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.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
