I’d much rather try a manageable approach to securing the QB position than end up having to trade
You do realize there is a likely scenario where Cousins is a bust AND Penix doesn't pan out. Then the Falcons have wasted $100 million and a first round draft pick.
The odds of his move being disastrous are much greater than it working out like you describe.

Cousins is as close to a sure thing at QB as you can find in free agency, especially for the first few years of the contract where the guaranteed money is. Opportunities to get someone like him without giving up draft picks or players are extremely rare. Could he get injured? Sure. But he’s been as healthy as they come for nearly all of his career and an achilles isn’t like shoulder, back, or elbow surgery.
Plus, by your logic, if you think Cousins is “likely” to bust, then doesn’t it make sense to go ahead and draft his replacement?

Of course the success rate for QB’s in the NFL is abysmal. But you have to try. Should the Chiefs have not drafted Mahomes since they had just signed an aging Alex Smith to a big contract?
