I think that the folks questioning the reasoning/wisdom of Nate's move to ESPN are missing something ...

Think of this not as a deal with ESPN but a deal with Disney, the parent company.

It's not just Nate able to do more sports. Disney enables 538 to get its content onto multiple "channels" - sports (ESPN), news (ABC), A&E - on cable, radio, books with much greater international exposure.
