Less than impressed with Atl haul

You also need to account for potential decline of others. Onyemata is on the wrong side of 30. Jarrett is also over 30 and coming off a knee injury.
Also, our DB situation is an absolute mess.
The defense is going to be bad this year. It could be only pretty bad or it could be really bad. But it will be bad.
I dont hate the Penix pick as much as everyone else. The ceiling for the Falcons with Cousins is very likely the Division round of the playoffs. I think Penix with 2 years to prepare and get a proper pro level conditioning can be a good QB. I think thats a good situation for him. If he is good it wont matter than they took him 8th.

Conditioning ? Like get his cardio up?

I think the age angle is pretty overblown. Quarterbacks can play until they are 45 in the modern NFL. Whether he’s ready at age 24 or 26 is beside the point imo.
The bigger sin is the Falcons are punting the best parts of having a young QB, the low cap hit. By the time Penix is established, they’re going to be on the clock to extend him.
