As a broncos fan, I want Nix in orange and blue next season. I think Sean Payton could get the most out of his development at the NFL level. Nix could run a Sean Payton offense very well and that makes me excited.

So, you're telling me that Bo Nix is a reliable dink and dunk passer, but in certain situations he can go for longer passes, and he's got the arm strength and accuracy to complete those passes. How does that imply failure at the pro level?

POV: You're a Broncos fan that's looking to see if he's any good.

3:40 that ask to flip his hips with a defender in his face is a trash take. as a QB he has to go through his reads, the read was there and he got a first down. He's literally doing exactly what his coach would want him to do. You playmake when a decision is not there, not when you get bored. Not to mention he would have taken a sack there or a deflection at minimum for that.

It’s hard for me to really gauge how conservative of a decision maker Bo Nix naturally is because I know his OC would always preach efficiency and protecting the ball as the number 1 objectives of the offense

He's looks top 10 to me for any of the later teams that really need a QB.

That very first highlight you started to critique for the first down throw, if he were to look right, he would’ve thrown the ball right to that guy who was blitzing off the edge, leading to a tipped pass or an interception 😂😂😂😂

If this guy ever starts in the NFL, I’m drafting whoever his RB is and cashing in on the PPR

Sometimes you gotta take a shot. I like this guy's chances

All of Nix's shortcomings you highlight are fixable with good coaching. Herbert had some of the same issues coming out of Oregon and, IMO, he's fixed many of them. Nix has a high football IQ and he's said to be coachable, so there's hope for him.

He looks pretty good to me considering what he’s being asked to do.

If the Vikings could get Jared Verse with the 11th pick and get Nix at the bottom of the first round or top of the second round, that would be an excellent draft, I think. Nix is underrated, in my opinion.

Dude had 4500 yards how is he not throwing enough

I think if he can handle Sean Payton and we can sit him until he’s ready I think the kid has the talent and moxie to lead the Broncos out of the shit show we’ve been in

Now that I rewatch many of these plays against UW, I was shocked at how many times UW jumped offsides or lined up in the neutral zone. A QB has to know how to know how to read what happens quickly and If someone is in your face within 3 seconds and you make a quick throw which ends up a 1st down and moves the chains. I think this is a positive

Bo Nix is the most settled player in this draft he is already married I assume he has kids and he won’t be hanging out all nite like a lot of rookies he will be home with his fam studying his playbook knowing he has a fam to take care of it ain’t about him it’s his fam and this will make him a better player because I believe he will be the most player ready QB in this draft he is seasoned and it will show

He's not falling out of the lottery. Nix will be the best QB from this draft, book it!

Give him the right OC and he will become a good, maybe great QB. If he goes to the wrong place, he's done. His strengths (and flaws) can, to a degree, be attributed to how Oregon ran him. So his weaknesses can be improved upon with good coaching. A team shouldn't expect him to be a first-year starter

Good stuff. I like Bo Nix for the Broncos. I love that he's accurate and good against the blitz. I don't love all the check downs but I feel like he is able to work the middle and intermediate routes better and is a fit for Sean Payton. What are your thoughts with fit there? Also interested in JJ. Have you done JJ McCarthy yet?

This is a fair scouting report. But, I do think he's a 1st rounder.

these things are 100% correctable. You can teach a QB footwork and to step up. I think he is going to be a fantastic QB

I can see what you’re saying but the numbers don’t lie, most accurate passer ever, and there’s a 5 minute highlight reel of him throwing downfield super accurate. Williams is the one always looking to scramble. Nix has a 85% adjusted completion ratio throwing downfield often. KSU and Chiefs fan so nothing Bias, judging on highlights compared to the others. All very talented this year though. Plus like Brock Perty a lot of experience and already NFL ready.

Whoever drafts him is gonna be successful.

People don’t understand Oregons offense. Nix has had full autonomy for two years. Literally anything is possible within a play pre-snap. He makes the call based on the defense. So his “reads” are not the same as traditionally is expected. A single play could have dozens of read combinations - he makes the call based on defense.

If the NFL is smart he will definitely be drafted in the first round. Has a great arm and grasp of the game. Will excel in the pro game. Exceptional when game is on the line.

