2018 Free Agency

This is the one guy I’ll be pissed off with. Nelson doesn’t fit here AND he’s actually that old.

Article from last year.....

At age 31 and coming off reconstructive knee surgery after he blew out his right ACL on Aug. 23, 2015, Nelson responded with a season beyond what most could have imagined. He caught 97 passes -- one shy of his career-high total from 2014 -- for 1,257 yards. Both numbers led the Packers, and he led the entire NFL with 14 touchdown catches.

He's only turning 33 in May, he had a down year because Rodgers went down with an injury and Hundley sucked.
 
Jordy Nelson is 1 year removed from 1200 yards and 14tds. His numbers went down last year without Rodgers. This is the kind of signing the Ravens pounce on.

Cut maclin and offer Nelson a 2 year deal

Exactly, he fits the veteran WR we love to sign in the off season. Pair him with Moore or Ridley then we'll be good.
 
They had Lee, Robinson, Hurns and Fournette. We don't have anything vaguely resembling that.
We have an QB who’s a hell of a lot better. And a better oline. That offense didn’t get them to the playoffs. That defense did. That offense was merely adaquate. We can get it to that point, there’s literally nowhere to go but up
 
The Jets are rolling with Bridgewater and McCown at QB as they just re-signed Josh McCown. If I'm the Jets GM, I see what Teddy has to offer and skip on a QB this year. Bridgewater is only 25 so he can still prove to be a franchise guy for someone.
 
Wtf is wrong with all of you???? You cry that we dont go after recievers but the moment one gets released who might be a good fit everyone says HELL NO HE SUCKS!!!!!
He’s going to be 33, injury prone, and had the benefit of playing with the best QB of the nfl.
No thanks. He’d instantly be the best guy here sure, but unless it’s for dirt dirt cheap... no thanks
 
Packers cleared $10M in cap space by releasing Nelson. Packers are in hot pursuit of Rams CB Trumaine Johnson. Only other teams they are competing against is Raiders and Browns.

On the defense side of the ball they are literally better all around the board maybe except FS! From dline to secondary they veryathletic skilled players.
