Where Should Bo Nix Be Drafted?
Posted: Sat Feb 17, 2024 7:53 am
I've seen several mock drafts where he's gone as high as #12 to being left out of the 1st round completely.
From a monetary standpoint, players almost always want to get drafted as high as possible. However, many of those guys struggle because of the lack of talent around them, as well as the speed of the game.
Personally, I think Bo would be better off being drafted in the latter part of the 1st round.
If he can be a bridge QB and sit for 1-2 years, it would help him immensely in the future. In addition, having a good offensive line, as well as a decent running game and receivers, would take a LOT of pressure off him when he does see the field.
I'd hate for him to be drafted as some teams "saving grace" if they had the NY Jets O-Line. The poor kid could be running for his life every play and getting sacked far too much.
A situation like Jordon Love had in Green Bay would be perfect.
Thoughts?
