About Colton
Expert Analysis
Michael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Nussmeier was another guy who wasn’t as consistent as some of the top guys but his top throws were as good as anyone’s in the camp. He impressed me in his pro day workout with his ability to roll to his right as a lefty and deliver an accurate ball down the field. The accuracy came and went at times but he made some really impressive throws.
