Draft Scouting Report
Rating: 70.95 (Roster depth)
Pro Comparison: Chris Moore
Summary
Nick Nash is a tall, wiry big-slot receiver with impressive leaping ability and a knack for using his frame effectively. He attacks the ball with authority, showcasing strong, reliable hands that make contested catches look effortless. While not overly physical at the catch point, Nash has a solid feel for working back to the football and securing passes in tight coverage.
Despite his angular build, Nash offers surprising YAC value, using lateral quickness and deceptive power to break tackles. He’s not overly shifty but can be tough to bring down in space. His route-running is functional but lacks separation, with slightly labored change-of-direction skills. With average long speed, he won’t consistently win deep but has enough burst to be a reliable possession target. Best suited for a big-slot role, Nash’s size, catch-point skills and YAC ability give him a solid floor, though his upside may be limited due to his age and modest athletic ceiling.

Nick Nash: Plans to sign with Atlanta
Nash is slated to sign with the Falcons as an undrafted free agent, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
Nash spent seven seasons with San Jose State, and in 2022 he transitioned from quarterback to wide receiver. The move proved to be the right decision, and in 2024 he was named Consensus All-American and to the First Team All-MWC after recording 104 catches for 1,382 yards and an FBS-leading 16 touchdowns in 12 games. If Nash does in fact sign with the Falcons, he'll look to establish himself as the go-to option out of the slot for quarterback Michael Penix.
