+1 to your comment about not using ACI-designed switches with NX-OS. I too, was burned by this during a migratory period.

Not that it will not do the job - just you wil loose a fair bit of flexibility for your internet uplink/s. The best option imo is to go with ASR9k/NCS5k/NCS5500 series. If you're actually planning to add flexibility for you Internet connection, e.g add extra uplinks, either of these platforms will do the job easily. I had experience 2 years ago with Nexus9300 terminating some BGP and would not recommend it. Too many limitations and inconsistencies. This is a leaf switch tailored for ACI deplyments.
