The only reason that Penix was not considered a top two or three talent this draft is due to his injury history. He had arguably the best season out of every QB picked ahead of him tonight. He's not as mobile as the others, but he's not exactly a statue either. He can flat out drop dimes. 

He'll take the reins in 2026, and we're going to have some problems, so I just don't get everyone trying to clown the Falcons over the pick. They're allowing him to sit and learn. That's what you want to do.

I just can't really laugh at other teams making bad picks at QB right now.

Nothing wrong with the QB picked but the whole head scratching is they just signed 4yrs with Cousins.....they can just trade back, add a WR, CB or OL ......

Accurate kid. Big arm.  44 TD's and ehat was it, 3 interceptions? 

Falcons should be happy.

Cousins contract is actually not that difficult to get rid of, by QB standards.  After 2025 they can cut with only 25 million in dead money, assuming they don't restructure before.

Kirk Cousins is the most under appreciated quarterback, by fans, in the NFL. All he has done it produce, and he produces clutch moments. He has had to fight this stigma since he was drafted with RG3. I’d have planned to keep Cousins for a few years and then move on, but taking Penix at 8 was dumb. 
 

Now Cousins knows you aren’t committed to winning now. He could’ve taken them to Top 8 or so offense with the weapons on that team, and all they had to do was add one more. Instead they take Penix. poo is hilarious and Panther like. 
 

rivals? No, friends in misery.

Cousins is a descent player but not exceptional. He's 35 and only has one playoff win.

      Carolina Panthers a Wild Card Team?

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      It's just a talking head.  Talking about gambling. If anybody takes the under on 4.5 wins, they're most likely losing their money.   So he's only saying if you want to bet on a possible sleeper, take the over.  It's not rocket science.  Pathetic that so many on the huddle have reduced themselves to posting purely trash every time they hit the submit button.

      I mean I think the best case scenario has to hit for the Panthers and everyone else in the NFCS has to hit their worst case scenario.  Personally, I think this is the year that NO finally collapses and I think they finish 4th in the division regardless.  ATL is overrated but still likely a 6-9 win team. TB plays tough football, their defense will be there but their success depends on the offense, they too are a 6-9 win team.  The Panthers are probably 4-6 wins at best. If they find some sort of momentum during the season and get 7-8 wins, and TB and ATL struggle then maybe but I find it very unlikely.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By 45catfan · Posted

      We screwed up a couple years ago taking Bryce in the first place.  Nobody held a gun to our head to jump from #9 to #1.  Most people who keep up with draft news knew this 2024 QB class was loaded and we should have waited, which I advocated. It was a dumb move and I knew it.  Now we have to roll with Bryce another year.  That's fine, because this 2025 class isn't that great.  I like Ewers, but not super high on him.  If Bryce shows improvement, which I think he will, that should get him at least one more season before we have to decide on if he's the permanent answer or not.  I've said before, the 2026 draft is the next window for a franchise QB if Bryce isn't the answer. Bryce gets this year and next at a minimum.
