Everyone talks about how important it is to draft a QB in round 1 and have the "5th year option" I haven't seen it play out the well over the past several years. The good/great QB' aren't playing the first 5 years under their original deal. After year 3 or 4 they are getting mammoth extensions. Having Penix take over in year 3 may actually save the Falcons some money over the next 5 seasons. I doubt they'd give him an extension after his first year as a starter if he took over the starting position after the guaranteed portion of Kurt Cousins new deal ends in 2025. In terms of playing time, Penix 3 years as a starter would be ending with the 5th year of his rookie deal (assuming his option was picked up). The money Penix would be making in year 5 of a rookie contract would be significantly less than the upper echelon 5 year starters are making now. -
I mean you can see it in his highlights - he has CBs from Yale and Colgate in his hip pocket. Yes he's making contested catches and moving the chains, but those aren't even P4 CBs and he's struggling to separate. -
Working for a season under Adam Thielen (another undrafted WR) should be a positive factor. Some of these issues are correctable. Many kids from small schools not only lack experience against DI schools, they lack the coaching that develops talent.
