I think he can afford to expand his farm now, to probably half the state of Kansas.
Packers re-sign their white WR; bad news for Abbrederis and Janis. 
Smart man. No chance of racking himself on that bike.
@brian_mcintyre
Prior to Nelson extension, Packers were spending $9.35M at WR position, 4th-lowest amount in NFL in ‘14. $11.5M signing bonus changes that
If 4-yrs & $39M is all “new” money, Nelson has 5-yr, $42.5M deal. $8.5M APY same as Pierre Garcon, less than Victor Cruz ($8.6M)
Here's hoping he can finally buy a bull to breed cows.
And he stays humble. Still drives a bike with a basket.
Does this mean that Demovsky wass right? Great job by the Packers and Jordy getting it worked out, with #'s on both sides that are fair and work out.
You're Davante Adams. You huddle up with the WRs 3 minutes into your first camp and news breaks about Jordys contract. He spends the next two hours running patterns with Jordy, Cobb, and Boykin catching passes from Aaron Rodgers
Talk about landing in a decent spot. And that's how you stack success.

Whoo hoo, great for Jordy and great for the Packers.
Good for Jordy and the Packers. Seems like a reasonable contract and getting it done before he hits free agency is always a better option.
Interested to see now what they do with Cobb

I read the same quote from Cobb... That's outstanding character and a guy you WANT to give money to.
Translation: "I want 10 million/ yr too but I don't have the track record or stats to back it up yet.
Gimme a year"
Randall will have to make the same decision all of Rodgers' WR's have to make:
Be (1) part of an awesome crew or try to be The Man someplace else
#brainwash
No doubt, who wouldn't want that kind of money? I can't recall the last time I've heard a player say that though.
Sounds to me like he won't be signing an extension any time soon.
Cobb will have an incredible year with the help of A-Rod. Rodgers seems to know who needs the numbers and they all appreciate that. TOG may have hung with his guys. A-Rod makes sure they get paid.
Most importantly on Jordy Nelson's deal is that his 2014 salary-cap charge is $5.925 million. Packers had $13.7M before this. Room for Cobb
Cap #'s: $5.925M in 2014, then $4.6M, $8.8M, $11.55M, $12.55M.
So they backloaded Jordy's, I can't imagine that they will try and front load Cobb?
@zachkruse2: Consider this: Jordy will count roughly $19.3M on the #Packers cap the next three years. Mike Wallace's cap hit in 2014 alone: $17.25M.
How much money do you need?
Last count was "banked 86k". You need to keep up.