I think you’re nitpicking way too much on those “checkdown decisions” we seem to forget the greatest QB of all time perfected taking the checkdown he made a career of it and only took his shots when he really needed to I’m not saying Bo Nix will be Tom Brady or anything but why is it bad to take the safe play when it’s there and it leads to a 1st down

He’s a older, shorter version of Mac Jones 😂😂

Great video! To me, the footwork and mechanics can be fixed. Josh Allen made a HUGE jump in his 3rd NFL season due to the coaching staff helping him fix his footwork. The most important thing is Bo Nix is coachable. Kid is very competitive and humble. You can tell he’s set his ego aside and will do whatever is asked of him in order to win. Perfect fit for Sean Payton whose offense is built on intermediate throws over the middle and…wait for it…DUMP OFFS! Thats why Alvin Kamara absolutely feasted when Sean was the HC.

You need to understand how offenses are designed. Guys like him and Cousins run the play as coaches say. Plenty of those “dump downs” are the primary. I don’t like it either, but coaches do because it’s highly efficient and safe. They expect the receiver to make a play for the extra yard or two. It’s an absolute fact that Kirk Cousins is one of the top downfield throwers and it’s that way pretty much every year. These guys play within their offenses regardless of their strengths.

Great video. This is a perfect example of how to make a scouting report. Please keep up the videos on the 24’ class! Thanks for the entertainment 🤙🏻

He's doing what the coach is telling him to do

Bo got noticeably better all year this year, with a 1st qtr. blip in the CCG v Wash. Many people thought the play calling was too predictable before the Ducks made adjustments in that 1st qtr. of the game.

Check down king built his stats against weaker defenses but choked in too many big games especially against his rivals

They said the same crap about Herbert.

I hope Denver drafts him

Anyone here after he was picked 12th overall hearing "maybe he will go round 1 or two"? Lol what a wild draft

Great analysis man! Would love to see another one of these vids for some of the other mid-tier QBs this class - JJ McCarthys, Rattler, etc. Also go Broncos

Vikings fans this is the perfect fit for O'Connell's system 14:42

So few QBs drafted high have been good in the NFL it is fantasy to predict Bo Nix will be good enough to play NFL QB and be competitive and win more than loses !

Perfect fit for Sean Peyton's offense.

you can teach footwork, cant teach arm talent

Bro in the offense he's in he can only do what the plays are designed for. he can't be a super star in a check down offense. he gets in the right offense in the NFL you ppl that probably never played football going to see a future star

Gets the ball out fast after read field quick

Kirk kousins goes to the playoffs. I love how people try to downgrade that. Been a raiders fan my whole life and ide cry for a a chance to win in the playoffs

People knock Bo because of his age but forget Rodgers made his first start at 24 almost 25 and has played at an elite level for almost 2 decades.

I don’t really like this analysis. I think coming off of reads and doing things a certain way is mainly coaching. If he can make the throws and the reads, don’t overthink it.

I think these discussions of him going in the 2nd round are bonkers. He's easily in the top 20 college QBs of all time (IMO and based on stats). If I were drafting him I would expect him to go 10-12

love these videos, do you think that when you show plays you can show the play in normal speed first before slowing it down and explaining? I feel like it would give an even better grasp of the plays being shown. Anyways can’t wait to see more QB breakdowns from you!

He's in a good spot with the Broncos and Payton.

As a Bronco fan I feel better having watched this video. Very smartly done.

If kenny picket can go in the 1rst rd, bo nix is definitely a 1st round pick. even aaron rodgers had risk but if you coach them up they can turn out to be pretty good.

Maybe somebody can educate me but is it all the QB or does some of it come from the OC/head coach/QB coach? Like in Nix’s case, could it have been the play calls of Will Stein? I know in college, they don’t have ear pieces in their helmets but still is it all the QB making the call every time?

I'd be thrilled if the Vikings took Byron Murphy 2 at 11 and Bo Nix at 23. I'd be so good with that.

I’ll never understand. This guy had almost a hundred TDs in the last two seasons and very very few turnovers. He made the right decisions. His only bad game in two years was his opening game against the historically good Georgia D. Nix will look good in the NFL soon and he will endure.

Nix had a phenomenal running game at Oregon.....He was instructed to take the sure thing over a risker downfield throw............I live in Eugene.....Ya hear things..

He is not dumping these down. If it his read progression you do not pass an open read. These comments are ridiculous. So, if he bypasses open reads and holds the ball longer you rate him negative. It's just ignorant. It all depends on his read progression. QBs don't just randomly drop back and just look wherever. They have specific reads and progressions. Your comments seem like a casual fan that really doesn't understand how offense and QB play works.

I love your Cousins reference.

I am sold on him. I've watched him for years and he is great at reading the field almost instantly and if the play isn't there he can check down as fast as anyone in the game. He can also scramble if needed. Love him and expect him to go in the first round. Maybe the Vikings at #11 pick?

