Nate Wiggins Scouting Report
Strengths
Although Nate Wiggins didn’t take part in the bench press during the NFL Combine, you can watch any game on film to see how strong he is. He is physical off the line in press coverage and easily got guys off of their route in college. He showed incredible speed at the combine as well and has great instincts. At times, it seems like he’s able to see the route before it even starts to develop. He hits hard and drives hard on receivers as well.
Weaknesses
The biggest weakness for Wiggins is that he is slow to get his hips turned and keep up with receivers on deep balls. While he does have incredible speed that allows him to recover, he won’t be able to rely on that like he did in college. Another knock on his game is that he rarely turns around in coverage. He face-guards the wide receiver which takes away potential interception or break-up opportunities he’d have if he turned around to face the ball. Wiggins also plays too soft of coverage in off-man and can be unwilling to help in run support.
