It does not matter if the Penix pick will be right long term (like Love or Rodgers or Hurts). The point is those teams did nothing in the short term after drafting those "future" quarterbacks because they fixed future not present issues. Penix may be great in the future, but Atlanta just put their present on hold after spending 180M on Cousins. Also, Love/Rodgers/Hurts were all Pick 20 or later. (not 8). Premier Edge and WR on the board...

No the Falcons did what every team should. Get a QB and get them actually ready for the NFL. Do anyone remember what has just happen to Zach Wilson? Get your future, have a great QB for today, and with a good draft strategy then you pick a needed player in the later rounds where other teams overpay.

Falcons should've got that receiver at #8 that the bears got with the #9 pick. Anyone else think that?

Fox... all of those QBs were drafted outside of the top-20.. NOT TOP 8. Blank just watched as his $100 mill guaranteed to Kirk was wasted. The team didn't get better now, they have a bunch of holes, & now the GM is on the hot seat. If they are picking top 10 again next year, GM will be fired.

I guess it all comes down to how you rate a particular player. Clearly, the Atlanta crew had Pennix rated very high and the Giants didn’t have JJ ranked high on their board. It’s also important to remember that a little less than 50% of QB’s drafted in the first round succeed.

We understand why the Penix Jr pick was made..Kirk can basically be cut after 2 years for minimal cap hit..The issue is if you were going to get a QB at 8, you could have gotten a cheaper bridge QB in free agency, he didnt have to be that expensive..A lot of that money could've gone to sorting out that defence..

Some of these examples they give are higher projected picks falling and a team taking a QB they didn’t expect to be available.

I actually thought Penix Jr. would go top 10 and idk why everyone is so surprised he went 8! As someone who lives 40 min from seattle ,thats watched allot of this guy .. hes special and has the best deep ball out of all the quarterbacks in this draft and its not even close plus hes a seasoned vet. Falcons were smart taking the best QB available as kirks backup because there are some uncertainties with kirk and if he will even be able to play at his previous level coming off this bad recent injury. Falcons are stacked and with Kirk and Penix as a 1 two 2 punch at QB is arguably the best duo now in the NFL for the position. Penix is for sure the best backup in the nfl now and the one problem i see is , falcons now have two great quarterbacks both with previous bad injuries ,which is worrisome. Id bet Kirk is QB1 this season and next season they have Kirk and Penix battle it out for the QB1 spot even with kirks contract thats in place. If penix can evolve and stay healthy ,the dude has a higher ceiling that kirk for sure. Gunna be an exciting year for the NFL no doubt!

'Kirk Cousins concerned Falcons’ decision to draft Micha doesn’t help team this season'. And hes right. I think Falcons rushed needing another potential starter, when they should draft immediate impact players.

As a falcons fan(unfortunately) Bears offense looks really good tbh

Falcons pick is head scratching, but we saw last year that QB's get hurt frequently. Kirk is coming off an injury

4 years!? And what if Penix dips on you then? Playing with that man's career from day 1.

Already speaking Harrison Jr is going to be a hall of famer. Let the cake bake and slow down and we will see

Giants will have different coaches next year, bill belichick incoming.....

If you listened to Belichick last night, basically he thought QBs picked @ #8, 10 & 12 were as good or better prepared to play than the top 3. We'll see if Caleb Williams is distracted being a star. So many side arm throws. Maybe he'll thread a lot of armpits on the DL.

RC is not taking into consideration the possibility of the Falcons trading Kirk Cousins.

RC is a W. Thank you RC 💯

Should've just taken Rattler or Milton later.

I don't mind ATL taking a QB, but why this year and why at #8!? The dude will be 25 at minimum when he starts!

MT is a clown. Penix to Atl is a great pick. Cousins is and has always been a place holder. He’ll be gone after one year. Plus Penix wasnt gonna be there later in the draft. The Saints, Raiders, and Seahawks all tried to move up to get Penix. He wasnt falling past the Seahawks at worst. Falcons will be good at qb for a long time. Great pick.

I agree with RC on McCarthy. You don't want sloppy seconds getting the fourth quarterback in the draft when you can get the top two next year or the year after. Don't force the pick. That's how you got Daniel Jones in the first place.

I really like Penix. He might end up being the 2nd best qb taken this year. He’s experienced and fairly developed. But Atlanta? Dudes gonna be 30 by the time Cousins not getting paid $50M a year. Atlanta going to be looking for a way out of that contract… especially since it has a no trade clause.
