There are only two reason i can think to make this pick make sense. 1- falcons could be worried about kirk cousins staying healthy but like you said penix age and the money they gave cousins makes no sense. 2- Arthur blank isnt a great owner but is usually aggressive when he wants something, saying that they havent had a first round qb since matt ryan in 2008 so maybe they want to have the future secured. But then again the age of penix is a problem
