With their young offensive core of Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Kyle Pitts, they needed a talented quarterback to help them shine. Atlanta turned to veteran Kirk Cousins. Despite this $180 million addition, the team also selected the colossus Michael Penix with the ninth overall pick in the draft to ensure his succession. The Falcons have the advantage of playing in a very winnable division. With their defensive attributes and the arrival of a monster like Matthew Judon, this team will have to finish at the top.
