NoSaint Posted April 26 Posted April 26 It’s an all time bad pairing of moves to so aggressively chase cousins that you’ll receive tampering penalties and then overdraft a guy at 8 8 3 2 1 Quote

wppete Posted April 26 Posted April 26 That pick made no sense at all. Horrible pick 3even though i like Penix. Penix got screwed also, horrible landing spot for him. 2 Quote
BuffaloBillyG Posted April 26 Posted April 26 It's a weird move but Atlanta likes to make a splash night 1 of the draft. Honestly, not feeling bad for ol' Kirk. Guy has made a ton of money including $100M from Atlanta guaranteed. He gets that no matter what. Plus with the investment they made in him I'd say he's got 2 years in Atlanta. By that time he's 37 and likely at the end of the road anyway. Not only that but he is 35 and coming off serious injury. No telling of he's going to be the same. Quote
Royale with Cheese Posted April 26 Posted April 26 (edited) All my Falcons friends are upset right now. Its a $65 million dollar dead cap hit in 2025. Surely you would want your 1st round, top 10 QB to start by his second year. Edited April 26 by Royale with Cheese Quote
The Frankish Reich Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Breaking: RG3 pissed that Washington drafted Cousins in the same year as him. 1 1 Quote
CNYfan Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I am wondering if Blank has a problem with Minny ownership and was saying FY Quote
NeverOutNick Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Great pick! Penix is a fantastic QB prospect. The not great part is not being upfront with Cousins about it. Quote
DCofNC Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Really don’t understand this one. I thought maybe it was a draft to trade agreement and maybe it still is, like Adams and next years 1st to the Falcons, for him, but otherwise the pick seems dumb. Quote
Buffalo716 Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Penix is a 6th year college quarterback Who has major shoulder surgery... And a reconstructed ACL Great college player and I really do hope the best for him as I do all players.... But man... I didn't have him in my top 45 or so players 1 Quote
Chicken Boo Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Kirk is absolutely right, but it's also not his team to run. ...or is this one of those made up stories? Quote

Captain Hindsight Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I like Penix. He is a lot like Tua and I think he could be a successful QB. But drafting him 8th overall when you signed a good QB in the a win now move makes little sense. There wasn’t a position that could help you win a fairly open NFC. Odunzie/Bowers/OT,/DE? Nope, backup QB. Very strange move Quote
BillMafia716ix Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Very confusing decision. It looked like Arthur Blank was just as confused as everyone else was. Quote
MJS Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Cousins sure knows how to make money. Wouldn't it be crazy if they move on from him next year and he is available to sign with ANOTHER team to start? He is like the GOAT when it comes to shaking down the NFL for money. The secret is to be good, but not too good. 1 3 Quote
