- Fox Sports’ lead college football analyst Joel Klatt is back after covering the NFL Draft from Detroit and starts the show by discussing the most surprising pick: the Falcons taking Michael Penix Jr with the 8th pick. He breaks down why Atlanta’s decision-making this offseason has put both Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix Jr in a bad spot. Klatt also discusses the Giants’ decision to pass on J.J. McCarthy and the Vikings ultimately landing the Michigan QB. The Bears landed two elite talents in the Top 10 in Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze and look poised for a potential playoff run next season. The Broncos have received criticism for where they drafted Bo Nix but Klatt explains why they made the right choice. Finally, Joel discusses why the Cowboys could regret not drafting a Running Back and why Washington had a great draft selecting Illinois DT Jer’Zhan Newton and Michigan DB Mike Sainristil along with the 2nd overall pick in the Draft, LSU QB Jayden Daniels.

Michael Penix to the Falcons!?! J.J. McCarthy get his wish & look out for Caleb Williams & the Bears
• Michael Penix to the F... - Sport
"I never knew these pringles were so good" 😂
That contact high might of had Charles on astronaut mode 😂
Who among us hasn’t *housed* a can of Pringles in his life? 😉
Someone on set had the munchies!
I never new your mom was so good 😂
I just said the same thing yesterday when I got my first dose of the honey mustard pringles
The spring break analogy was wild😂😂
What a ride of a story.
I miss being young
“What are we doing” whilst holding your temples, had me in stitches…😂😂😂
“Don’t think of the color red” was hilarious 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 yoo what! Y'all were catching that 2nd hand smoke 😈🤣. Go blue! I love that you told us that! You have THE best content Joel!
Ay go bucks mf😉
GoBlue! 〽️ natty champs baby.
It is legal now
Joel is the realest announcer of all time
That just puts him more down to earth. He is just a guy like everyone else with genuine reactions.
Good work Joel, you're a tireless worker! From NFL Draft coverage on Thurs/Fri, to UFL broadcasts on Sat/Sun, to a podcast episode on Monday, well done sir!
I love football! I also love lamp!! -Joel
It was cool to see Nick Saban of all people say that Mikey Sainristil was pound for pound the best defensive player in the draft. Being a 5'10" 180 lb nickel is why he was a second round pick obviously but he didn't even start playing defense until 2 years ago.
I really believe he is going to be a great NFL player... I think he can be an All-Pro very early in his career. The Saban love was terrific. -Joel
@@JoelKlattShow wow that’s awesome of you to reply and interact with your viewers, thanks Joel!
It’s wild that such a small guy can have such a huge impact. When they do his autopsy in 65 years a doc is going to discover his heart is double normal size.
Imagine how good he can be once he REALLY knows the position.
That smoke story was awesome. 🌬
Joel, it was an absolute joy watching the broadcast with you, DJ and Rich. Truly a trio of greatness.
You’re my favorite football commentator; I’ve learned the most about the game from you. Thanks and much respect!
I second that sentiment!
The funniest photo of the draft was the falcons gm immediately defending his penix pick with the owner lol.
How does anybody know that's what they were discussing.
@@LunchBox68 They don't. No way Blank hadn't already okayed this decision.
@@LunchBox68master propagandists
@@codyb.3015 exactly, there was buzz that atlanta was looking at penix
Contact high at the draft is genuinely hilarious 😭
Welcome to Detroit..lol
Especially since players get tested for it
@@bleak83 ehh nfl knows its pointless so they only do it once at the start of training camp. Nba all together stopped testing for it.
14:42 I’m a Giants fan and also Michigan fan. I’m glad that JJ went to Minnesota. The Giants and the Vikings do not have the same situation or players obviously. I don’t think JJ would’ve succeeded in New York and still have a better chance Minnesota.
As the Giants had a solid B draft.
This is the way to start a week Joel😂🤣
Thanks for making my morning 😂💀
Ty Joel for representing College football & the NFL a true Gentleman & top tier scout and your love & passion to the game is undeniable... Not comparing you to the Legend but you remind me of the late great John Madden when it comes to Football 101....
I love this show. Joel knows his stuff too well!
Joel always on point. Great insight.
