Wrong. Even if he doesn’t injure himself, what’s their long term plan??? That’s why they drafted him. Went through THREE years of Mariota, Ridder and Heinicke. They were simply sick of that shitty QB play and needed to address that position for the future. If Kirk is playing like he has been, the Falcons aren’t picking Top 10 any time soon, so they would miss out on QBs of next years draft and possibly the year after. It’s common sense that people aren’t understanding. Get your guy while you can, don’t wait on the missed opportunity to say “we could’ve” or “we should’ve”. If he’s there, RIGHT NOW, you take him. And that’s what they did.

just read a comment by "@Sho-nuff427" saying the owner wanted Cousins for whatever price but the coaches wanted Penix.

Marcus said it perfectly. Penix’s talent isn’t the issue, which outside of injuries makes him easily a top 3-4 QB. It’s how much they just paid Cousins. If they were going to use the 8th pick for a QB, the should have found a cheaper bridge QB, or gotten a younger project QB like Justin Fields, Mac Jones, or Zac Wilson as competition or a backup role for a cheap 6th rounder.

The best player available was a QB. You dont draft a guy thats 20th on your big board and not draft a guy that 3rd on your board. Age isn't as important at QB. And if you see yourself a QB you like then you go get them.

In 4 years when Penix is a top 10 qb for the next ten years nobody will caee

stop comparing a 21 year old Jordan Love sitting to a player who will be 24 next month, it's a difference and just like Mena said if he hypothetically plays 2 years from now, they will have a deadcap hit and will already be 2 years behind in his rookie deal. It was a bad pick because of what you paid Kirk a month ago, I like Penix but ATL is trippin on this one

A rookie pash rusher is never the answer. Falcons history alone has shown that.

Sometimes I wonder y some people hold these titles…I don’t care how good that defenses players that they wanted falcons to take….if the qb play ain’t right u not winning or going deep in the playoffs with the potential of winning it all….and plus u hoping that yur team has a winning record in the years that u got Kirk….so u not going to be picking this high no more…so take the qb of the future….and u can always find a pass rusher…but wats hard to find is a good QB…and people always complain about not giving these QBs time to grow….now the falcon is in a perfect position….to try a good go with Kirk while letting dude learn for at least a year…now in that year if he really shows progress then I’m sure the falcons will be happy to eat cap hit…cause they legit have good talent…draft the pass rusher in the second round…and plus falcons potentially stopped raiders from getting the qb they needed…forced them to get the best player available

Top 10 picks should be your impact players and isn't something you give away easily. I mean, Rome Odunze was there, someone I think Kirk Cousins would have loved to have.

I think a point they all totally missed was that they could have drafted odunze to play across from drake london. And let the 2 midgets play 3rd wr ..darnell mooney and rondale moore. They did invest in the defense with trice, ruke ororho, and brandon dorlus with later picks. Getting odunze instead of the 1st def end off the board (because you felt the def ends did not warrant a high pick)..but at least getting odunze spells out we want to win now. At the very least they could have somewhatjustified the penix pick if they moved back and gained extra picks. But penix still doesnt make a lot of sense from a timeline aspect with the kirk signing.

Cousins probably feels disgusted because the Falcons drafted his backup but anyways if Cousins is the starter in Atlanta here are his stats in 2024 5,600 yards 45 TD 5 INT 120.0 Rating 7-10 record

I don’t have a problem w/ the Falcons drafting MPJ. They know that they won’t have another top 10 pick for awhile, which means they won’t be in position to draft another QB of MPJ’s caliber, so they went ahead & drafted their future QB & he can learn from Kirk like Mahomes learned from Smith. & let’s not act like K. Cousins is a top tier QB. He’s ok, but he’s older, he hasn’t won in the playoffs, & his contract is only guaranteed in the 1st 2 years. If he isn’t getting it done by the time his 2nd year is done, get him outta there & focus on the future.

Kirk made sure his money was fully guaranteed. But forgot to add a no trade clause 😂

If they were gonna do everything to how Ryan Clark said they would, why wouldn’t they draft JJ McCarthy the guy who’s 21 years old and who has a lot of talent but needs to sit and develop. Why go for Michael Penix Jr who is already fully developed and is 24 years old?

They Drafted A Highly Rated QB For The Future Because The QB They Signed In Kirk Cousins Can Help Them Win Right Now And The Team With A Kirk Cousins Type QB Can Do Just That , And Help Develop The Young Stars They Have In Mooney , London , Robinson And Pitts .. The Falcons Did Not Want Another Matt Ryan Situation Not Having A QB For The Future And Can Not Afford To Keep Picking Developmentally Type QBs Like Ridder Or Fill Ins Like Mariota With These Type Of Pieces Surrounding Them , By Time Penix Gets The Starting Job The Weapons Around Him Will Be Way Better And He’ll Had Time To Develop … Great Pick 👍🏿

I think pennix Jr was 2nd best QB in the draft besides Jalen Daniels

It’s where they took after signing somebody like Cousins, also the serious injury history.

They paid Kirk cousins $90m just to be a smoke screen lol

Bishop Ryan H. Clark 😂

4 teams tried to trade up to get Penix. Trading down would not have worked. At 27, there are QBs that play into their 40s. Suppose he only gets you to three super bowls in ten years. Bad pick? Steve Young, Aaron Rogers, and Cousins himself are examples of good backups that turned out to be good decisions. Cousins has not done well in the playoffs. It's not a bad move.

RG3 and Cousins were drafted in the same year, Cousins was drafted in the 4th round (Not much money 4 years for $2,572,688 with only $472,000 guaranteed) RG3 was always going to be the starter. Penix Jr was drafted in the first round 8th overall, after they just signed Cousins to a 4yr $180 mil and $140 mil guaranteed and a no trade clause. Penix Jr's contact will most likely pay him between 10-13 mil per year for the next 4 yrs. It's not about double standards it's about making sense on drafting a QB in the first round when you just paid a QB.

Mina, You may never know what is going to happen this fall.

They just didn’t thing they were gonna get a good QB in the draft. So they signed cousins to fast out of desperation without thinking and was surprised Penix was available and took it that’s what happened 🤭
