If you think Cousins has 5 good years left the pick is idiotic.

If you don't think Cousins has 5 years then the signing was idiotic....

If Cousins sucks, they will be drafting in the top 10 again in which they can pick up another QB. They must believe Penix is a generational QB which means they should have never signed Cousins to begin with.

Morris can say this on the evening of April 27 in the year of our Lord 2024 AD, but if I’m Cousins I am going to at least be subliminally looking over my shoulder especially if the Falcons are doing what I expect them to be doing this fall. Although maybe they’ll surprise me.

He’s 35 and his contract is 4 years.

Would it have been more ideal if he was 36 on a two year deal, Penix was 21, and Atlanta would have been able to trade down and get Penix at the end of the first/early second? Yeah, that would have been better, but that’s not the hand Atlanta had.

Atlanta has a 35 year old QB and the opportunity to take a QB they love and project as a franchise QB. In a league where QB is everything and you see some franchises spend 10+ years wandering the “need a QB” desert, it was a good move.

It was a terrible pick no matter how you try to defend it. Both negatives on each outcomes far outweighs the positives.
