Overview
Size is the name of Toon's game. The son of former New York Jets star Al Toon, Nick stands at 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, and plays to that size. Toon might not run past many NFL defensive backs, but his overall awareness at the position, understanding of how to play to his strengths, and effectiveness in the run game make him a solid prospect. He should be an NFL mainstay after being selected somewhere in the second round.
Analysis
Strengths
Toon understands how to run strong routes, using his size to make a play on the ball and move the chains. Not only is he an excellent mid-range receiver, he also has shown the ability to gain position on defenders downfield and make deep ball plays. He is willing and definitely strong enough to be involved as a blocker in the run game. He is a red zone threat at the next level and a go-to receiver on intermediate routes to pick up the first down.
Weaknesses
Toon is not the fastest receiver prospect, and it can show when he attempts to stretch the field. He has a tough time separating at his size and explosion. Ankle mobility is a small concern, as he occasionally labors at the top of routes.
