Am I the only Packer fan that thinks that the team shouldn't have drafted Cobb and instead focused on reloading and retooling the defense after the Super Bowl?
@@ericsmith6823 Jermichael had great talent but not a great focus or work ethic. Until the injury. Could have been a great one. Green Bay was unfairly stacked in receivers then.
@@Wolf_3125 Cobb had lots of smarts and was very versatile. Defense was still pretty good. No one could have foreseen the loss of Nick Collins. That was a major blow.
@@davem5333 True, but not resigning Clullen Jenkins, plus his replacement, Mike Neal being a bust, hurt the pass rush and run defense. And losing Nick Collins was also a major blow.
Best sideline catch wide receivers I’ve ever seen. Marvin Harrison and Jordy Nelson. I mean I always thought he was mega underrated. I mean I think he was a top 5 WR of the 2010s. Calvin Johnson, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, DeAndre Hopkins and Jordy Nelson in my opinion. I mean what he did in 2011 was amazing. 15 TDS in only 13 starts. That’s incredible. And those deep post routes were just deadly. Truly one of my favorite players of all time. Great video Throwback.
Prime Dez was very good as well. Jordy and Dez are actually very similar in stats. Jordy has more receptions and yards but Dez has more TDs. Really, you could put their best season stats right next to each other and they’re just about the same. Both were excellent at their best but I just prefer Jordy cause of the more humble nature.
Same here! I think mine is/was cursed, though. The year I moved I forgot my Jordy jersey at my buddy's house that was the year he tore his ACL in the preseason. The one game I didn't wear it is the game where he broke/fractured his ribs.
Yupp. Look at some of those catches. They haven't had anybody with hands like that since him. Adams is great but he doesn't have the hands like Nelson or that ability to turn 10 into 60
Just another down to earth good farm kid. Great role model on and off the field for many. He is my all time favorite player. I am a chiefs fan but When Jordy went to the packers I became a packers fan when it did not interfere with my chiefs. Lol. I watched Jordy run at state track in 2003 when I went for my sister when they were in highschool. An old man in the stands said watch this white boy from riley county run named Jordy nelson. Hes going to be something great. He ran a 10.63 in 100 and 200 21.64 he was a beast then. He holds the 3a state records.
My dad just played in a golf tournament with him just yesterday, he said he was really cool and nice and is also putting together a charity softball tournament in August
This is great to watch, wish GB didn’t cut him so early in his career, he probably had another 5 years left in him with Rodgers. He’s someone you can watch and appreciate no matter what team you root for.
One of my favorite receivers of all-time! It sucks he wasn't able to stay here in Green Bay and have a really long career. Such an underrated receiver and a really great guy.
I like that Nelson highlighted Rodgers' mental game as the asset that sets him apart from other QBs. People talk about his arm talent, which is incredible no doubt, but people don't speak enough on how intelligent of a passer that Aaron Rodgers is.
The man who got me into football right here! Jordy Nelson was so much fun to watch, and had great chemistry with Aaron Rodgers. I miss him still, and was really upset when they let him go. He at least seems to be doing well now outside of football, but still. Love this man and wish him the best, and will continue to wear his home and away jerseys for packer games!
When I hear white chocolate my mind goes straight to Jason Williams from. Kings and other teams. 2nd best player from West virginia. Behind Jerry west of course.
Gosh, after the Packers won the big dance in Feb 2011, you just knew that there was so much to look forward to for the next ten years. We are blessed as Packer fans to have a fantastic team for most of the last 30 years
That is true. Even when Rodgers was hurt in 2013, Flynn never really went to Nelson. It was more Cobb, Jones and Quarless. But he was electric before his injury. I miss him.
@@gretchenortner they could have kept him around as a veteran presence…he literally said he would play for free damn near to stay in GB….plus he was Rodgers favorite target and close friend…now look at where things have gotten…it is a business but like Rodgers said you need to remember who makes the business run
I’m a K-Stater and watched him in college. Then in the NFL. I know it’s a business, but I feel he got somewhat disrespected by Green Bay when they released him. I ran into some Green Bay fans when I was elk hunting and they were upset the Packers let him go. He’s one of the best.
My favorite Jordy play wasn’t even a reception. Lacy was rumbling down the field on a long run and Nelson streaked across from off-camera, on a wide shot no less, passed Eddie and blocked for him. Holy smokes he was fast and a great person, to boot. I miss those days.
It felt like every other week at some point he was beating the cover 2 flat corner and then cutting back on the safety to the middle of the field for a TD
Most underrated receiver of all time in my opinion, could’ve been a hall of famer i feel like people wrote him off as a production of Aaron Rodgers talent but Jordy was just as good if not better then Adams in my eyes. True goat it broke my heart the day he left
One the best receivers to play. It's sad to see the Packers today not having the talented receivers they once had. The deep threat with Jordy coupled with Rodgers' accuracy was a deadly weapon against defenses.
Hearing the name “Jordy Nelson” puts a huge smile on my face. How can you not like this guy?
One of the best!
Easy. I'm a Bears fan 😭
Jennings,Driver,Jones,Nelson,Finley,Cobb probably the deepest WR Corp in history of the NFL on one team
Crazy part is jermichael Finley had the most talent out of all of them but damn injuries

