    Already? I like him , He was the "hero" last week and draft a big pass catching TE next to him ? would be awesome.

    Good size and decent depth but not the answer.

    Like him as a #3 or #4. Good depth player.

    Nice. Really liked what he's shown so far with an uncanny knack for getting open. He'll never be an elite WR but he can definitely contribute and belongs in a WR rotation as #3 or #4. I know we should only judge players based on their on-the-field play but I was really pulling for him because of the Haiti charity work. It's nice to have good character guys in the locker room.

    Hmm - Is this possibly a signal that the coaching staff is going to remain in tact?

    Good re-signing. He has gotten some chemistry going with Geno and it will only get better now that he is signed.

    Makes sense. He's a good physical receiver with good hands. Not the fastest guy, but he still manages to get open and fight for the ball. He's also only 27 so we are keeping him in his good years and shouldn't drastically decline.

    Thats what I was thinking. Either way Im fine with Nelson as a number 4. Still need to improve our 1s and 2s.

    As 1 of at least 5 WR squad I'm more than fine with this move.
    He's been solid in an unspectacular season .
    Good job FO

    Pretty sure that he originally signed a 2 year deal and that tweet was wrong but regardless good news Nelson will be back. Kerley as the #3 Nelson as the #4 now let's get 1 and 2

    Good signing for a #3/4. Definitely not top 2 material though. Now we just need to find a #1 in the draft and possibly a #2 in FA.

    I like it. Find a #1 WR and I like the WR corps much better.

    Agreed with everyone Nelson was really good for us this season. Blocks well plays hard and has good hands. Definitely glad to have him back!

    Good player and he would be an excellent 4/5 receiver. I don't mind this signing at all.

    I'm fine with this. As others have said, Kerley at 3 and Nelson as a 4 is good. Now we really have to nail our draft and FA to get a true #1 and #2. Add a pass catching TE and we have some nice offensive skill guys on the roster.

    I like this move. Think he can be effective and seems to be fully recovered

    Good #4 receiver. Solid signing. We need a #1 and #2 to go with Kerley (3) and Nelson (4)
