I'm not crazy about the pick, but I think people are forgetting that Atlanta tampered pretty bad to get Cousins over there and they're definitely losing at least one first round pick because of it. They're taking Penix because they don't think they will have a top 30 pick for a couple of years and they need to have a 2-3 year plan behind Cousins because of his age

@nasrichards 12 дней назад

@unc54 12 дней назад

Still doesn't make sense to draft a QB right after you go win-now with Cousins. If they really wanted a developmental guy they should have taken someone like Joe Milton Day 3. Top 10 pick on QB in this situation is only worth it if the guy has game-breaking potential. Like if Drake Maye had been there at 8 I'd get it, but Michael Penix?

Also Penix is going to sit behind a very good quarterback for at least one year, (pending injury) and learn and develop. Look how Jordan love turned out. This is a great move by the falcons.

@nicholasriley5777 12 дней назад

I'm warming up more to it; this was a future move plain & simple. They saw an opportunity to take a talented player at a position they need to secure for the next decade, at a spot they probably won't see again for a couple years at least (be it due to actual season results or potential NFL punishment due to the tampering investigation). Hopefully they can still grab quality players at other positions of need & develp them from there.

@alexerickson6331 12 дней назад

Could have traded down a couple spots and stacked up massive picks and picked him later most likely. Kirk is gonna be there 2-3 years minimum and Penix is already like 24.

Easily the worst pick in the draft. How do you sign a guy for almost 200 million and then draft a QB IN THE TOP 10.

They could’ve gotten Kirk another weapon that they don’t need and still wouldn’t have been as bad of a pick.

It's really interesting the split opinions on this. It doesn't have so much to do with the players or the value. It comes down to the strategy.

I think this gives Penix time to get his mind and body ready for a NFL season. He can also learn a ton from Cousins either way its a win win for Atlanta. You'll have a pro bowl qb and a young qb who is more comfortable with the playbook with weapons all around. The division is up for grabs and you have talent even though its mostly on offense.

@siberiantiger1585 9 дней назад

Hard to argue with the owner's pick of Penix with the 8th pick because Penix is a very high character guy, in addition to all his football skills. If you are betting the future of your franchise on a QB who you believe has the skills to take your team to the promised land, high character has to be in the equation.
