Nicholas Straw brings disruptive linebacker value for Navy
Nicholas Straw’s appeal is his knack for making plays behind the line: in the 2025 season, he started 8 of 12 games and totaled 33 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, and a sack. Navy also describes him as a senior raider, a 6-foot-2, 230-pound hybrid defender, and local coverage has characterized him as a relentlessly positive, unifying, caring presence—useful context for a player whose value goes beyond box-score tackles. He looks like a fit for teams that want an assignment-sound, physical, high-energy linebacker who can create disruption and lift the room, not just clean up after it.[5][8][9]
