Former Pro Bowl wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh goes to bat for the Atlanta Falcons and their decision to draft Michael Penix Jr on Colin Cowherd's show.
since their decision to take quarterback Michael Penix Jr. with the No. 8 pick, just weeks after signing Kirk Cousins to a $90-million guaranteed contract.
"But I don’t understand the people that were up in arms about them drafting Penix," said Houshmandzadeh."I don’t understand how people could ‘oh, why would they draft Penix?’ Because Kirk Cousins is older, and he’s coming off an injury."“B, a B,” Cowherd interjected his thoughts on what he thinks Cousins is.
“Kirk Cousins is going to play two years. And if he’s playing more than two years, guess what? That’s a great problem to have because that means we’re winning. And so what’s the problem about them drafting Penix?”“If he sits for four or five years, that’s a great problem to have because we’re doing so well at that position,”
Would the Falcons have been better off dumping $90 million of Cousins's guaranteed money into the defense if they were that high on Penix? Would the Falcons have had to move up to get Penix if they were still clearly in need of a quarterback heading into the draft? Would that have been cheaper than what they're paying Cousins to bridge the gap to Penix?
