| Raiders | Derek Carr talks up Jordy Nelson |
Fri, 08 Jun 2018 21:10:44 -0700
Oakland Raiders QB Derek Carr praised WR Jordy Nelson's attention to detail and said he understands why Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers loved throwing to Nelson.
Fantasy Tip: If Nelson can continue to develop a chemistry with Carr, there is no reason he can't provide WR3 production in 2018.

| Raiders | Amari Cooper learning from Jordy Nelson |
Sat, 26 May 2018 20:55:56 -0700
Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper said he has been learning a lot from WR Jordy Nelson.
Fantasy Tip: Cooper is coming off his worst season as a pro, but the offseason additions of Nelson and Martavis Bryant could make life easier for Cooper. He is capable of flirting with WR1 status, and he should be available for a WR2 cost after his rough 2017 campaign.

| Raiders | Jordy Nelson, Oakland agree to terms |
Thu, 15 Mar 2018 13:08:26 -0700
Free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Raiders) agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Oakland Raiders Thursday, March 15, worth $15 million. The deal includes $13 million in guaranteed money.
Fantasy Tip: Nelson should be one of the starting receivers for the Raiders in 2018 after they released Michael Crabtree. He is coming off a disappointing 2017 season but should still be a reliable fantasy receiver. Owners in most leagues should consider Nelson as a No. 2 or No. 3 receiver.

| Raiders | Jordy Nelson not a sure thing for Raiders |
Thu, 15 Mar 2018 11:20:34 -0700
Free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Packers) is not a done deal for the Oakland Raiders. The New Orleans Saints are pushing hard for Nelson and the Seattle Seahawks also remain interested.
Fantasy Tip: Nelson is now one of the most popular names in free agency and is obviously in high demand. He has a lost a step or two with injury and age, but his size and speed make him a valuable asset in any offense. He'll be a solid fit in any of those offenses and can be drafted as a WR3 if he's healthy.

Thu, 15 Mar 2018 08:47:50 -0700
Free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Packers) is being sought to sign by the Oakland Raiders after a positive visit. The team would release WR Michael Crabtree if a deal is done.
Fantasy Tip: Nelson doesn't have the WR1 clout anymore, but he can be a good WR2 in PPR formats.

Wed, 14 Mar 2018 09:27:05 -0700

Wed, 14 Mar 2018 09:19:35 -0700

| Raiders | Jordy Nelson to visit Oakland |
Tue, 13 Mar 2018 18:52:20 -0700
Updating a previous report, free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Packers) will visit the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday, March 14, a source said.
Fantasy Tip: The Raiders already have Michael Crabtree and Amari Cooper, but Nelson would be a nice complementary receiver. He is no longer a No. 1 receiver at this juncture of his career, but he still could be a useful player. If he were to join Oakland, they would have quite the potent passing offense.

| Patriots | Jordy Nelson eyeing New England? |
Tue, 13 Mar 2018 18:51:23 -0700
Free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Packers) was aware the Green Bay Packers intended to release him Tuesday, March 13, and has already targeted the New England Patriots as his next team, according to a source.
Fantasy Tip: Nelson is coming off a poor 2017 and will turn 33 in late May, but New England would be an interesting fit. It's hard to imagine he would be willing to be a fourth receiver for the Patriots and would likely push Chris Hogan for a starting job while also offering the team insurance against another Julian Edelman injury. His days of being a fantasy WR1 are probably over, but New England would give him a shot at WR3 value if he wins a starting job.

| NFL | Jordy Nelson wants to play |
Tue, 13 Mar 2018 15:02:19 -0700
Free-agent WR Jordy Nelson (Packers) plans to continue his playing career after being released by the Green Bay Packers, according to a source.
Fantasy Tip: Nelson may not be a No. 1 receiver at this point but should receive interest from teams during free agency. He has a chance to be a No. 3 fantasy receiver depending on his new role.
