    • the falcons said 'we feel we are better than 7-10 and that's why we are not gonna draft you any help Kirk to make a run..we will just about roll on for four years with no money for free agency cause we got you on a massive deal, stock up on middling draft picks hopefully around the #10-12 position for the next 4 years til our #8 draft pick has matured enough to give us another 4 years at the #10-12 position, fingers crossed that's our best case scenario - but we totally believe in you Kirk and remember we are waaaay better than 7-10'

    • Okay... But are they REALLY ready to beat the 49ers come playoffs? Eagles? Nvm the best in the AFC, if they can even make the Superbowl and beat the best in their own division, nvm the best in their conference... Are they ready to beat teams like the Chiefs? Ravens? ​@@d.b.cooper2174 IF they're gonna have a chance, it was almost certainly to have used the money they spent on Cousins, to beef up the roster in countless other areas over the next couple years, while Penix sits behind an experienced Superbowl winning, multi appearance QB until he's ready to start himself... have him sit behind a guy who you could have signed for DIRT cheap over spending SO much money to bring in Kirk... ESPECIALLY when you're bringing in a 24 year old, who's been viewed as the second "most NFL ready" QB in the draft, behind the guy who went 1st overall... If you weren't gonna make a Superbowl like this, it would have almost certainly needed to be using the 8th overall pick to help cousins win NOW... They aren't ready to win now with half the foot in the win now camp, and thinking half about winning in the future, when meanwhile, their fans just want SOMETHING to believe in... One way, or the other. This is a very puzzling move for this reason...

    • ​@@richarddavis4928I really agree with your OP here... It's a really good point... Heck, even if they offered him 2 mil, the Steelers were claiming publicly they weren't interested in bringing in a FA QB, until right before they did pull the plug and traded out Kenny Pickett shortly after he complained... Either they needed to use this pick to help cousins win NOW, OR use them money they spent on Cousins in FA over the next couple seasons, to try and win while you have Penix Jr. on his rookie contract... Either or, but I don't see this "one foot in both camps" strategy working...

Dallas Turner was on the board when Atlanta picked and would have fit their immediate needs, and there are a couple mid-round QBs that could be good as a temporary understudy if they wanted to get a QB in this draft. Or literally, any WR would have been a better pick I feel like for their situation. Time will ultimately tell but I'm with you guys on how confusing these decisions are.

The idea of drafting a QB to sit a year maybe two w a veteran in place is fine but NOT after you just invested 180million at the same spot, legit crazy.. Most likely, cousins will be good but not good enough to hold off penix who will get a chance and be good and the cousin deal ends looking 1000x times worse then the penix pick when his bag stops them from building around a franchise QB on his rookie deal

    • From an article by Alec Lewis….”After years of self-criticism, Kirk Cousins is trying to chill out”….When Kirk was with the Vikings, he was telling his back-up, Sean Mannion, about his experience on the scout team at Michigan State, when defensive linemen would spear him in the back and safeties would pummel him into the grass. Mannion thought that was barbaric. But for Kirk, it motivated him even more. Pat Narduzzi’s defense thrived on bringing down the quarterback at all costs. The ferocity of the Spartans’ defense woke up something inside the quarterback, who described his frame of mind during those practices as “scorched earth. Kirk told Mannion that “The way I’m wired is, if you want to do that, I’m going destroy you.” Kirk is obviously pissed off about the pick. Kirk will help Penix but he also is gonna go scorched earth to silence the doubters that he deserves to be QB1 for many years. At his core, Kirk is a fiery competitor. We don’t get the “You Like That!!!” game unless he cared about overcoming doubt by winning. Rodgers still left but he had already been with the Packers for 15 years when Love got drafted, unlike Kirk. Say the Falcons do "win now" the next two years....you're gonna kick the guy that got you there to the curb (that was just signed) and play an unproven QB and expect that success to continue? And it's not like Penix is the next Mahomes. He's far more likely to be a bust. And that's if he stays healthy. He torn his ACL twice, had injuries to both shoulders and hurt his ankle.

    • If they're (The Raiders) having to depend on a QB coming out of retirement then they're gonna be picking first next year. Their O line blocking is a huge weakness on the team and any previously retired QB won't last playing behind that line. It doesn't matter who's playing WR, TE, or a hybrid combo of both positions, if the QB doesn't have time to get the ball out because of a porous OL they'll never be able to catch what the QB is unable to throw. You could have prime Jerry Rice, Randy Moss, and Michael Irvin playing WR on your team but if your QB is recently unretired and playing behind the current Raiders O line they won't be catching anything other than the reality hit of knowing that they're in for a very long and very painful season full of many losses to come....

  • There is one smart play for Atlanta here: Get Penix out there from time to time like the preseason or garbage time. Next year, take advantage of the (likely) weak QB class and trade him for potentially more than what that number 8 pick was worth this year. But that is VERY unlikely to work out. And they won't even try it because they can't decide whether they're making a SB run or in a rebuild.

  • As a Falcons fan, I was pissed with the pick at first. Then, after thinking about it, it was a smart pick. If Kirk retires early, or worse if he gets hurt (which I really don't want), we're set. Chess, people. He's gonna sit for a minimum of 2 years. I'm cool with it. We're good at QB for the next decade. Granted, we do desperately need a top tier pass rusher. Or hopefully the ones we have bloom. They're all in their first 3 years in the league. But that's our ONLY pressing need. My Falcons are a decently loaded team. A little bit of QB play and mainly a ton of bad offensive play calling by Smith is why we were only 7-10 last year. Also, Lombardi and Mr McAfee were cracking me up lol. Edit: with our current team and especially with Kirko as our QB, we're not going to be picking anywhere near the top 10 for the next couple years. So that makes the Penix pick even more worth it.
