NFL GM Says What Everyone Else Is Afraid To Say Out Loud, As He Reveals The Truth On Why Falcons Owner Arthur Blank Hates The Michael Penix Jr. Selection

Published

on

The Atlanta Falcons’ selection of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. at this past weekend’s NFL Draft continues to dominate the headlines, having gone down as the most shocking pick of the event.

The Falcons, who only recently signed Kirk Cousins to a massive $180 million deal (with $100 million guaranteed), surprisingly made Penix the No. 8 overall pick on Thursday night, prompting rife debate.

As expected, the topic has been one attracting much discussion at ESPN, with Mima Kimes branding it somewhat illogical during an episode of ‘First Take,’ pushing back on Dan Orlovsky branding the decision as a perfectly sound one for the future.

“I find the justification to be somewhat logically incoherent… if you think you’re going to be good, which is why you pay Kirk Cousins $100 million guaranteed, you’re doing your team a disservice by not making your team better so that you can compete now… it just doesn’t add up for the team or the player,” Kimes said.

Kimes’ former ESPN colleague, Dianna Russini, who is now with The Athletic, has added to this, posting a video of Kimes offering her opinion and stating that she’s spoken to several coaches and general managers who share the same view.
