00:00 The idea that when it comes to the Broncos when it comes to quarterbacks in particular
00:05 Often where there's smoke there's fire and since the Broncos were
00:11 You know bounced into the to the offseason
00:14 There's been a lot of smoke a lot of rumors about
00:18 Bo Nix the Oregon quarterback, right? He has somebody who
00:25 Pro football focus says is a perfect fit for Sean Payton
00:30 Trying to think what's his name?
00:33 Joel Klatt
00:34 compared Knicks
00:36 To Drew Brees, etc, etc. And now you've got an insider in the Denver Gazette's Woody page one of the
00:43 most tenured and definitely well embedded insiders in Denver sports media history
00:51 Seemingly almost Zach kind of pounding the table as it were for Bo Nix and
00:56 in so doing and kind of along the way also kind of
01:00 Forecasting perhaps a trade back. This is what he wrote in a recent column quote
01:05 Not only could the Broncos trade down and draft Bo Nix late in the first round
01:10 But they also would get a selection in the second round
01:14 Which they don't obviously currently possess and a second fifth round choice close quote
01:20 So that's from Woody page talking about Bo Nix to Denver and it's it's not the first time the name's been floated
01:27 What are your thoughts how much?
01:30 Veracity do you ascribe to this and just your thoughts on Bo Nix as a fit?
01:33 And I will say if Sean Payton identifies Bo Nix as a potential franchise quarterback the quarterback
01:40 He wants from this draft class. It would be best-case scenario in my opinion
01:44 I've been pounding the trade down drum for a couple weeks now
01:46 It's having your cake and eating it to getting your quarterback who could be the QB of the future and also stockpiling draft capital
01:53 I like Nix. I just don't think he's ready day one
01:57 So you'd have to have a solid bridge in place whether that's Jared Stidham Jamis Winston
02:02 I saw Sam Darnold speaking at Joel Klatt throw him out there today
02:06 Saking he can have a Baker Mayfield esque revival in Denver
02:09 but Nix is
02:12 Intriguing because his ceiling is a lot higher than some of the other quarterbacks in this class
02:16 And if you develop him correctly and give him enough time, I think I see some Justin Herbert
02:20 Not a Justin Herbert light in Bo Nix. He has better athleticism, but less arm talent either way again
02:27 It all comes down to Sean Payton's evaluation if he thinks he's the guy I'm on board
