Actually makes a lot of sense tho. Kirk Cousins is 36 and injured. HE WAS NEVER THE FUTURE. In two years he’s 38. You really bringing back a 39 year old QB? No, plus if Kirk gets you say 9-10 wins, you don’t have the 8th pick, you drafting much later and this was a strong top heavy QB draft class. Next years QB draft is weak, year after they doesn’t look great but we will see. So you really want to go straight from Cousins to a rookie? The Falcons need to get fans back in stands, sell some jerseys and let fans know they’re going somewhere. The cap is going up $10-15m per year. In two years the Cousins cap hit isn’t even top 12 in the league and Penix still has 3 or 4 years on his rookie deal to go all in on a Championship. IT MAKES SENSE.

I know packers fans who still have some regret over not going for it with Aaron instead of trying to secure the future while also pushing for the chip.

I'm not a Falcons fan, but I think I see the premise. Kirk is an expensive bridge QB, but by year 3 he's being paid 10m. Right now, it's the cost of doing business. Kirk is above average, he commanded above average money. The first 2 years are front loaded. Which gives Penix ample time to learn and get better. I think the Falcons are betting by year 3 Kirk is either not that good, or it's time to let the guy we drafted get a chance. Unless, Kirk is garbage within these two years then Penix's clock gets sped up. You hedge your bet that Kirk will be good for 2 years, then year 3 he's not that good, you cut him, it's only a 10m hit.

I appreciate Ocho’s optimism but he wants two mutually exclusive things to be the same. You don’t pay a quarterback that kind of money on a contract with that many years only to draft the quarterback of the future in the very same offseason. But even if that’s what Atlanta did, Michael Penix Jr. doesn’t do anything to help them win NOW.

@tylerprince3496 14 дней назад

Ocho. EVERYONE WAS SHOCKED BY ATL. I think you're the only one who expected that, or you're just doing that thing you do where you praise every player, every move, every decision anybody makes, regardless if it makes any sense.

Everyone was fine with Minnesota cutting Kirk Cousins for, essentially, JJ McCarthy while having Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison but not a 10,000 yard passer over the past 2 years, Heisman runner up and, arguably, the best passer in the draft. Love the signing. It's lit in the ATL

@calculatedrisk1 12 дней назад

Minnesota didn’t “cut” Cousins. Atlanta was just willing to give him more money…

@srryisuk5204 13 дней назад

I agree with Ocho. Everyone expects rookies to come in and play day 1, and when they struggle, they’re written off as busts, and their confidence drops. Kirk is to win right now, Penix is to sit and develop and be ready for when his number is called, and in the mean time, they can continue to draft around him

Ocho, "Not doing right" by a team, when it comes to drafting decisions, fortifying both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, can possibly ruin the career of a young, rookie player before it ever gets started.

People are saying falcons made a stupid decision on picking MPJ. Yes, falcons paid cousins 100mil guaranteed, but they can get out of it in 2yrs time. Meaning Penix will sit and learn behind Kirk and all the staff helping Penix. As we see it it’s pretty darn good pick and knowing that they’re either going to lose a pick for tampering and they’re not trying to pick in the top 10 anymore.

The Falcons situation can go like Russell Wilson in both ways. When he first got drafted and when he went to Denver. He took the starter job in Seattle when Flynn got a contract and Denver signed him for 5 years and got rid of him in 2.

Penix was an amazing pick: lets talk about it. • Cousins is 1 of 3 QBs in '24-25 • Penix will sit and watch • both players talked post 1st rd • Cousins is a winner • Cousins goes to the PlayOffs '25 '26 • Penix 9k+ yds '23 & '24 • Penix ran a 4.46/40 (was mad🏅) • He knows the plan • He said 'ill prepare as the starter!' • picked Texas apart in Playoffs '24 • He will grow with Bijan drake pitts • ATL has top10 QB room: today ✨️ • ATL aint had that since Matty ❄ • ATL flipped the draft, loved it • A+ pick ( ran a 4.46, not talked abt) • Cousins missed only 9 gms/5 sns ( 30+ yr old comin off achilles, 8gms)

@laserhawk221 14 дней назад

The issue is penix is already old. You don’t sit a qb that is old. Sitting a qb atleast for a some period of time is the best thing for qb’s especially behind a good qb but penix is already old you can only sit him for like a 2 years max

Ocho right tho. Like Kirk is for the Falcons immediate future. He will make an impact next season. Penix can learn from a vet like Kirk. And if Kirk gets injured (hopefully not), we have a solid QB to step in. I get why Falcons fans are upset about it but I get why the falcons did this.

Kirk contract is only really a 2 year deal when you break it down.. They NEVER planned on him being a long term solution. Penix was a smart pick . They would likely been looking to draft a QB next season and next year there are no blue chip QBs like this draft. It was an excellent pick for the Falcons

@eeee7885 14 дней назад

I mean Jordan love sat behind Rodgers for 3. Same for Rodgers behind farve. I personally don’t love the idea of qbs being thrown into the fire unless they’re it. Heavily depends on the system they run, pieces they have, etc. but hey that’s just me. My personal opinion 🤷🏿‍♂️
