Nelson’s senior season in Kansas State was simply jaw dropping. The stats he put up were ridiculous. He finished the season with 122 catches, 1606 yards and 11 touchdowns. His best game came against Oklahoma State when he had 12 catches for 176 yards and three touchdowns.

NFL scouts like Nelson’s size and his very good hands. Nelson is a solid 6-foot-2 and he didn’t drop many passes in his college career. He’s also regarded as a great character player who was the leader of his college team. Coaches have raved about his leadership ability at every level.

However, not all NFL scouts are high on Nelson. Some scouts see him as too slow for the pros. He also isn’t the greatest route runner and didn’t excel at getting yards after the catch.

The Packers will likely bring him along slowly. Green Bay will most likely return Donald Drive, Greg Jennings and James Jones. Even if Nelson is the team’s fourth wide receiver, don’t expect him to get many passes thrown his way in 2008. Don’t draft him in a redraft, however he’s a solid pick as a sleeper in a dynasty draft.
