QB can play till their 40s now lol 

Sure, but making this pick is basically a clear signal the plan is to play Cousins until they can dump him without a massive cap hit and move onto Pennix.

I haven't looked up Cousins exact contract, but I'm guessing it will be at least 2 years until they can do that, and unless he's literally winning MVP's or getting them to the SB, they'll move on from him even if he can still be a starter for a few more years.

It's the Rodgers/Love situation except Rodgers was better than Cousins, not a late first round pick used for the QB, and not right after they signed Rodgers as a FA to a big contract.

Just a really weird selection all around.

Not even close to the same player.. more like Rodney Pete vibes 

You didn't watch him play then.  He's not quite as slippery once out of the pocket, but he can move.  Penix is more of a polished pocket passer than Vick was.  He's a sneaky good athlete though.

Rodney Peete was never anything special.  Poor comp.

The Falcons taking a QB in general here is dumb

But they just took the QB who turns 24 in a couple weeks and now will have to sit for at least 2 season I'm guessing.

If you're going to take a future QB knowing they'll have to sit behind Cousins for a few seasons, why are you taking the oldest guy of the bunch?

So dumb

The Falcons are gonna lose picks when the NFL does the investigation on the whole Kirk Cousins tampering deal so I can see why they went ahead and took a QB now. Take the guy you like now because you'll be too good with Kirk to be picking that high and you'll lack the capital go trade up.

DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, Cole Kmet, and a consensus All American Top 10 pick WR

Insane 

Really got to include Swift too. Whose a nice all around  back. 

just an ideal skill talent set up for the rookie

Doesn’t look like WRs are going to fall. Carolina could have a good pass rusher fall in their lap tho 

Disagree the top three guys were always going in top ten.  Key is what happens next and if you get a run on receivers at end of first.

    • Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
    • I don’t watch college football anymore (used to be Stanford STH but meh), but my wife is Hawaiian and her favorite color is purple, so I guess I knew Tet was my new favorite player to root for when he came out in a purple suit and lei and threw up the Shaka. 
    • AJ Green is who I think of as well; the body control, fluidity of movement, hands catcher, always high pointing the ball with the occasional insane/acrobatic type of grab, etc
