The Broncos have been actively pursuing quarterbacks in the lead-up to the draft, having met with notable prospects such as LSU’s Jayden Daniels, North Carolina’s Drake Maye, Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy, and Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. Their interest in Nix adds to this ongoing search. Nix had an impressive performance in the past season, amassing 4,508 passing yards, 45 touchdowns, and just three interceptions while playing for Oregon. However, the Broncos may face challenges in acquiring Nix, as they lack a second-round draft pick to leverage in potential trade negotiations. Nix is projected to be selected in the first or second round, with some experts predicting he could land with the New York Giants at the 33rd overall pick. Nevertheless, the Broncos’ pursuit of Nix is a sign of their continued efforts to reinforce their quarterback depth.
