his per-route numbers are QUITE INTERESTING... he was 33rd in separation and 51st in route win rate... his numbers look even better (141 routes) as he was sixth-best in separation and 13th in route win rate. Nailor is the final pick in a draft that could pay dividends and become a weekly WR3 or flex if it all works out.

Nailor's elite perimeter separation metrics support WR3/flex upside as Raiders' clear WR2.

Nailor could emerge as the clear number two option for the Raiders behind Brock Bowers. Faces minimal competition from Tre Tucker, Jack Bech, Dont'e Thornton, and others. Last year posted 10.3% target share, 1.19 yards per route run, and 10.8% first-read share, which are uninspiring on the surface. However, per-route metrics are compelling: 33rd in separation and 51st in route win rate among 109 qualifying receivers. As a perimeter receiver (141 routes), he ranked sixth-best in separation and 13th in route win rate. Source describes him as 'the final pick in a draft that could pay dividends' and become a weekly WR3 or flex if opportunity materializes.
