The Atlanta Falcons made some heads turn when they drafted Michael Penix Jr. with the 8th overall pick. They had just signed Kirk Cousins to a four-year, $180 million deal with $100 million guaranteed, but Terry Fontenot said he was the best on the board and sometimes you have to take that chance. This will be an interesting start to the season for the Vikings as they open up with OTA’s and Training Camp.
Here is how Terry Fontenot and Raheem Morris did with their selections for the New York Giants 2024 NFL Draft:
