Luke Nickel #5

Miami · QB · R-Fr · 2030 Draft · Alpharetta, GA · Milton

Scouting Verdict

Former top-250 national recruit (4-star, QB16) with prototype size at 6-2/220 but essentially no college reps behind an entrenched starter. Developmental ceiling exists on pedigree, but the projection is projection until he plays.

Ceiling · 8.2

2026 rotation (QB2) — some opportunity; significant upside (+3.6) · up-year team · QB premium.

Floor · 2.5

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −2.1.
