Jordy Nelson

1. Better QB
2. Better offense
3. Will net more TDs

Why do you think its not close?

OP was looking for reasons you would take Evans over Jordy.

Jordy but it is really close. I trust a better QB and Jordy doesn't have the dropsies like Evans

Evans was younger and had more targets last year and Jordy outscored him


Nelson will have more targets this year, with a more accurate QB, and a better catch %

Not to hijack, but how high would you draft Jordy this year in 12 team PPR?

Jordy was the #3 PPR WR in 2014, #2 last year (ACL tear in 2015)... nothing has changed about his situation

Id only have Lev, DJ, OBj, Brown and Julio over him. Most others will take Evans over him.

Id be comfortable w/ Jordy at 6

Pretty even


Slight advantage going to jordy because of Rogers and dumpster fire running game.

i wouldn't consider it close because I would think his overall targets will outnumber. Also his Size makes his redzone appeal great in my eyes. And at WR...... i'll take non-caucasion every time when I can. Just like RB.

Jordy will be around 150 targets again... with Jackson in TB I can see Evans similar to that number

Jordy lead the league in redzone targets last year with 35, nearly doubling Evans 19.

Jordy Nelson: Age 32, in his 10th season

Mike Evans: Age 24, in his 4th season


Given the choice, I don't see why you wouldn't go with the guy that's clearly just getting warmed up.

They're both tier 1 WR kinda guys, so we're just splitting hairs here. Hell, my brother and I took Evans over Jordy just last week

Just trying to point out the absurdity of "it's not even close"
