Rather than using the #8 pick to upgrade the roster for a Super Bowl run, the Falcons stunned by selecting Micheal Penix Jr. The signs are two-fold. The Falcons felt the opportunity to draft a QB to succeed (newly signed) Kirk Cousins came early with a rich QB class an top-10 draft slot. Also, the opportunity cost to build for the future didn’t hurt the ability to currently building for a Super Bowl by deciding not to draft a top-10…
The Bills pulled a sneaker over on Wednesday when Stefon Diggs was shipped to the Houston Texans and startled a basketball afternoon.

It seems like a huge gamble, but the math looks like $90 million guaranteed the next and malleable at $10 million guaranteed in 2026 and nothing guaranteed in 2027. He’s an…
