Nelson makes early impact
Wide receiver Jordy Nelson, the first draft pick of the Green Bay Packers in the '08 draft, has already made on contribution on the field and as a teammate.
Nelson had one of the highlights of the day when he made a nice leaping catch over talented rookie cornerback Patrick Lee.
"Wide receiver Jordy Nelson made a spectacular leaping catch in tight coverage Wednesday at the Don Hutson Center, and the first teammate to greet the rookie with a congratulatory chest bump was veteran Donald Driver," reports Mike Vandermause of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
On top of the catch, it's nice to see Nelson fit in. On one hand, he could be viewed as a threat to this deep receiving corps. On the other hand, he's only going to make the group better so he might as well be embraced.
