Penix isn’t a project. He played 6 years of college ball with a ton of reps. He is either ready right now as the elite talent you think he is to take him at 8, or he never will be.
This. He's not a high-upside project you draft at #8 to sit and learn behind Cousins for two years. He is what he is already.

I could maybe support Drake Maye at #8 if he happened to fall that far. A project with #1 overall talent who needs a couple years learning from a veteran. But not Penix.

The frustrating part as a fan is the Falcons got insanely lucky. There was such a QB frenzy that our #8 pick was essentially the equivalent of a #1 pick for a defense needy team. They could have locked down their pass rush the next decade with a guy like Dallas Turner.