That's awesome 😎👍
@@gjones4207 yesssir, he’s a legend 👍🏼🤝
Same bro
@@gjones4207 same I’m a falcons fan so I like watching great wr’s. I respected Nelson
Took Wilson and DK in my fantasy league yesterday. Hopefully they can ball out again

No way I’m taking him over prime dez Bryant

Really, you could put their best season stats right next to each other and they’re just about the same. Both were excellent at their best but I just prefer Jordy cause of the more humble nature.
I'll never forget that catch against the patriots right before half time. We miss you in Wisconsin Jordy.
Jordy Nelson will always be on my Top 5 all time! I miss Jordy Nelson 😞
Jordy was a freaking beast..
You can tell Davante Adams learned a few of his tricks in their time together.
nelson was my favorite and still is and always will be
One of my favorite players growing up straight dawg 🤦🏾♂️
The first jersey I ever bought. What a legend.
Same here! I think mine is/was cursed, though. The year I moved I forgot my Jordy jersey at my buddy's house that was the year he tore his ACL in the preseason. The one game I didn't wear it is the game where he broke/fractured his ribs.
Not only a great WR, but a great human as well.
The least talked about WR, who made Aaron Rodgers’s job a whole lot easier every week
@Keith Cousins Nice😂

@@-Always_Right- people dont understand jordy was nicer
Yes sir
@@neveroutofbalance365 I think Davante is more complete but Jordy was definitely more explosive and could deliver more volume numbers
Growing up in Wisconsin, I couldn’t have asked for a better role model than Jordy
Nelson is highly underrated
Hall of fame almost type of underrated
God bless 🙏
He was for real a great player. Wish there were more guys like him who weren’t so god damn cocky
He was legit an all pro receiver from 2012 to 2016. And he probably could have kept playing but retired early
The reason why he did is because he didnt want to have to keep moving
@Keith Cousins k
@@unpricedhydra3492 that and injuries
you can’t leave out his 2011 season, he had 15 touchdowns that year.. 😳
This guy was GREAT, not good GREAT! GIVE him his props! Jordy was the MAN!

Gotta love a guy like Jordy Nelson who beats the odds through hard work and determination.
Jordy Nelson, Huge star at K-State and an underrated star in the NFL
Better k state career him or Michael bishop?
@@ericpackers1700 Well, position wise, For Quarterback is Michael Bishop. For Receiver, Probably Jordy Nelson
My dad just played in a golf tournament with him just yesterday, he said he was really cool and nice and is also putting together a charity softball tournament in August
So underrated glad i was able to watch him play growing up. He deserved way more pro bowl selections. Jordy will always be one of my favorite WRs ever
Man, I love this guy
This is great to watch, wish GB didn’t cut him so early in his career, he probably had another 5 years left in him with Rodgers. He’s someone you can watch and appreciate no matter what team you root for.
Jordy Nelson epitomizes greatness, humility, and god-given talent. It pissed me off bad when they let him go.
One of my favorite receivers of all time.

They did him so dirty in the end such a legend!! God bless you and the fam!
People forget in college he put up such good numbers he made josh freeman look like a first round pick lmao
Legend, I'm a Seahawks fan but Jordy Nelson is a legend. Class act never drama always touchdowns. Great receiver
Facts
Air Jordy!! Miss watching this guy on Sundays.
YESS, this man is a LEGEND, mad love Jordy we miss you!

Jordy Nelson is my favorite player of all time
He was one of the most underrated WR in NFL and highly respected too. Sad to see him retire early.
He retired to running a massive ranch in Kansas. I think his retirement job is more difficult than actually being in the NFL
Jordy was dope; definitely a household name.
I'm not a guy who has "heroes," but I always liked Jordy. He seemed humble and down to earth, unlike so many athletes.
Underrated? Remarkably Unbelievable.
Thanks for the memories.
Detroit.
Favorite player growing up. I had his jersey and everything. He will always be my favorite player of all time. Go Pack Go
Jordy Nelson may be the most underrated wide receiver ever to play in NFL. He made Aaron Roger's look good even when he had an off day.
The man who got me into football right here! Jordy Nelson was so much fun to watch, and had great chemistry with Aaron Rodgers. I miss him still, and was really upset when they let him go.

