Dan was catching hella strays before this😭😂

As a falcons fan, no matter how it’s spinned, I don’t like the pick. I don’t think fans have any spite or hate towards Penix Jr as well which is what sucks most.

UW vs Oregon State in 2022 at husky stadium. Winds of 20 mph. My man Penix was throwing literal guided-missiles for touchdowns in that super windy stadium. The Falcons team got a GENERATIONAL one.

So you draft penix at 8 to be your backup Quaterback for the next 3-4 years is just wild lol

Calling a spade a spade. Stupid move by the Falcons. Thanks Pat and crew for keeping 💯

nah the pick is actually bad, dan is flat out wrong

Another part of the Falcons decision that makes you scratch your head is Penix being a left-handed quarterback so it certainly changes the offense when he comes in for Kirk. Great player but how can you pass up Bowers or Turner?

Atlanta didn’t want to lose out on all the hype that came along with all these rookie 1st round QB’s ! They are gonna get a lot of primetime TV slots this season I bet ! If Kirk doesn’t work out they will have a good backup ready to takeover ! Wise pick from Atlanta but bad pick for Cousins and Penix because 1 will have to worry about getting replaced and the other might have to sit on the sidelines for 2-4 seasons lol

Seeing Cleveland last year with 3 Qb injuries, I guess this move makes senses especially considering K Cousins age

all I know is madden is gonna be fun this year!

Dan is doing PR for ATL rn

I think the pick is good. I think signing Cousins to that huge deal was bad.

Falcons scouts know ball, man!

Lombo was cooking that man lol

the last 3 drafts the falcons been drafting top ten. relying on one guy is just a disaster to begin with see the denver broncos. lol

Rome Odunze will be a fine WR. Why not trade down from the 9th spot and pick up more draft picks? Then add someone like Byron Murphy II, who can help the Bears get solid pressure to the QB with only 4 defensive linemen and help Montez Sweat. Draft a solid WR in a later round, in this rich 2024 WR class.

As a Bucs fan....I absolutely love the pick.

D/O working overtime to create content for ESPN

I think Dan sort of answered why it was a bad move when he said "Kirk hasn't ever played badly" and had he been there a year or two and this was the last year of his contract then cool but he just signed. As good as Penix is he has injury concerns and he's also in terms of a draft pick long in the tooth

Lombo was the first to say he really likes Penix as a player, but you can't have 2 rolexes. This has been going on for 2 years btw, Olovsky says something dumb and Lombo is the only guy who steps up and crushes him.

DO stays glazing QBs 🤣🤣

Just when i was thinking paying kirk that much as a bonehead move, comes another 😪

Nothing Dan said made sense

Dan O spot on It’s all about the future, yall so small minded and stuck on today and yesterday

As a falcons fan I love Penix for us. I just don’t understand if you rated him so highly why pay Kirk that money? That money could’ve went elsewhere. I would’ve been 100% fine with no Kirk and Penix starting week 1.

My issue is that is an expensive bridge player. And what happens if they make the playoffs with cousins are they just going to get rid of him after that.

I love this move. Its smart, obviously the Falcons are a better with Cousins at QB, but he is coming off a major injury and he is 36 years old, thats why they only guranteed 2 out of the 4 years, but lets just say it works with cousins, they make the playoffs in that weak divison for the next two years, they wont be able to draft a top 10 pick for the next 2-3 years if they make playoffs, playoff teams draft what late teens into the 20's thats why i understand his move and think its smart. Penix sits for 2 years, learns from a pro bowl QB, learns the system and from coaches etc, and takes the reigns from cousins and blossoms into the QB he is projected to be.

If Giants were intelligent, they would take the best possession WR in entire draft to compliment Nabers, KEON COLEMAN. Instant offense.

Always draft your qb if hes there. No exceptions.

I immediately thought the nfc south might need to be scared in 2-3 years when he comes in for Kirk.

Dan carried a clipboard come on man

I will say, if the Falcons are in the playoffs 3/4 next season with Kirko, and they do not resign him after, we will be looking back at this pick in 5 years saying great of an idea it was. On the flip side, if that does NOT happen, this is one o the worst picks in NFL history. But this is what makes the pick fun! I don't know enough about the Falcons to understand their current situation in full, but the rational that Dan explained is 100% there.

Dan and Connor hate eachother it’s hilarious

atlanta BLEW IT lmaoooo

When did Curt Cousins become a savior type player? I’m confused. He was injured and he still got a bag.

@4:52 Dan has really good take

Nimrod pick considering the defense sucks…..

I think we are blaming the wrong guy this is Arthur Blanks fault he approved this pick. He loaded he doesn’t care about paying cousins he just wants to win at all costs

The Carson wentz super fan

🚨🥇🎯🔥🎯🔥LETS GO JAY BOYD 2024 DRAFT PICK🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Dan 'I wont talk bad about any black QB' Orlovsky

Don’t forgot the old hire a seasoned vet to train a new up and comer.

7:00 S.O.B.

If this is the route they wanted to go they should have signed Russ to a vet minimum

I really can't stand Connor... Just listen to the difference in conversation between Connor's question (which was really just an observation, it wasn't even that though) and when Ty asked one right after. It speaks for itself.

I agree with Dan-O! Lombo is just salty about Bill not getting the job… Atlanta is a BLACK city! I’m glad we have BLACK Leaders for our young BLACK TEAM.. Plus Kirk cousins 😂

Dan looks ticked off 💀

😂😂😂😂 7:00 means Dan you didn’t get the hand shake because you didn’t win anything. They been setting him up and I bet pat knew 😂😂

Is it me or do this guys feel like they are taking direct shots at Dan and the vibe feels a little weird!

Dan never is correct on QBs

Bill belichick wouldnt have done that.

We were 7-10 because our Quarterback sucked. How hard is that to understand.

I swear every team w a black coach always has all the black QBs at the top of their board. Like no regard for the talent of the players, just make sure he’s black lol.

Dan is giving a reason for picking Penix Jr... in a vacuum. Atlanta just signed a franchise QB... Dan's a moron.

Pretty sure the raiders wanted pennix, when payton came on he said everyone knew who they wanted but maybe the raiders didnt know atlanta wanted pennix the vikings and broncos both got who they want but the raiders missed out.

HAHAHA DENVER SUCKS. QB DEAD ZONE THERE! 😅

Ew…

Why do people pay Orlovsky to talk/play football?? Joke

McAfee is horrible how did he become a thing. I guess a guy who is talentless can get a job like this give hope to other talentless people like this guy.

Absolutely hate this show

Immeadiate click away if I hear mcaffee
