Kirk Cousins-Led Atlanta Falcons Rank 9th Amongst NFL Skill Positions Groups Rankings

How far can Kirk Cousins take a talent-loaded Atlanta Falcons roster in 2024?

In case you somehow missed it — Kirk Cousins is the new man under center in the Dirty South after signing a four-year, $180 million deal with the club after six successful seasons with the Minnesota Vikings.

However, a bit of drama ensued with the club as just one month after Cousins’ arrival, Arthur Blank’s front office selected Washington signal caller, Michael Penix Jr. with the eighth overall pick in this past April’s NFL Draft.

Cousins will still be the week one starter, and with a plethora of weapons around him, will any early season hiccups cause a stir in Atlanta with a first-round rookie waiting in the wings?
