Quarterbacks J.J. McCarthy, Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix were intertwined during the college football season.

USC QB Caleb Williams is the -1500 favorite (bet $10 to win $10.67 total) to be the No. 1 pick, and the Chicago Bears currently own the first pick in the draft.
LSU QB Jayden Daniels won the Heisman Trophy, with Penix second, Nix third and McCarthy 10th in the voting.
In his latest mock draft, FOX Sports college football analyst Joel Klatt has Nix going No. 12 to the Denver Broncos, McCarthy to the Seattle Seahawks four picks later, and Penix to the Miami Dolphins at No. 21.
Worth noting: The Seahawks are +400 favorites to select Penix, with Husky Stadium stationed about six miles from Lumen Field, home of the Seahawks.
Let's take a look at the odds for which NFL team will draft McCarthy, Penix and Nix, according to FanDuel Sportsbook, along with analysis from Klatt:
ODDS TO DRAFT BO NIX: *
Denver Broncos: +300 (bet $10 to win $40 total)

* odds as of 2/20/24
Klatt's take: "The Russell Wilson trade didn't work out. Denver has to get cheap salary-wise at the quarterback position as a result and find a quarterback who can fit Sean Payton's preference of playing like a point guard. It might be a little high to select Nix, but he fits that mold perfectly. He's an experienced, smart, point guard-style and accurate passer."

Klatt's take: "The Dolphins need to make a decision on Tua Tagovailoa's contract. There are so many advantages to not paying your quarterback. I can see Penix fitting in with this offense and these weapons, looking similar to how he did in college. Imagine the Dolphins getting to start over with a rookie deal at that position while getting to solidify what they've got, particularly at the skill positions, and having a quarterback who's a better downfield passer than Tagovailoa?"
