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 (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that
