Pro Football Focus sets ambitious expectations for Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix, projecting his ceiling to be akin to Drew Brees and his floor closer to Mac Jones. Nix had an impressive rookie season, amassing 3,775 passing yards and 29 touchdowns, showing potential that resembles Brees, particularly in his capacity to thrive under Broncos head coach Sean Payton.

While Nix's high-end potential could reflect Brees' legendary career, his lower-end abilities might align more with Jones, particularly as Nix continues to develop. His surprising performance as a rookie defied the second-round draft expectations from analysts.