Always love hearing your take on the topics you bring. Usual great analysis with the QB’s in this draft.
thank you for not sugar coating the falcons pick. Absolute horrid decision by the front office. Submarining the locker room is a great point especially because Penix is play now type of prospect I mean the dude is 24. I would understand it more if they went after a prospect like JJ McCarthy since he is so young and needs more time to develop. You gotta feel bad for kirk he will have a ton of pressure on him in practice and in games. No one should or can make it make sense. Sure if penix starts three years from now and they win a super bowl that's great, but that means they're kind of punting on this season when they could have bought all in on the defensive side of the ball and chased a ring this year. Maybe they still can if Bralen Trice ends up with 15 sacks but I highly doubt it.
If Kirk can’t take the pressure of competing against a rookie, you said needs more time to develop, then he should not be a starter! Atlanta needed a starting quarterback during free agency. They paid what the market required at the time. If a mistake was made it was not evaluating the draft possibilities enough. I wonder what the discussion would be if they pass on Cousins and draft McCarthy. There are always Monday morning quarterbacks.
JJ is just as ready to play right now as penix what are you even saying? He ran a pro style offense at Michigan
@@johnnycash8567 I agree JJ can play right now but I believe he would be better if he had a year or two to sit since he is so young. Penix imo is ready right now to play he has a ton of experience and it doesn't make sense to draft an older qb to sit him for awhile
@@johnnycash8567Penix is a whole 3 years older than JJ. Not really about the offense they ran
I love that Charles Davis was probably second hand high 😂
The Falcons missed a huge part of the "Green Bay model," which is that the QB who's being succeeded has already established themselves in Green Bay for 10-15 years. Not a guy who hasn't even participated in a single practice for your team like Kirk Cousins with the Falcons. And a succession plan with a developmental guy taken in the 20s, not a guy who's ready to go, taken at #8 overall.
the desk getting contact high is awesome 😂
This was a deep draft in 5 years looking back we are going to see this being a top draft class. So many good WRs in this draft.
You nailed this Joel.
Love your show, your take, and your analytics
JOEL!!! i hope you know that you are by far the best in the business.
I’m sure Raheem and Terry wouldn’t mind if Arthur Blank hired a back up head coach and general manager just to…ya know… plan for the future 😂
That GM was drafting for the future, not just this season. Speaks volumes about his confidence in job security.
@@brianrobinson116 he won’t even be the GM once Penix is the starter if they miss the playoffs the next couple years. He better hope Kirk is for real.
@@Biz613 I repeat- He is not DRAFTING like he thinks he will be gone next year. Which is, if you think about it, smart in the long run.
The way you explained how we got 3 portal qb’s and three regular 3 and out qb’s to get 6 in the first round was very well said Joe
I watched every Oregon down. My biggest concern was that Oregon receivers were WIDE OPEN all year. The short passes thing doesn't matter as much because they can still be 40 yard passes just at a different angle. But the fact everyone was wide open doesn't translate to the NFL.
Having Troy Franklin joining Bo Nix makes me feel a little better.
JJ McCarthy is going to be a stud!
Eh. Average at best.
Apparently you haven’t paid any attention to JJ. He has lost like 3 games in his career. He just wins. Average, hardly. He is the hardest working, ultimate professional you will ever find…. He also has the maturity to handle anything that comes his way.
He was never forced to carry a team that doesn't mean he can't do it by if he hasn't done it by now that means he might not be able to.
@@pappadudat628 yea im with you I just don’t see a stud QB when I watch JJ McCarthy maybe a high end “game manager” but that’s about it
@@Mgoblue1023 He lost one game as a starter, and it was a playoff game. Do you know what words envious, butthurt armchair gurus use of a guy who wins games against their favorite team(s)? "Game Manager."
Go Blue!!!
Great point on Nix protecting himself by being intelligent and decisive with his decisions and throws.
As a Bronco fan, I used to marvel at Manning's ability to protect himself that way. He was an absolute statue, a literal concrete column back there in those last years. And no, I am not saying Nix is as good as Manning. Just comparing self-protection similarly.
Bo Nix and Franklin bout to go off
Hopefully for Broncos fans sakes.
Bo Nix is absolute trash. Franklin is a good player though.
@@raniebranson8051 you're dumb
Bo Nix will be out of the League in 2 years
@@litedawg you're dumb
The only problem with the falcons is the 100 million dollar contract, that’s so stupid if they were just going to draft a QB. If Cousins goes 1-3 the fans are going to want to see Penix, so basically that 100 million will go down the drain unless Kirk plays well.
