Ex-Patriots Scout Compares Potential New England Draft Target To NFL Star

Jim Nagy, a former New England Patriots scout and current executive director of the Senior Bowl, views NFL draft prospect Roman Wilson possessing many of the same traits as longtime star receiver.

“He’s quick, he’s fast, he’s sturdy, he plays big on the ball for a little guy,” Nagy told M Live Media’s Aaron McMann in reference to Wilson. “That’s why the Tyler Lockett comparison.”

Nagy was a scout for the Seattle Seahawks when Lockett was drafted in the third-round in the 2015 NFL Draft. Lockett, a three-time All-Pro for his role as a kick returner, has been a steady presence in Seattle’s receiver room.
