No idea, probably 4th - 7th unless he absolutely tanks his pro day. Maybe 3rd if he nails it.

2nd. A healed Nuss will impress in the combines and he still has good reputation among NFL scouts. They blame Kelly and staff. What we don’t know about is if the lingering mental toll on his psyche will affect him long term. Go get em Nuss!

Geaux Tigers!!
F@$k Bama!!

2nd. Healthy Nuss last year was seen as possible #1 overall pick.

He gets his zip back and had a good combine and pro day he will be in the top to mid round 2.

Most ranks have him #4 qb right now. If someone like simpson stays that pushes him up.

Qbs will always be given benefit of doubt and drafted higher cause of position

He will fall to at least 5th round. Mechanics specifically footwork are not good. Throwing off the back foot way too often.


Yes. What's shocking is he is a coach's son and has had every opportunity to improve his mechanics and hasn't.

It's obvious to any casual observer so it has to be something he's been coached hard on with no improvement.

Camp arm, might get a couple practice squad years but will be looking for a real job by his 27th birthday.

I was surprised to see Nuss was still ranked #4 among QBs in draft status
Scouts know he had no OL this year. They'll judge him by last year

Trying to think of a player whose pro day will be more of an inflection point in their career…. I know there are plenty of surprises eg Josh Williams who then make an active roster. Nuss will for sure be drafted, even if as a “project” pick to see if NFL coaching can recalibrate him. Great pro day: round two. Bad pro day: round 7, last 10 picks

He won't get drafted. He will sign as a free agent and try to make a roster

Bottom 2nd- Top 3rd

Teams are begging and gambling to hit on QBs anywhere they can find one..

His arm talent someone will gamble on that alone.

1st or 2nd round…CFL

He might be able to lock up the Mr. Irrelevant pick in the NFL.

What pick does daddy nuss have?


It’s no coincidence the Saints started winning once Nuss tanked his draft stock
