Do you know the windfall of assets that pick could have gotten them?


Do you know that could be coming down the line?

He wasn't THAT valuable to drastically trade up for and maybe they tried.

But like Favrve being drafted by Atlanta, even Glanville said he'd never start....in a, "helll will freeze over" sort of way....Pennix was the best available.... And you can flip it. He's a commodity that they own the rights to even if he never starts. It's value now or value later.

He was snorting and drinking his way out of the NFL in Atlanta and wouldn't have started for anyone back then.

QBs in the draft are kind of like buying a new car, the moment you drive it off the lot the value dips considerably (until they perform)

If you sit Pennix for even a year, teams aren’t going to be antsy to trade when you randomly decide to get rid of him. That’s going to make them wonder why they are waiving the white flag already. You’ll get at best a mid round pick.
