Jim Harbaugh nearly made a blockbuster trade with the New England Patriots for LA Chargers Justin Herbert.

Wow! 5 Quarterbacks were taken in the Top Ten Picks. That oughta show you the dearth of good Starting QB's in the NFL today.

Of course, low First Round Draft Picks are not always the best choices. Right, Mr. G.O.A.T.?

How Bo Nix became a NFL top QB prospect​

Check out some of the plays that make Oregon QB Bo Nix a top prospect for the 2024 NFL draft.

Pre-Draft Analysis​

Nix broke the NCAA single-season record for completion percentage (77.4%) and led the FBS in total touchdowns (45 passing TDs, six rushing TDs) in 2023. He developed into a sound decision-maker over the course of his college career, and he threw just three interceptions in 2023. He gets the ball out quickly and is an effective point guard when he gets a clean pre-snap read. Nix can get through progressions and find the open man given time and space. He extends plays, finds receivers late and makes off-platform throws. And Nix is effective running designed rollouts; he's a threat to scramble for first downs. -- Steve Muench

Matt Miller's pro comp: Dak Prescott

Post-Draft Analysis​

With Jarrett Stidham and newly-acquired Zach Wilson as the top quarterbacks on the Broncos' roster, Nix enters into a situation where he could find early snaps. With 61 career starts during his college career -- the most in FBS history -- Nix will mesh well into coach Sean Payton's offense. Oregon's offense was predominantly run-pass option and there will be an adjustment period for him as he enters into a tough AFC West. -- Jordan Reid

Overall value: Slight reach. Nix has a second-round grade but he is by far the best available quarterback and the Broncos didn't have to leverage their draft future to move up to get him. -- Muench

Second Round. Pick 5 Overall pick: 37.

Ja'Lynn Polk's NFL draft profile​

Check out some of the top highlights from Washington WR Ja'Lynn Polk.

Pre-Draft Analysis​

Polk is a natural hands catcher with the radius and strength to reward his quarterback for throwing to him in 50/50 situations. With body control, he can adjust to passes thrown outside his frame and on back-shoulder throws. Polk tracks the ball well and has the speed to challenge vertically. He's tough and can make plays in traffic. He also runs hard and has the balance to break tackles after the catch. -- Steve Muench

Post-Draft Analysis​

There were 77 players that had more receiving yards than New England's leading receiver last season and Kendrick Bourne is coming off a torn ACL. The Patriots signed K.J. Osborn this offseason, but saying they need to continue to add playmakers after taking quarterback Drake Maye No. 3 overall is an understatement. Polk should be a Day 1 starter. -- Muench

Harposf thinks that college football players going to the NFL draft are a bunch of babies.

Feels like they missed out on the better OT’s with that late run in the 2nd. Also feels like there was better WR’s available when they picked at 37 but I guess time will tell as always

Well Troy Franklin is somehow still available so maybe a double dip at WR would be nice or adding Tez Walker for Maye.

First things first. Get a trust-worthy Quarterback and work from there.

Polk is a strange one... because some mocks had him going 2nd round, some had him in the 4th. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

Glad they've been sensible and addressed the obvious needs so far at least... QB/WR/OL

Yup. Of course, without a Quarterback the football will be hiked to an empty space.
