Jordy Nelson

While he is not the only receiver you need to look out for, he is still considered the best receiver for Green Bay, and rightfully so. Last season, Nelson accumulated 1519 yards and scored 13 touchdowns. With a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers throwing to him, don’t look for those numbers to decrease anytime soon.

Jordy is a very solid route runner and is known to shed a tackle or two along his way to the end zone. If left open, be sure that Rodgers will find him and get the ball to him.
