I should really thank Bryce, every time he used his legs it was more tense for me than any horror movie I'd seen last year. I thought I was gonna see him turn to dust but to his credit he survived it all.

If you don’t have a qb and could magically get Josh Allen or Trevor Lawrence for two years, but he has to miss the first September, do you reject the opportunity? Personally, I would take the upgrade at QB but maybe I’m just built different (FORD tough).

If I'm getting Josh Allen in October, I'm not drafting a QB at 8, I'm signing a bridge QB thats a decent backup QB for maybe 5-10 mill that can hopefully win 1-2 games and be competitive. Getting Penix at 8 isn't like a crazy move on its own (it's a reach, but if they didn't have a starting QB, its a reach that makes sense, like the Broncos getting Bo Nix). It just makes not much sense when combined with the Cousins contract. Especially not when the GM/coach come out and say they think they are in win now mode and thus won't have high picks for the next few years. If you are in win now, there's so much talent there at 8 that would actually help you win.

Somehow the Falcons reminds me of when the Seahawks gave to Matt Flynn then started Russell Wilson. I'm not sure the results will be the same though.

Android Apocalypse posted:Somehow the Falcons reminds me of when the Seahawks gave to Matt Flynn then started Russell Wilson. It was a bit different because Russ was drafted in the 3rd and was expected to play backup at that point with the hypothetical of being a starter after a few seasons (Flynn was signed for 3 years). People didn't expect Russ to outplay him in preseason.

I agree that neither the Cousins contract or the Penix pick are bad individually, it's just doing both at the same time is monumentally stupid. Like you either think Kirk is good to go and you draft to address one of your many other needs, or you're comfortable starting one of the second tier QB prospects this season and you use your FA money to address one or more of your many other needs. Hedging by doing both makes the team worse, players unhappy, and makes the GM's job less secure. Now you look stupid even if one of the two QBs is great. You either wasted a 1st round pick or wasted your entire FA budget on a backup. Then there's the doomsday scenario of neither being good which puts them dangerously close to being the Panthers.

Declan MacManus posted:the falcons seem to have made roster decisions based on the idea that cousins would miss 7 games a season and penix would step up and be okay, and that this is just sort of how things would be I think the underlying notion has merit. More QBs missed more games per season in the last two seasons than they have in recent history. The longer regular season, the playoff chances, and new safety protocols does imply QB1s are going to miss more time. Having a good qb2 seems valuable. Then of course it all circles back to the discussion of the Falcons in particular… and welp lol.

He is good player (not sure if it will translate to NFL, but he looked great on the Huskies last season), but is catching a bunch of flak because Atlanta made a terrible pick for a bunch of reasons. So his NFL career just starts with the media and fans making GBS threads all over him because the Falcons are dumb as poo poo. He worked his rear end off to reach that point and I feel sorry for him based on the situation.

I can squint and kind of almost see the logic of taking the guy you think can be your QB for the next 10+ years if you really believe he is sitting there. Michael Penix specifically being that guy for all the reasons of age and health and skill concerns is where they lose me. I also have major problems with the argument that they’ll never be this bad again. First of all you are the Falcons why would you say something like that lol. What in your history suggests good decision making and results are coming? And separate from “lolfalcons” you know what makes it a lot more likely that you’ll be as good as you’re claiming to be? A goddam stud player at a position of need. Or a trade back for several of those from a team that actually needed to draft a QB real bad. Not a guy who won’t play a snap for 3 years if your master plan goes off perfectly. If you’re so confident that this is your Super Bowl window push all chips in. Don’t plan for 2027. This rationalization is dumb as hell.

The media concerns with Penix’s skill are too extreme imo. Clearly the nfl thinks so too. He’s a great passer with touch to all levels of the field and for all routes. Who cares if his middle of the field throws are relatively less effective. If he stays healthy with a decent OC it seems like there’s relatively plentiful plausible scenarios where he’s in that tier of “clearly below the Herbert’s and Allen’s, clearly above the Geno Smith’s and Kirk Cousin’s”. The age thing is whatever. Great starting qbs are so rare that you just gotta roll with it.

Totally agreed. I have no problem with it and I think the freak out around the Penix pick is pretty amusing. They really really liked him, quarterback is the most important position in the game, Kirk is hurt and could be again, and I think the Falcons actually have a very good team already so giving up the eighth pick doesn't bother me. Simple as. Can't wait to see him playing, I really hope he succeeds he's definitely my favorite qb prospect to root for.
