Nix has definitely shot up my charts too.
My worry is his ceiling is only a decent QB and not becoming an all out stud. I want that franchise guy but I don’t believe he has any less of a chance than JJ or the others in tier #2.
I would love to get Nix at #23 if this all falls through.
Getting into the top 3 is the priority though and I believe the Vikings and Patriots will ultimately be the dancing partners.
Nix ceiling is a decent QB. What I see is the early years NFL version of Alex Smith.
Bear in mind the second worst QB mind here is the one touting him. I have almost no interest in Bo fn Nix. He is the product of a pass happy offense on an Uber talented team playing in a conference where defense is optional. For the life of me I can't figure out this recent Bo Nix chatter.
I just have Nix and Penix, and to a lesser extent Rattler, not even on my board because I don't think they have the upside we are looking for. Every once in a while, though, a 2nd round type of QB prospect is successful. Drew Brees is obviously the top candidate for that medal. But then, Quincy Carter and Marques Tuiasosopo were also 2nd round qbs drafted in 2001. Since Drew Brees was drafted, almost all of the 2nd round qbs selected have been waste of picks.
There have been 20 picks of QBs in the 2nd round. Of those 20 there have been few really successful ones. Derek Carr, Jimmy Garoppolo, Andy Dalton and Geno Smith are the best along with the guy who will keep teams picking 2nd round QBs, Jalen Hurts.
But then you have Kellen Clemons, Tavaris Jackson, Kevin Kolb, John Beck, Drew Stanton, Brian Bohm, Chad Henne, Pat Whit, Brock Osweiler, Christian Hackenberg, DeShone Kizer, Drew Lock, and Kyle Trask.
When you compbine the mostly flopped QBs that were late first round picks, what really is obvious is that if the QB isn't obvious, he is most likely not going to make it... and even the "obvious ones" fail too.