I don’t even wanna talk about 3:24 lmao

Seems like a pro level guy to me, dink and dunks to pick up yardage and then he can throw it deep once the defense starts to move up. Basically the recipe Mahomes has done the last 2 years, i think the stat is he has like 5tds or something beyond 20yards the rest are short throws.

First downs is the key. As long as you are getting them and moving down the field, you will win a lot of games, especially if you are keeping Mahomes off the field.

15:00 if Penix is better than Nix why does Nix have batter stats? Penix has a better line, better WRs and a better RB. Not to mention they play in the same conference and Penix doesn’t have to face the best defense in their conference.

As a Steelers fan Bo Nix would be a perfect upgrade at QB over Pickett in Pittsburgh

Play at talked about at 4:00 is a bad example because if the first read is open you take that look. You don't go to the backside slant because its not open pre snap. You can't just throw to a covered area especially if they aren't showing blitz yet.

I saw a whole bunch of good things here he actually reminds me alot of Josh Allen

Oregon fans get ENRAGED if you pick apart Bo's game. He is the second coming of Jesus according to them. His stats are stellar on the surface, but when you watch his tape, you see a LOT of small ball. Dink and Dunk! That is the coaching staff protecting him, and their team. If he was asked to play a real pro offense, you would see the real Bo Nix. That said, he will get drafted and could potentially play well for some team. Still, he falls under the umbrella of so many other gimmick QBs coming out of college with huge stats, only to struggle in the pros (has a lot to do with the much wider field in college). Hope I'm wrong because I never want to root against any athlete and their dreams. But the tape doesn't lie. Only people lie!

The "Pitts" throw is non existent in his film. That was a singular occurrence. Throwing a reciever open is nonexistant.

I think imma start listening to this guy since he got purdy right

As a falcons fan i like bo nix. Every QB has there flaws. It’s about getting put around a good coaching staff to get the best out of you. I really like Daniels just intriguing to me, but if Daniels is gone. Going after a bo nix isn’t a bad idea

Bo, JD, Caleb, Maye, JJ, Penix are all possible prospects that can make a difference for a team. All drafts have sleepers. With the WR and oline in this draft......a few teams will change their fortunes this year

1st play you say he should have thrown to the other other is gonna result in him not being able to step into that throw as there is a DE bearing down on him. 2nd play that was his first read and the backside was blown coverage. It’s possible his pre-snap read was correct the defense just got mixed up in their execution. I think Bo Nix is at worst 4th best QB in this class. I think he has the highest floor and second lowest ceiling to McCarthey

I think he could be the best QB in the draft and being overlooked, but when we get closer to the draft he will rise up boards

He is being coached to take the quick easy yards so we can not blame Nix for the countless check downs

Nice vid. Big Nix fan, wouldn't be mad if the Vikings ended up with him instead of Mccarthy like all the rumors are saying.

BO NIX Will be a future raider in 2024 mark my words BO NIX

He's going to be a Great NFL player...In the end he will be the Best Quaterrback of the 2024 Draft...

We were one game, and 3 pts, away from the CFP? Bo Nix has the instincts of a Pro and part of his maturation process was learning to take the sure thing. Overall, you'll significantly reduce your turnovers by letting your playmakers be the difference makers. And like you said, he lead the COUNTRY in TD passes...what more do you want?

Bo Nix can't throw into coverage to save his life and even he knows it.

It’s pretty crazy that pretty much the top 5 QBs all have a trait that is really good. Like I legit see some good ceilings from these QBs. Daniel’s: faster thinner Jalen hurts Nix: prime Russ Wilson Williams: Tall Kyler Murray Drake: Herbert Pennix: prime Derek Carr/ Cousins JJ: still need to watch. Obviously these comps have to do with ceiling which means good coaching which isn’t always the case. But I can definitely see pathways.

You mentioned "your Denver Broncos" as being a spot for Nix...that seems to be a prevailing opinion now, at least in the Denver fan base. But here is a very under the radar issue with Nix that almost nobody is talking about. He played for Gus Malzahn, the architect of the NHHU (no huddle-hurry up) type of offense Chip Kelly favored, & it's obviously one that does not prepare a QB well for the NFL, even less so when combined with a spread concept. This is the same coach & system that Jarrett Stidham decided to ditch after two seasons in Auburn & another playing for Art Briles at Baylor. Stidham has had to learn almost everything about playing in the NFL after that experience by sitting behind Brady & being in the coaching of Belichick, McDaniels & Payton. Yet despite this, people seem to think Nix won't face a similar problem. In point of fact, it's worth noting that when Nix transferred to Oregon, he actually followed Malzahn's OC Ken Dillingam there. Dillingham took those same Malzahn concepts with him, which is likely why Nix chose Oregon. That's concerning to me. After a third year under the Malzahn type offense with Dillingham, he left & was replaced by Will Stein, who essentially runs the same offense. Nix has had nearly all his college development in the same system that Jarrett Stidham bailed out of after two years in order to learn at the NFL level. Yet somehow people think Nix is ready & Stidham is not. Stidham was considered a probably first rounder also before a terrible Auburn team shipwrecked his last year there. We know how particular Payton is about development. Why would he opt for a rookie to start who will probably take multiple years before he's ready when he has one available already who won't?

