I honestly don't see the physical tools in Nix to ever play much differently than he's played this season.
He's never going to be someone that should be powering balls into tight windows 15-20 yards downfield. He's never going to have the precision that Brees had that allowed him to be a razor sharp downfield passer.
He's going to be a JAG who relies on scheme and game script to excel.
He's almost a best case scenario for us. He's Alex Smith when he grows up. That works for me.
