Posted QB8 and QB11 fantasy finishes to start his career despite very underwhelming passing efficiency metrics. Nix is coming off his fourth career ankle/foot surgery and isn't necessarily guaranteed to be as fleet-footed as normal. However, the Broncos' supporting cast improved significantly with the trade for Jaylen Waddle, who can consistently attract secondary attention. Denver has completed just 12 of 67 passes thrown 30+ yards downfield the last two seasons (17.9% catch rate, second-lowest in NFL), so Waddle should help the deep ball. Nix comes in at ADP QB15.
