BALLER MOVE: Sit in 1QB Leagues, Start in 2QB Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2
ANALYSIS: While Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has logged three games of 19+ fantasy points in his last four games, he also has three games of single-digit scoring and doesn't quite crack the top-15 quarterbacks yet. He's start-worthy in 2QB leagues, but he should be left on benches in leagues with just one starting slot for quarterback.

He is probably worth rostering, though. He's shown an impressive ability to avoid sacks, which boosts his upside considerably, and he's started to put together nice rushing totals with his legs. In Week 6, Nix rushed six times for a team-leading 61 yards on the ground.
Bo Nix is not a guy you give up on 6 games into his career.
He’s got the tools. Just has to be more consistent with them.

Unfortunately, the lack of good weapons in the receiving game limits his upside considerably. The running back room hasn't provided much to take pressure off the rookie signal-caller's shoulders either -- RB Javonte Williams and RB Jaleel McLaughlin, the team's two top options at RB, rank 38th and 69th in rushing yards in 2024.
Keep Nix on the bench for now in 1QB leagues.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
