First Carolina gifts the Bears a potential franchise QB, and ATL passes on Odunze after giving Cousins all that cash. They really made it hard on the NFC North. Unless the North QBs bust, but from this vantage point it seems a bit stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penix could be 28-29 before he starts at that rate. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrimiv Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Love wasn't a top 10 pick either. In the Love draft, I can't even imagine how badly Rodgers would have lost his **** if Gute had passed on a player like Odunze in the top 10 to take Love instead. Hell, as a GB fan I would have been right there with Rodgers. Edited April 26 by Mazrimiv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to the Falcons, the desperation to get quarterbacks has become somewhat comical. I would say after Williams, they were all over drafted. Michael Panics probably should have gone in the 20's. Finding talent like Rodgers and Love in the 20's of the draft is probably not going to happen again. I think the "Packers" model will become more common place in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody said it last night on social media: the selection is an indication ATL doesnt intend to draft this high again anytime soon. They've scraped along at QB for quite awhile....and hope to have addressed that long term now....which (like our situation...) depends on Penix being that guy. Time will tell.

Day 2 is always my favorite day and double that this year since we have 4 picks. DeJean, Kool Aid, Newton, Tampa, Bullard, Kneeland, Cooper, Colson, Bishop, JPJ, Melton, Hicks, Jenkins... Lot of defensive talent available. As Gutey said, "today is a big day for our organization." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably said “shoot” and maybe even “dang it” With Cousins, it does feel a bit different because he hasn’t been a one team face of the franchise like the GB guys (Favre’s year in ATL notwithstanding). It is a business but obviously a QB especially spending 10+ years at the position becomes pretty entrenched. If Cousins does comeback to the levels he was at before, he will still be a very tradable asset in a season or two. I’m sure he’s not as happy as he would have been without someone looking over his shoulder, but he’s on a new team and recovering from a very real injury. He should embrace the competition and by all accounts in a good guy who will help the youngster grow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
