6'2", 228. Me being a looooong time Bears fan(1959), I loved the Falcon's pick at 8. I had them drafting Rome Odunza at 8 and I was real curious to see if Da Bears wouild trade down for an extra pick or draft an O tackle, an edge rusher or interior D lineman at 9. I really liked Odunza and Harrison Jr, but I figured no way would the Bears get one of them at 9, so color me a real happy camper Dan.
Eisen says 'when have we ever seen anything remotely similar to this?" Well, we've seen it twice with the Packers. Superstar quarterback offended by the franchise drafting a QB while he is there (Farve is there when they chose Rodgers, Rodgers is there when they chose Love.) The quarterback position is such a wild card, I am not surprised teams take guys early to give them time to evaluate and provide depth in case of injury. You have Heisman trophy winners that are busts and the last person chosen in the draft playing for the 49ers.
Kirk cousins is an old maybe at times an above average quarterback...these sideline talk show critics somehow think they know more than the experts....in this day and age of more mobile QBs, and QB'S getting hurt, you almost need a good backup...(See the jets and Rodgers)
I believe that they’re not quite sure how Kirk will be coming off injury. If he needs a few weeks into the NFL season, they feel Penix could bridge the gap for a relatively cheap plus with all the quarterbacks that seem to have gone down throughout the year, it’s worth having a great number two just in case.
A reach, imo.. Believe ATL envisions Penix as the next franchise qb. That said, the pick was a surprise (just signed Cousins for few years). Was hoping Penix would fall to my Raiders at 13
Difference between Penix and Love is age. Let's say you keep Kirk for 2 years, Penix will be 26 with 0 NFL start then he needs to workout cause you have to sign him to a contract at age 27-28? It's just weird. Plus it's the 8th pick not the 26th pick. With the 8th pick your supposed to get an impact day 1 starter now a clipboard for 2 years.
Nothing wrong with doing it the right way and letting Penix sit a couple years. This year he sits for sure but he can do what Mahomes did to Alex Smith and they can bench cut or trade Kirk cousins. Is what it is. Can’t pass up on someone like Penix Jr for a 35 year old coming off Achilles tear
lets talk about about the NFL DRAFT crowds and TV Ratings VS NBA playoffs , the NBA DREAMS of getting HUGE crowds like that at their draft or the TV ratings the draft gets compared to NBA playoffs games WOW
You experts had the same reaction when the Packers drafted Love. So how did that work out? Now most of you thought it was great. Time will tell and I suspect you will call it great in time based. 😮
LMAO, y'all really gotta stop cutting these interviews short. Why even bother with RUclips if ya ain't gunna put it all there?
Agreed….why do they keep doing this?
What makes it worse is that Penix has not played a down in the NFL and he is already a year and half older than CJ Stroud.
Lots of QBs were 24 when they got drafted or played .. Russell Wilson, Carson Palmer, Philip Rivers, Aaron Rodgers.... Tom Brady 😂
What is going on with the editing it is horrific with the cutoffs every video lately. “Here is some of the interview”
great interview!
The dumbing down of NFL management, a sign of the times.
Dan Patrick Show, I loved this video so much, I had to hit the like button!

Is Rich locked in a room that has no door knob?
yes
There's a little hatch to the crawl space under his chair.
Two of Best
It’s not a head-scratcher why they drafted Penix Jr.
It’s a head-scratcher why they didn’t draft a defensive player instead.
There’s a difference.
Shout out to the BEST TWO SPORTS RADIO VOICES OUT THERE ! Love these two ! Cowturd got nothin on these guys 😂

Do you really think Penix is going to stand on the sidelines for 2 seasons the way qbs get injured?
Kirk cousins is an old maybe at times an above average quarterback...these sideline talk show critics somehow think they know more than the experts....in this day and age of more mobile QBs, and QB'S getting hurt, you almost need a good backup...(See the jets and Rodgers)
How is this a surprise? Kirk is 35 and coming off an injury. Yes he signed a 4 year deal. Kirk isn’t making it pass year 2 in Atlanta
Agree

Two super stars
What if they are planning for Penix to get playing time due to injury and develope him so they can use him for trade value later?
A reach, imo..

Why do NFL Teams have such Large draft staffs
My 4 yr old could have same results with the Mock draft previews from CBS ESPN and NFL websites
How is this a head scratcher?
"Truly unprecedented" - Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love???
This is different Kurt hasn’t even played lol he thought he would be the QB for 4 years. Now there a time on his time in ATL.
“What are the Bills doing?” - Well said. I think that was rhetorical. Clown show.
Rich and Dan, I was right on all six qbs going to the right teams!
We don’t believe you
Dan jones is about to ball out year 6 💀
GO PAC GO
Training your replacement. Expensive tho
6 ft 5 in 270…..put me in coach
Good points Dan wouldn't have paid Cousins....!!!!!! Head scratcher
The way QB's go down and get hurt, why not have a very good backup??
"full interview"
250k to watch the draft live.😂
Commanders didn’t draft Kirk cousins
Same team, just a different 'name' at the time.
I don’t think NFL QB veterans care about this as much as Rich does…Cousins gets paid….again! 😂And laughs all the way to the bank.
And Rich, please stop talking about jj McCarthy.

Yet _another_ cut-off interview, do better
Aliens watched the draft last night and decided humans civilization isnt worth saving after Atlanta picked MP Jr
Eisen is looking old
Itll be so funny when penix is crap and odunze is a perennial pro bowler
Eisen's support of Bush is disgusting.
When did Penix become a top 10 or 15 for that matter? What is Rich talking about. Some had him second round.
he's a bit too pro-israel and too brady fanboy for my taste
Eisen?
Very liberal guy.
Supports WOKE issues
