Exactly, and even if Penix isn't ready to start and we roll with AOC, his only real problem is that he's a statue. Give him a clean pocket and I think he'll be really good.
Yeah AOC is a pocket passer, you gotta give him pocket time else you're asking a duck to climb a tree. Penixs ability to improvise and extend plays with his legs are great, but he also needs to be kept upright to do that well.

Ducks can't climb trees?

Ever seen a duck in a tree?

Yes, but I don't think it climbed there.

I'm definitely stealing that.

You can also have "expecting a fish to ride a bike" if you like ;) I got loads of stupid metaphors.

No, Aidan trying to evade pressure is much more of a duck trying to climb a tree.

🤣🤣 well that mental image makes me hope he's the starter all season so I get to watch that fiasco every week

Thankfully, Joe Alt will be there to save the day, so no fiascos for you.

If he falls to you guys for real... Ooooffff that would be awesome. And even if he doesn't, if the juice isn't worth the squeeze and the asking price too high to come up to the top ends of the draft for a QB... Taking fuaga at 13 isn't the worst thing that can happen, you can always get a guy with high upside like rattler in the 2nd maybe 3rd. Might even get penix or nix in the 2nd but I don't see them falling out the 1st. The QB tax is real.

My 1st draft was fuaga and rattler
It's interesting how reliably Penix falls to 44 in the various mocks, though. I can't help but think the teams who really need to hit on a franchise guy are scared of his injury risk on top of the usual bust potential.
I do think it would be surprising if someone doesn't trade into the end of the 1st round to pick him though. If he works out, that 5th year option will be so valuable.
Is that a British thing?

Not exactly... It's more just a pub thing...
