It's 4:15 p.m., and time for a new feature that we like to call "The Time-Wasting Video of the Day."

With their first pick in the NFL Draft on Saturday, the Packers selected Kansas State wide receiver Jordy Nelson. Even hardcore college football fans may not be familiar with Nelson's story, but his rise from walk-on to All-American to Packers draftee is an uplifting tale of dedication and perseverance.

Enjoy.
