we now put to rest who our number 2 receiver is? Jorde beat out Jones, deal with it. Their contracts would indicate this.

And the second thing is, my lord is Aaron Rodgers underpaid. My guess is that we will just read that he signed an extension and their won't be anything public negotiations.

And I'm not even going to worry about Finley, cause Porky is right, we'll pay him the $9M for next year and if he won't sign a contract, then he doesn't want to be in GB. I envision him in Dallas to tell you the truth.

Franchising Finley will be a wise move. He is already one of the best TEs in the league and his price tag can't really go any higher. I hope he stays in GB longterm, but we got to take care of Wells (who is playing his absolute best football right now) and also worry about extending Raji and Matthews next year.

We just have SO MUCH TALENT on this team that deserves to get paid. I guess this is a great problem to have ; )

Great news. Jordy Nelson has come around and has been one of the most improved players on the Packers offense. His skills in getting separation from the DB and his route running is so crisp. It was a beautiful thing when he put that double move on old man Dawkins and I believe at that very moment, 🇹🇹 opened up his check book.

Now EA needs to wake up and give the man his dues in Madden. I am tired of linebackers being able to catch Jordy on a screen, lol.

beast (13h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (13h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (23h) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (23h) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooo 8 point game with 4 minutes to go!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21-Jan) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : what's so funny?
