Thanks to bringing Bisaccia aboard, he also landed Nixon. Many do not know that Keisean was a JUCO transfer (2nd team All American) who snagged 5 INT and double digit PD’d in 1 season and suddenly got everyone’s attention. South Carolina pursued Keisean and he instantly became a premier CB, leading the team in many key categories. It didn’t end there. Draft Scout had him as a 4th-6th RD and NFL.com solid 6th-7th Rd prospect. After going UDFA he was snatched by the Raiders. Brian pursued him and in 2022,2023 seasons he earned ALL PRO-1 KR consecutive seasons and dabbled in MLF Offense. Yet he was always a CB. in his very 1st NFL starting season at CB? He PFF graded 64.5% (55% is about the mean at CB) His Pass Rush grade?? 92.7 PFF grade!!  #4/222 CB’s in the NFL  Nixon guy is a total stud for a UDFA and everyone F’d up big time letting him go undradted. With the new KR rule, he’s poised to hurt some opponents. He’s VERY deceptive in space. He always has been, in JUCO in His first season he returned 2 KR TD’s. He’s a Standout Elite KR and very likely has growth left at CB. Gute gets an A+ for landing and retaining this player. In a 2019 draft retake he’d go Top 75 overall and I’m being conservative if I were laying $$ I’d put him at #65 overall.</blockquote>
