Something got to give. Sometimes the business side of this game sucks but it cannot be ignored.
Losing a step to age and injury made Jordy expendable no longer being the outside/deep threat he once brought to the table. Cobb and Ty can handle the slot.
I have to believe bringing in Graham and letting Jordy go has something to do with the new offensive playbook being installed.
Hey, Adams on one side, Cobb in the slot, Ty coming out of the backfield, and Graham from the TE position. Who's going to stop that with 12 back there?

Still a lot of off-season left would be surprised if a WR1 wasn't drafted early and/or signed in free agency.

Graham is not replacing Jordy. That's not his job. He's a tight end. Let him be judged against other tight ends.

Maybe they resign him to a lower deal? Kinda like what they did with AJ Hawk a few years back.

Think Cobb will take a pay cut?

Releasing Nelson, while not popular with some, is IMO in the best interest of the team. He deserves our thanks and best wishes for the future.

Now, go sign Jimmy Graham for TE. BG may still need to draft a TE as Graham is not the best run blocker. Also there should be a few two TE plays in the new playbook.

Next, go with Adams the WR1, move Montgomery to WR3 (the slot receiver) and if BG can get Allen Robinson foe the WR2 then GB will have sweet starting WR core. Cobb can be traded as necessary to get Robinson or in a deal to get an above average CB.

Adams (WR1), Graham(TE), Montgomery(WR3), and Robinson(WR2)

Rodgers(QB)
Jones / Williams(RBs)

It would work for me.
