Fantasy Football: Better Late Than Never – QB Edition

Ron Rigney looks at those late round and undrafted values and what to expect from them next season using FantasyPros ADP numbers from the fantasy 2024 drafts. Enjoy! Follow Ron on X @ronrigney.

Bo Nix – DEN (Overall ADP 192, 23rd QB drafted)

Not only was Nix the 23rd player drafted at the position, but he was also the third rookie QB off the board. On average, Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels were drafted nearly 90 spots higher and all Nix has done is post a 58% clutch rating through Week 12. It took him a bit to get going, but he also sits 7th in total points among all QB’s. Through 12 weeks, Nix has settled in as a consistent passer with 2548 yards, 16 touchdowns and just 6 interceptions. He’s also chipped in four rushing scores and has topped 35 yards on the ground five times. The only rookie QB to outpace him in both consistency and total points is Jayden Daniels. It goes without saying that Nix is delivering one of the best RTI’s in fantasy.

2025 Outlook:

Nix looks to be one of the biggest risers heading into 2025 drafts, not only at the position but in all of fantasy. Denver will have to figure out the RB position as Javonte Williams is set to become a free agent. Audric Estime shows a lot of promise but doesn’t catch the ball out of the backfield. I’d also like to see Denver shore up the WR corps a bit more for Nix.
