2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

[NortheasternPJ]

They taking Penix and trading him?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Atlanta, without defense since 1864

 

[wibi]

I cant start to hope that somehow JJ falls to Seattle at 16, can I?

 

[mauf]

There’s a trade coming, right?

 

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

Wow. Raheem going two QBs?

 

[Reverend]

Bill was extremely critical of all three QB's, pointing out specific weaknesses in each of them, while acknowledging their strengths and potential as well. I don't get people who are saying he shit on the # 3 pick, seems to me he was pretty fair in his assessment from everything else I know about Maye.

I think it’s because he primed the pump before the draft started by tearing apart Maye’s footwork. Which makes sense because maybe the biggest divide on Maye is whether that’s fixable / was it the coaches’ fault, etc.

 

[Ed Hillel]

BB got like 2 bad highlights for every good highlight for his segments lol

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Fuck Atlanta for not hiring BB

 

[OnWisc]

I immediately like JC Latham.

 

[tims4wins]

This is awesome for pick 34

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Maybe Falcons are picking Penix for someone else?

 

[singaporesoxfan]

Falcons going to do the Packers thing and sit the new QB behind the veteran for a few years?

 

[Dollar]

Can't wait to see BB's reaction to the Falcons pick.

 

[OnWisc]

Are they picking him for the Raiders?

 

[Morgan's Magic Snowplow]

They have to be trading him I think.

They gave Cousins 100m guaranteed and signed him for four years.

 

[Marbleheader]

What a terrible pick unless it's a trade

 

[Salem's Lot]

Atlanta, without defense since 1864

That’s a hot take

 

[Darnell's Son]

Best name in the NFL.

 

[nolasoxfan]

WuT? Why...? Is there a trade involved?

 

[rodderick]

Falcons going to do the Packers thing and sit the new QB behind the veteran for a few years?

Penix will be 34 when he takes a snap, then.

 

[luckiestman]

Draft has finally begun - first off the beaten path pick.

Sorry, I thought you meant Latham

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bill is gonna have fun with this one.

 

[JOBU]

So reminds me of his old man.

Well he did kill a guy… allegedly.

 

[OnWisc]

That’s a hot take

This was good.

 

[luckiestman]

Chicago will take Rome, right. Son of a gun

 

[Beomoose]

Atlanta, without defense since 1864

I hope I'm allowed to like this because I do

 

[cornwalls@6]

Wow. I like Penix a lot, but that’s a surprise.

 

[jcd0805]

I cant start to hope that somehow JJ falls to Seattle at 16, can I?

Why would you want that?

 

[Ed Hillel]

They have to be trading him I think.

They gave Cousins 100m guaranteed and signed him for four years.

Yeah, but how does this make sense? Why would anyone want them taking Penix at 8?

 

[Dollar]

This is awesome for pick 34

Fingers crossed for Nix to the Broncos.

 

[Salem's Lot]

If I was that Labrador Retriever in front of JJ McCarthy right now, I would move to the other side of the room right about now.

 

[ElcaballitoMVP]

What in the world is Atlanta doing

 

[Ale Xander]

Arthur Blank ladies and germs

 

[luckiestman]

Atlanta not hiring BB is a catastrophe for the capital of the South

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Chicago will take Rome, right. Son of a gun

They must be running to the podium.

 

[rodderick]

This is insane by Atlanta, man. But I guess they can move on from Kirk in two years without much issue.

 

[ngruz25]

Penix looked like he had no clue how to react.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Maybe Falcons are picking Penix for someone else?

Like opposing DCs?

 

[Ale Xander]

If I was that Labrador Retriever in front of JJ McCarthy right now, I would move to the other side of the room right about now.

Isn’t the lab in front of the gf?

 

[Seels]

lol awful Falcons

 

[ifmanis5]

Truly bizarre pick. Bears go to Rome.

 

[Average Game James]

Damn. Great night for the Bears. Rome at 9 was probably best case scenario for them.

 

[bsartist618]

I thought the point of McAfee's show was for everyone to get wasted

I'm not sure there's enough alcohol in my house to salvage this.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bill wanted the trade back

 

[Tim Salmon]

I love, love, love Belichick. But I never want to hear him say "this seems a little high for him" with a straight face after Cole Strange.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

If I was that Labrador Retriever in front of JJ McCarthy right now, I would move to the other side of the room right about now.

Maybe Brady Quinn's old girlfriend is available.

[Ale Xander]

sort of cross posting but maybe the Falcons picked Penix so early because he was going to a 3-D movie very soon.

 

[jcd0805]

BB not rubbing it in the falcons face was very high road of him
