Would you take Jordy Nelson?

[Swagger]

Now that the Raiders have signed Tyrell Williams I could see them moving on from Nelson.

If we could sign him on a vet deal I would take him.

He runs good routes with good hands and I think Prescott would enjoy playing with him.

Could provide very good production for a year or two.

Thoughts?

No idea how he played last year, but I don't think they're done with him just yet.

 

[uvaballa]

No he’s done

 

[John813]

Jordy looked great against Miami(who has a good secondary). Probably could of gone over 200 had the Raiders not gone flat on offense/went away from him.
Based off that showing I wouldn't mind him coming here on a short term basis on a "honest offer".

Probably would rather take him over Hurns


I like the signing of Williams for the Raiders.

He was actually my "Dez replacement" candidate last year, so I would have signed him then. But now? When Cooper is here and Gallup is starting to establish himself? I think that ship has sailed.

Nelson did finish really strong last year and if I'm not mistaken, I think the Raiders just paid him a contract bonus to keep him.

 

[nightrain]

He is a tactician as a route runner and would be good out of the slot. Need not be an every down player. Something to consider.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

No

 

[InTheZone]

Nope, pay our guys first

 

[iceberg]

for the love of god why? jordy was a good b player WR but he's done. let him get on with the rest of his life.

Nope, we can do better.

 

[perrykemp]

He has been getting by on savvy for a couple for 2-3 years now. Physically he is a shell of his former self.

 

[Carson]

I just want to sign somebody that will start and or is worth a damn

I don't think he is worth it. Why take playing time away from young guys on the outside? If i remember correctly, Rogers was throwing him open his last few years in GB. We all know Dak can barely hit open guys.

 

[conner01]

I don’t see the need
We have cooper and Gallup
We have a nice prospect in Wilson as the 3rd WR and we can draft a young guy
WR is not the place to spend, though I’m wondering if we spend at any place

 

[Silver N Blue]

He’s a raider

“Our guys” don’t include a #3 receiver, and we need one.

I think most that object to the idea of Jordy do so based on him not being the player he was in Green Bay a few years ago, but we don’t need him to be. We aren’t looking for a #1 or even #2 receiver, and we aren’t looking to pay for that either.

So, the question is what he would cost, and obviously if he checks out physically.

 

[OmerV]

Nope, we can do better.

For the sake of discussion, make some suggestions.

My bad,
I'd like to see if we can pick up G. Tate

Tate is, and would be a good player, but I don’t think they will pay that much, and I’m not sure Tate would be happy going from the 120 or so targets he is used to, to the 80-90 he would likely get in Dallas.

I can't see him getting more than a 1-2 year deal, we can handle that for what he can bring. They have to replace Beas production and I just don't see it happening at 58. Not saying he is Cole but he can probably bring more than the other FA's out there at that position.
