[quote]are forgetting one important factor… Penix is like glass…[/quote] Which is why he was available at #8. He has been completely healthy the last 2 years with massive numbers. It’s a high upside/ceiling pick without having to trade away multiple first rounders to move up into a top 3 position...

[quote]You’re burning at minimum 1 year of a first round rookie QB contract, more likely 2. The most valuable thing in football, gone for a portion.[/quote] This is how I used to view the pick. But rookie QBs so rarely play well. So are you really burning a cheap year if that year doesn’t give yo...

[quote]I think those expecting Bama to fall off a cliff are going to be disappointed. Bama still has more talent then every other team in the nation with the possible exceptions of UGA and OSU. Deboer is excellent at coaching players on his roster and he's left with more talent than he's ever had ...

[quote]That’s a hell of a lot of assumptions and hypotheticals to burn $100m and an 8th overall pick on. [/quote] Every 1st rounder is a hypothetical. Had they taken Dallas Turner, he is a hypothetical. But if Penix turns out to be a franchise player, he is obviously worth the #8 pick and Cousin...

[quote]Do you even see what you've written?[/quote] Assumptions are what every NFL team makes decisions based upon. If anything, this situation is insurance for if assumptions don’t work out....

[quote]Yeah let’s move the SECCG to nearly the farthest west outpost on the edge the conference footprint instead of keeping it within manageable driving distance of 80 percent of the schools and their fans. Because Texas, or something.[/quote] I get the sentiment and as an Alabama fan living in ...

[quote]I like what the Falcons did. They essentially locked up their QB situation for the next 10-15 years.[/quote] If Penix turns out to be great, of course this was smart. But the odds of a player considered to be the 4th-6th best QB in the draft being a franchise QB are incredibly low. In a no...

I could maybe support Drake Maye at #8 if he happened to fall that far. A project with #1 overall talent who needs a couple years learning from a veteran. But not Penix. The frustrating part as a fan is the Falcons got insanely lucky. There was such a QB frenzy that our #8 pick was essentially t...

I’m pretty sure she answered it exactly as it was asked. They are about to have a beach house in Ponte Vedra. That’s coming a long way from Baton Rouge. ...

Horrible pick. You build franchises off 3-4 years of a QB on a rookie deal, not starting him for the first time the year before you have to decide whether to pay a huge deal or lose him to free agency. Unless this is a draft and trade, I can’t understand it. If you believe in Penix that much, trade ...
