2012 Outlook: Solid/Safe Pick

Last updated on Jul-15-2012 by Matt De Lima

Will Jordy Nelson score 15 touchdowns again this year? Probably not, but it is possible for him to improve upon his 68 receptions last year. Head coach Mike McCarthy has already stated he wants to use Nelson more often in the slot, which should provide James Jones more opportunities. Nelson is a low-risk draft choice, but it all depends on where he is selected. If he can be drafted as your WR2, that's a great fit. Relying on him as your top receiver is a riskier proposition because it is so unlikely he scores 15 TDs again.

Average Draft Position

Jordy Nelson was drafted in 100% of MyFantasyLeague.com leagues with an average drafting position of 45.47

3.12 FFToolbox.com (Matt) - Will Jordy Nelson score 15 TDs again? No. He's still in the best offense in the NFL though and he'll have huge scoring outputs on occasion.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (July)

3.12 FantasySharks.com - I really like Jordy Nelson's big play ability. Many are predicting that Nelson won't be able to repeat his 15 TD total and I think that's a valid observation but he did amass 1,263 yards in the process and that is indicative of a player heavily involved in one of the top offenses in the league. Good enough for me.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (August)
Aug 14 - 24
3.12 FantasySharks.com - If I knew Stafford would be sitting here at 3.12 (for the first time in any draft I've been in) I wouldn't have taken Brees. Jordy Nelson is the little engine that could and it doesn't hurt being Aaron Rodgers' #1 target either.
