[QUOTE="Pkrjones, post: 561213, member: 9982"] Jordy was grossly UNDERpaid on his last contract, but when he signed it he was the #3 working his way up. He's currently a high-production #1 WR consistently outperforming his contract, yet he shows-up and plays his heart out. Cobb can't do what Nelson does, and at this point nobody on the Packer's roster comes close. Boykin is NOT a #1... he's a decent #3 guy with 4.69 40 speed. He'll NEVER be a #1 guy. Cobb might become one, but at only 5'-10", 192 lbs. relies on quickness and smarts rather than blazing downfield speed (4.46). A proven, solid #1 WR in the NFL is worth $9+Mil/year... and someone will pay Nelson if TT doesn't want to. There are potential WR replacements in camp but TT won't know what he has until Sept. or October at the earliest. Nelson's price may go UP in that time, not necessarily down. I'm "OK" with a 4 yr/$38Mil with $14Mil guaranteed ~ that would put him #9 on the highest-paid-WR list and above Greg Jennings. Nelson (IMHO) is better than a few guys that are higher on that list (Bowe & Wallace) but they're over-paid. [/QUOTE]
