Portland, Oregon
FROM ESPN:

7. Bo Nix, Oregon

HT: 6-foot-2 | WT: 213 | Class: Senior
Projected range: Late Day 2/early Day 3
After transferring from Auburn, Nix experienced a career resurgence in Eugene. He recorded career-highs this season in passing yards (3,389), touchdown throws (27) and completion percentage (71.5%). Nix displayed much-improved accuracy, a quick release and better reactions to defensive structures.
Nix plays from a strong base, and the ball comes out of his hand with plenty of velocity behind it. He can get himself out of harm's way when things break down, too, and he rushed for 504 yards and 14 touchdowns this season.

Bo Nix keeps it himself for Oregon TD

Oregon caps a 10-play drive with a touchdown as Bo Nix finds pay dirt from 10 yards out.

Potential team fit: Arizona Cardinals. Nix fits with an up-tempo offense that gets his arm in rhythm. Kyler Murray is the franchise QB, but Nix could work in Arizona as a late-round option to develop.
