Biography:
Pro
2009 outlook: Nelson (6-3, 217) caught 33 passes for 366 yards and two touchdowns during a solid rookie season as the Packers’ top pick (No. 36 overall). Nelson, the third receiver drafted, ranked fifth among NFL rookie wideouts in receptions and yards and caught at least one pass in the final 15 games. He dropped only one pass, and that was the byproduct of a mental error on his route. Also, with Ruvell Martin, was the Packers’ best blocker among the receivers. With his size and hands, he’s obviously capable of developing into an excellent possession receiver — making him the possible heir to Donald Driver — but does he have the explosive ability to be anything more than a guy who turns a 10-yard catch into a 12-yard gain?

2008: Selected in the second round (36th overall) of the NFL draft by the Green Bay Packers.
