Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Bo Nix

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray noted in an interview with ESPN that he wants the team to improve this season in situations when the original play call breaks down. "It's just we have to be better on off-scheduled plays because, obviously, I have that ability to make extend plays, and we have the guys to go do it off schedule," said the former Oklahoma Sooner. "So, I believe that's an area we got to be better at." Arizona is looking for Murray to make a jump this season, and they're hoping he can get back to some of the improvisational tendencies he displayed when he bolstered WR DeAndre Hopkins as one of his weapons. The 27-year-old has been put in a situation to succeed, though it hinges on his own development. He's one of the more intriguing mid-round QBs due to his rushing upside.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix spent time learning from future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees this offseason, according to head coach Sean Payton. Brees spent 15 seasons with Payton during their time with the New Orleans Saints, leading the NFL in passing seven times, collecting five All-Pro honors, and winning Super Bowl XLIV. Needless to say, Brees could be a valuable mentor for Nix, who is heading into his second NFL season after a fantastic first year in Denver by way of the University of Oregon. Nix started in all 17 of the Broncos' games last year, passing for 3,775 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He led the organization to its first playoff appearance since Peyton Manning led the team to a Super Bowl 50 victory. Nix has plenty of fantasy football upside thanks to his rushing skill set, and becoming a more polished passer could put him on track to be a consistent fantasy football QB1.
