Positive signalProjection

Historical Packers WR comparison; had 366 receiving yards and 2 TDs as 2008 rookie (2nd-round pick, 36th overall), below 525-yard threshold, but became an elite WR. Community cites Nelson as evidence that Packers historically slow-play rookie WRs and that the 525-yard rule is not predictive of future success.