It will be interesting to see if Payton does pull the trigger on him bcuz your critique's are totally valid- he is a QB who plays it safe like wilson but in order to succeed at the NFL Level you need to take what the DEF gives you BUT TAKE EVERYTHING THE DEF GIVES YOU... so yes he is a tough evaluation bcuz he will have to learn new things at 24 years old by the time his 5th year option arrives he will be almost 30... that all being said Payton may see his abilities & know that the things he isn't doing can be coached into him... after all that is the reason there is a QB Coach as well as an OCoord & in Payton's case HC with a great OFF mind & QB development skills... so if the BRONCOS TRADE DOWN & turn their 1st into 2 picks at a min to pick up Nix it's not like I will be upset... still you don't know until you see it & at 24 he should already have developed all the proper tech req'd to play the position properly

Good catches on the longer, faster throws he _does_ make. Being able to throw these passes once means he *can* throw them. so that he doesn't do so regularly isn't significant _unless he fails to when he should have._ That's not the case here. Strangely it _is_ the case with the guy he's replacing. Russ looks down one or both sidelines then checks it down. He has led the league in passes *behind the line of scrimmage - for **_five years straight!_* It's a perfect case of how people want to hang onto memes of the past thus not accepting the present. There are people who still maintain that Lamar is a glorified RB. Justin Fields is still the king of this though. Most people are more franchise than player-loyal. So when there's any disagreement between them, the fans end up siding with The Franchise, & usually that also means siding with coaches over players. When the Bears made it clear back about week 5 of '22 everyone got that message. But they also wanted to deny there *was* any message. Because that would mean they were complicit. So even after Fields called them out on it all publicly, twice, everyone acts like they never knew about it. He had to play under an HC who made it publicly clear that he despised him & a GM & team owner who wouldn't support him for over a year and a half. & during that time he made them the #1 offense 3 weeks straight. But because the fans had gotten the message he was hated even while doing that. & still is blamed for their play-calling. Vive La Franchise!

Broncos need Bo Nix

After watching this film I’m actually thinking that if these plays were in the NFL they would be swatted down or intercepted. He needs some mechanical help to be successful as you pointed out

Broncos fans here are crazy why y’all was flaming russ for throwing only to RB and now y’all want a qb that can’t make a throw past 15 yards. The man only be checking it down

Solid Pick give him a chance late first early day 2

i want him in washington he developed alot in my opinion cant hurt playing longer in college

Can't do it, Soon as you said he checks down on every down. Kirk cousins 3rd and 8 all over again... Hopefully the vikings dont pick up this guy xd

You are picking plays. Lanning has even said the play calling was his fault against the Huskies.

I wouldn't mind the checkdowns if the receivers were past the 1st down marker. As a Viking fan I can't take any more of that underneath shit.

He'll be a Raider

I like him overall especially his mobility but I don’t see a cannon or zip on a lot of his throws compared to Williams, Daniels, Maye and Penix Definitely no howitzer here Arm strength like Mac Jones

Bo Nix is going to be a good nfl qb

why are you still not speicalized nfl scounter yet?

The dude needs to work on leading the recievers. Sean Payton might be able to develop him in Denver, but i fear he'll be throwing hospital balls for a while. He gets rid of the ball quickly, pair that with better accuracy, and he might have a great career in the NFL

Bo Nix’s negatives are like mine when I play madden

does he ever attack the middle of the field?

I get everything you're saying but we don't know if he is being taught this will be 1st read, this is 2nd read vs this coverage.

i’d say i would like to see him in black and yellow, but doesn’t seem better than what Pickett has shown. and it seems that is basically a bigger Purdy. if he’s willing to chuck it down the field entering the league, then i’d take him over Pickett. with a fresh new offense coordinator and set of coaches, we could use him for more on the medium to long passes. which we were missing this whole season until Mason came off the bench.

Bo Nix to Vikings!
