The Broncos’ quarterback competition is down to Nix and Jarrett Stidham, and Nix is making a strong case to be the Week 1 starter. With Denver picking him 12th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft, it’s clear they see big things in him. After a stellar final college season at Oregon, where he threw for 4508 yards with 45 touchdowns with only 3 interceptions, Nix has proven he can lead a team.

With the draft capital and Nix’s experience and age give him an edge in this competition . With 61 college starts, he’s got the skills to make an impact. His current ADP as QB27 on FFPC makes him a potential steal if he’s the starter right out of the gate. While he shouldn’t be on your roster at this point in 1 QB leagues, Nix is definitely worth considering in the later rounds in any format that allows to start 2 QBs.
