Of the top storylines among the 49ers rumors is the potential signing of Jordy Nelson. After Allen Robinson signed with the Chicago Bears, the 49ers may have to look at other options. Nelson is a big-bodied receiver who can be effective in the red zone. Nelson has lost a step and struggled in 2017, even when Aaron Rodgers was playing quarterback. With Marquise Goodwin’s recent extension and quality play from Pierre Garcon, Nelson isn’t a huge need, but could help in the slot along with Trent Taylor.
