Packers: Jordy Nelson could be Comeback Player of the Year again

Over the past five years no QB/WR combination has been more in sync than Aaron Rodgers and his salt of the earth wide receiver Jordy Nelson.

Much has been made about his salary in the upcoming season.

At $12.52 million, according to Spotrac, the argument goes, he is not worth the cost. But Nelson is a special case, and remember he has said he is willing to take a pay cut. He has been just as productive with Rodgers in the lineup as before his injury.

Yes he is 32 and lost some of his burner speed due to injury, but his red-zone numbers are stellar.
