Oregon's Bo Nix was the sixth quarterback taken in the first round with the No. 12 overall pick by the Denver Broncos. He'll compete for the starting job.
Some NFL Draft history was made in Detroit Thursday night when the Denver Broncos took Oregon quarterback Bo Nix with the No. 12 overall pick. Nix was the sixth quarterback taken in the first round, making it the fewest number of picks by which that many signal-callers were selected in NFL Draft history. The stunner was Michael Penix Jr. being selected by the Atlanta Falcons. But after the Minnesota Vikings traded with the New York Jets to land J.J. McCarthy at No.
However, that marriage didn't last long. Denver released him and eat tons of dead cap money to make way for a new era at quarterback. Can Nix solidify the quarterback of the future role in year one? Or will he need time to develop in Payton's system at Mile High? Nix began his collegiate career at Auburn, where he played three seasons but never really shined with the Tigers.
