Nixon is a great developmental prospect. Lots of speed and quicks but doesn't always utilized it. Very good on vertical stuff, comebacks, out breaking stuff.
Release game is pretty good. Has a little variety, patient can utilize his quicks with stutter, shuffle and hesitation moves.
Inconsistent but has quality ball tracking skills. Hands & eyes aren't always on the same page but he has big play ability and can move the chains.
R/R is inconsistent but he'll flash in several areas. Very precise at times on slants. Crisp cuts and head/body fakes. Eyes the ball into his body/hands. Sharp release & stem set up his deep stuff and he has wheels. Not just speed on paper it shows up. Isn't utilized in all areas but he has burners. Pretty clean and efficient coming out of his breaks.
Has had trouble with size at the line, in route and deep.
Needs some time and coaching for sure. Never quite got up to speed in terms on r/r but there's some potential for a 7th round pick. Not bad at all.
