According to his
NFL.com scouting report, the 6-3, 217-pound Nelson is similar to Texans wideout Kevin Walter -- a capable slot receiver who can be physical over the middle. Like Walter and Cleveland's Joe Jurevicius, Nelson is not going to win an Olympic sprint, but he has become a savvy route runner and shows good courage going for the ball in a crowd. He is also capable of contributing on special teams.
