  Packers | Ten sign futures deals with Green Bay    Mon Jan 25, 05:17 PM

Free-agent LBs Tipa Galeai and De'Jon Harris, OG Zack Johnson, TE Isaac Nauta, DLs Willington Previlon and Anthony Rush, RBs Mike Weber and Dexter Williams, CB Stanford Samuels and P Ryan Winslow signed Reserve/Future contracts with the Green Bay Packers on Monday, Jan. 25.

Footballguys view: Weber and Williams are players to watch in super deep dynasty formats. Partly because of their skill but partly because the Packers running back room is going to look different in 2021. Both Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams are set to be unrestricted free agents this offseason.

  Lions | Detroit announce practice squad    Sun Sep 6, 05:14 PM

Free-agent OG Beau Benzschawel, QB David Blough, WR Victor Bolden, S Jalen Elliott, DT Frank Herron, WR Tom Kennedy, TE Isaac Nauta, LB Anthony Pittman, S Bobby Price, P Arryn Siposs, DT Kevin Strong, CB Dee Virgin, OG Kenny Wiggins, RB Jonathan Williams, LS Steve Wirtel and DE Jonathan Wynn were signed to the Detroit Lions practice squad Sunday, Sept. 6.

Footballguys view: There's good old Jonathan Williams, a player we've monitored in deep dynasty for some time. He's big, powerful and natural as a runner but does not seem to stick in the multiple stops he's had around the league.

  Lions | New role for Isaac Nauta?    Thu Jul 25, 10:54 PM

Detroit Lions TE Isaac Nauta is expected to fill the H-back role this season, according to Chris Burke of The Athletic.

Footballguys view: Nauta was lost in the shuffle in the Georgia passing game with so many NFL-bound wide receivers on the field, but he can develop as a third tight end in an offense that will use a lot of multi-tight end sets.

  Lions | Isaac Nauta misses practices    Fri Jun 14, 08:23 PM

Detroit Lions TE Isaac Nauta (undisclosed) did not participate in offseason workouts because of an undisclosed injury.

Footballguys view: Nauta was a seventh-round pick of the Lions in the 2019 NFL draft. During his college career at Georgia, Nauta showed soft hands the ability to use his frame to shield smaller defenders away from the ball. He's not much after the catch, but he can be solid yet unspectacular as a receiver or blocker. Nauta is going to compete for the fourth tight end spot on the roster...if the team decides to keep that many at the position.

  Lions | Four Detroit draft picks ink rookie deals    Mon May 13, 02:05 PM

Detroit Lions fourth-round DE Austin Bryant (Clemson), sixth-round RB Ty Johnson (Maryland), seventh-round TE Isaac Nauta (Georgia) and seventh-round DT PJ Johnson (Arizona) signed undisclosed four-year contracts Monday, May 13.

Footballguys view: Johnson is 5'10" 208 pounds and can make big plays happen with space. He's not a power runner and won't win many collisions, but Johnson does have big-play ability as a runner. His game as a receiver needs to be enhanced as Johnson only had 11 catches for the Terrapins over the last two seasons.

  Falcons | Isaac Nauta visits Atlanta ahead of draft    Fri Apr 5, 10:34 PM

Georgia TE Isaac Nauta visited with the Atlanta Falcons Friday, April 5.

Footballguys view: Nauta is your classic 'move' tight end who can threaten a defense because of his athleticism. He's not the biggest, strongest or most athletic tight end so don't expect a three-down player. Nauta should be a fifth- or sixth-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft for some team in need of a receiving threat at the tight end position.

  NFL | Isaac Nauta enters draft    Fri Jan 4, 07:19 PM

Georgia TE Isaac Nauta has announced that he will be entering the 2019 NFL Draft.

Footballguys view: Nauta had a great freshman year and strong finish to his junior year. He's a two-way tight end with blocking prowess and receiving ability and should fit in the second tier of a strong tight end class.
