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.

wpr (9h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (12h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (12h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
