The Denver Broncos made the right decision on Bo Nix.
have historically struggled to draft a franchise quarterback, traditionally acquiring their most prolific signal-callers through free agency or trade. Successful examples include Peyton Manning, Jake Plummer, and the legend himself, John Elway.
Nix is 24 years old entering his rookie season. His age is seen as a negative by some, but the Broncos don't need a 21-year-old QB who is still figuring out his game; they need a cost-controlled signal-caller who can play now and doesn't consistently turn the ball over. He's ready to take that leap to the next level — if his college stats are any indicator.
"What separates Bo is how much time he puts into work," Lanning said. "He watches more film than coaches. No one is more prepared to step on the field than Bo."When everyone thinks of athleticism, names like Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, and Michael Vick come to mind. While Nix doesn't run a 4.3 40-yard dash, he possesses plenty of speed to keep the defense honest and extend plays.