I've met him and ate at his parents restaurant. Really Awesome guy!
Nobody realizes how amazing he was
Him and Donald Driver my favorite WR from the Packers in my 29 years on Earth.
Great guy! Super talented!!!
man you dont realize how much you miss a player and the moments until they are gone. what a team and group of guys
WHITE CHOCOLATE!! - Ike Taylor, former CB for Steelers
If he didn't have a few dropped passes that he made up for He could of been super bowl mvp that year ! Good memories
No he’s just white
When I hear white chocolate my mind goes straight to Jason Williams from. Kings and other teams. 2nd best player from West virginia. Behind Jerry west of course.
Not a green bey fan but I was a pretty solid Jordy Nelson fan.
Gosh, after the Packers won the big dance in Feb 2011, you just knew that there was so much to look forward to for the next ten years. We are blessed as Packer fans to have a fantastic team for most of the last 30 years
Underrated Legend!
Before Cooper Kupp We Had Jordy Nelson 🥶
And the packers gave him a big middle finger at the end of his career..i firmly believe he had a few 1000 yard seasons left
What u mean middle finger? Why did he not go to another team.
Look, I loved Jordy Nelson too, but you can't blame them for making a business decision. He did not play well when Aaron got hurt.
@@introvertedbro5365 he did unfortunately

This young man is surely missed. God’s blessings to you and your family 🏈❤️
I knew the Packers' front office was fucked years before they let Nelson go, I just didn't think they were that fucked up.
Prob why aaron is mad
@@keikun145 *Definitely part of the reason
They let the defense collapse after the Super Bowl. That's was the first sign.
Teams let franchise legends go all the time
Just a great all-around player. Great speed, fantastic hands and footwork , smart...and just a nice guy. Midwest nice!
best receiver we had. and gb gave him the shaft! hired some shoe shine boys
I wasn’t a Green Bay fan, but miss old Jordy Nelson💪🏿💪🏿
Probably my favorite reciever. So fun to watch.
He may not be a hall of famer but he’s a Super Bowl winner and pro bowler, and that’s still super bad ass.
Jordy Nelson is very underrated when it comes to sideline awareness and catches
Love Jordy , small town boy .
Packers WR unit during that era was probably the best since the Greatest Show on Turf Rams or maybe the 2004 Colts.
Hard not to be a fan of Jordy. He did it all with style and class. A far cry from a lot of the selfish clowns in today’s NFL.
Like a better Wes Welker
@@ericpackers1700 welker >>
Love Jordy. That is my dude
great story! 👍👍👊👊
One of the reason I became a Packers fan!!!!!
Seems like a great dude and was a great player. I am a Falcons fan and every time we played Green Bay he torched us. Mad respect.
Love you Jordy come back for the Last Chance with Cobb
Jordy’s super bowl performance was just as good or even better than edelman’s Super Bowl mvp. Shows just how good and underrated he was.
Dude was a beast. Fast and strong as hell. Plus as tall as most TEs.
JORDY! JORDY! JORDY!
The streets will never forget Jordy Nelson. That catch on the sideline against the Giants in the playoffs🔥🔥
Love that man!
Favorite receiver of all time
This guy always came through for me in fantasy
What a credit to the Green Bay organization! Class, ability and a humbleness that is to be admired. THANK YOU 87!!!
Loved watching this guy
Right when Jordy Nelson said Aaron Rodgers was looking for matchups against the Steelers i automatically knew it was William Gay.
John "the Diesel" Riggins was another Kansas farm boy who was a college sprinting star and multiple times 1000.yard rusher.
It felt like every other week at some point he was beating the cover 2 flat corner and then cutting back on the safety to the middle of the field for a TD
Jordy was so talented , great receiver !🐆
Jordy Was So Underrated He Let His Play Do The Talking Definitely A BEAST 🔥
Most underrated receiver of all time in my opinion, could’ve been a hall of famer i feel like people wrote him off as a production of Aaron Rodgers talent but Jordy was just as good if not better then Adams in my eyes. True goat it broke my heart the day he left
Miss him !
One of my favorite duos of all time...rodgers to nelson.
🙏🏾✝️💚(from a NY Giants fan) much respect for this man
Good ole Jordy Nelson
So grateful I got to grow up yelling JORDYYYY each week the packers played. Most underrated WR of all time.
A fan favorite for sure. On of my favorites as a packer fan.
Any CB who assumed he was slow, would pay for it.
J.Nelson wit the sideline catches tho
I miss this man so much especially with all the bullshit going down right now he was just a calm cool presence
More fun to watch than Rocket Ismail @ ND. Fan since the 60's Jordy's my favorite Packer WR
Still don't understand WHY you let this man go Aaron said it we needed these players
One the best receivers to play. It's sad to see the Packers today not having the talented receivers they once had. The deep threat with Jordy coupled with Rodgers' accuracy was a deadly weapon against defenses.
I put Jordy in my top 5.
Favorite player ever
I ain't gone front... Wasn't a fan of the packers but boy it was fun to watch them with Rogers and that core of wide receivers lol
