[Saint Droopy]

If you don't want to hear them flame the Falcons... jump to about the 4:07 mark to hear their thoughts on the Saints

That was one of my favorite parts of the draft!

The reach by ATL for a QB that never finishes a season due to injuries, and is old.

All they did was waste a draft pick, piss off their fan base, and strain the relationship with the QB they just signed $180M too ($100 guaranteed).

Classic ATL!

But that’s the best part

And I think we may have won the draft name game

LOL at saying some one in there early 20's old! Are you a teenager?

It’s not about Penix, but the timing.
If you gonna draft Penix, fine. Go for it. But don’t sign a $100 million QB.
It’s like buying a new car a month after getting a used one, but you’re not gonna drive the new one till the used car breaks down.

Exactly. It's an epic fail.

I laughed so hard, I think I wet myself.

I’d say it’s more like first you overpaid for a nice, fully loaded Camry then you bought a box with a silhouette of a car. Is it a Lamborghini? Is a base model Camry? Is Saturn with bad breaks? Don’t know and you can’t open the box for two years!

I believe that Cousins not keeping his trap shut about the tampering issue put the Falcons front office in the position to reach for a QB at 8...because they'll probably have picks taken away in next year's draft.

The Falcons can't seem to get out of their own way and I'm all for it

He's 24. If Cousins plays out his contract, he won't touch the field in any meaningful fashion until he's 28/29. That's pretty old for QB trying to making a first start.

Even if he does work out for Atlanta, that's 6-7 years of good football. And that's assuming their weapons (Bijan, Pitts, etc.) are still there by then.
