Packers are releasing him and he would be great next to fitz. Bradford is going to need as much help as he can get.

Hmm, interesting, but I doubt they are cutting Rogers favorite target without a good reason, and he isn't getting any younger.

I like the idea of going after Cameron Merideth a lot better.

Nelson's a bit of a mystery to me. I mean, I really don't know how much of his production is because of how good he is and how much is because of how much Rodgers creates on his own. My first instinct is that Nelson wouldn't really make life easier because he doesn't have difference making speed. He and Fitz are sort of clones of each other so I don't know if that would work or not.

I wonder if he's hit the wall or if his injuries have slowed him down. He just was non-existent last year. He used to be instant offense and then just wasn't there last year but played in 14 or 15 games (1 might have been a Ofer)

Still, we should kick the tires.

When Rodgers went down the offense disappeared. Nelson last year was a victim of this and Brett Hundley. Like LIAC said ... Pats or 49ers

That's it, Hundley. Forgot Rodgers went down so early in the season. Looking at his game by game stats he had like 5 or so TD's in the first few weeks with Rodgers.

Salary cap casualty. Nelson could also retire .He has lost lots of his speed.

Jordy Nelson can't run anymore
Biggest hurdle is that he'd be too much like Fitz (i.e. seasoned, slot, sound mechanics). Greatest need is for a big, fast hombre.

While having Fitz and a clone would be nice, The smarter play would be to make that clone a young guy.

Jordy looked done last year. There's a slight chance he could get it back, but I don't think it could happen here.

We gotta stop bringing in these old guys who are way past their prime. Teams that are getting younger are passing us yearly.
