Nice Connection Time?
So I'm looking at doing a quick nonrev trip next week out to Nice but I can't find any information on connection times. I'll have about 2 hours between flights (JFK-NCE-JFK) on Delta. I'll have to go to check in for my boarding pass as well. I've done this with ease in Madrid, but CDG was a different story. So anyone have any information on whether this is doable at NCE?

I'm surprised no one has responded to this yet. Quite frankly, I think you could more than easily do this -- you've got two hours and ten minutes between arrival and departure, and they don't even open the check-in and bag drop counters until two hours before departure!
I don't know (although NCE is my home port, I almost never fly Skyteam airlines or use Terminal 2), but I would expect that they have automated check-in kiosks, so you wouldn't need to stand in line for long to check in. The only thing I would be worried about is if I was in the very back of the plane, and thus the very back of the line for immigration. I haven't gone through immigration here in Nice in over 10 years, but my experience with them has been that they don't take very long with each passenger.
Even though it's the third-busiest airport in France, it's a small airport. Enjoy the trip, and hopefully you'll arrive on a sunny day
