I think situation would be really good for Nickel.I'd pass on Beck. i get the argument in favor of him, but I think Nickel is the real deal, I think he is the future, and you risk Nickel either looking elsewhere or, more likely, rotting on the bench for the year. Beck to me is not elite, so is it to go 9-3 instead of 8-4? I'd let Nickel start and see what he can do. The " learn from the veteran" narrative is overplayed. They learn by playing.
He would be getting starter reps in spring and compete with Emory and Judd. The spring would be an audition for both QB2 and QB of the future.
