Since entering the league two years ago, Nix is No. 32 in AY/A (6.57), right below Jacoby Brissett (6.64) and ahead of Mac Jones (6.56). If not for solid rushing production (23.1 yards per game) and strong pass volume (an NFL-high 1,179 attempts), Nix wouldn't warrant consideration outside of superflex leagues. But especially with his postseason ankle injury, I doubt Nix will catapult himself into the league's upper echelon of running QBs.

STACKED’s take

Nix's poor passing efficiency and new playcaller make him a ceiling-limited fade.

Freedman is fading Bo Nix despite the Broncos' addition of WR Jaylen Waddle, citing underwhelming performance through two seasons: Nix ranks No. 32 in AY/A at 6.57 (between Jacoby Brissett at 6.64 and Mac Jones at 6.56), and without solid rushing production (23.1 yards per game) and strong pass volume (NFL-high 1,179 attempts), he wouldn't warrant consideration outside superflex leagues. Freedman doubts Nix will catapult into the league's upper echelon of running QBs and questions his ability to improve as a passer. The transition to new OC Davis Webb adds uncertainty. Nix has a solid floor but lacks the ceiling Freedman seeks at QB in later rounds, and even if he outperforms ADP, Freedman doubts the margin will be extreme enough to regret passing on other later-round QBs.