I've seen plenty of videos of Falcons fans just losing their minds over the Penix pick. I think a lot of Falcons fans have lingering issues over that SB loss to the Patriots 🤣🤣🤣
Glad to see Detroit put on a great show for the Draft 👍👏 Go Blue!
With so many QBs getting hurt, including Kirk Cousins last year, who only played in 8 games, it seems that having 2 starting QBs is almost a necessity. Therefore, I give Atlanta extra credit for solidifying the most important position on the field. Most teams have a tremendous drop-off when they have to play their backup. Kirk will be a solid mentor for Michael Penix Jr.
I'm a lifelong Falcons fan who has come to peace with the Michael Penix selection. When the selection was announced on Thursday night I HATED it. I wanted Atlanta to trade back and select a pass rusher. I'm still not completely sold on the Penix selection but I at least understand it, now.
Having to endure Marcus Mariotta and Desmond Ridder the last two seasons made it abundantly clear how important it is to have a top-tier quarterback if you want to be a SB contender. The Falcons have a strong enough roster that they shouldn't be picking in the top-10 for a while. I'd rather be early on selecting our next (potential) franchise quarterback than in a position where Kirk Cousins is washed up and we're picking 19th in a bad quarterback draft.
If Cousins plays awesome, Atlanta has a really good backup. If Kirk disappoints, they have a guy on the bench that could be their next QB for a decade. Had Atlanta taken a pass rusher with their first round pick they win, what, one extra game?
Again, I'm not completely sold on my own argument ☝️but I'm at least okay with it.
I'm also a Falcons fan and still hate the pick but, at this point, what are you going to do? What's done is done and you have to hope that Fontenot looks like a fricking genius in a few years.
That they didn't have Penix or any other QB come in was news to me and honestly not something I had even considered. Speaks volumes.
Falcons have no Defense. Your offense idk how good it can be because i haven't seen it be good. its all hope and a dream. If the offense is good and can score 30pts a game thats great but it wont matter when your defense gives up 40pts a game
@@pauliej345 As it stands, it's going to be tough for Atlanta's defense to keep the opposing teams to under 25-28 points per game. It certainly puts a lot of pressure on the offense to put up 28+, every week.
when he balls out in max two years all you falcons gonna be screaming his name 🤣
It’s ok to come to peace with it, but it was a moronic pick. Don’t let anyone convince you it wasn’t. You’re going have a 4x injured 28
Year old who’s never started in the NFL who is no longer on his rookie contract.
Lamar Jackson sat his rookie year, Aaron Rodgers, Steve Young, Tom Brady, etc. Holding the clipboard your rookie year is the best thing for a young QB.
So if you're expecting Penix to sit for 1-2 years, why give Cousins bags of money? It doesn't make sense.
Watching the intelligent joel klatt proves winning isn't always about talent. It's about what players you have to match up against different teams
Wish they had Davis and them Pringles on camera
Great Insight as always ! Greetings from Germany

“His teammates generally really like him” -Joel Klatt, unfortunately will not be selected to write his LOR when caleb Williams goes professionals in something other than sports
The Falcons are going to lose a draft pick(s) for tampering with Cousins during the pre-free agency period as well. 😵💫
Maybe THAT'S why they drafted Penix now - b/c no matter what happens, they'll probably lose their first round pick next year, at leas.t
As a Bucs fan the Falcons are the gift 🎁 that keeps on giving 😅. Thank you Atlanta 😊
I remember Joel so much here in Denver
Dude got the munchies from a contact high🤣
As a Seahawks fan picking up Byron Murphy II I was super hyped and I’m still today. 💯💯💯🔥🔥
thoughts on the bucs draft? thought they did a good job addressing needs, could of a used corner but I was a fan of all their picks
"His teammates, generally really like him..."
Ringing endorsement for Caleb by Joel
That was funny they were catching contact out there
Having Benson as the "fringe 4th" is wild. Hes the most NFL ready back in the draft
The biggest thing with the pundits getting upset about Atlanta's pick is that they did not do their homework. The entire coaching staff AND GM flew to SEA for a private workout a month ago. You guys just are lazy and should have connected the dots.
JJ is in the perfect situation. Sadly, he’ll be playing against my Lions for a long time 😕
Lions are still going to run that division for a few years. -Joel
Not if my packers have anything to say about it Joel
@@JoelKlattShow - I hope so, I’ve just been trained over the years to expect the worst 😂
With JJ and Caleb Williams in the division I’m getting a little antsy.
Love JJ and love the Lions. NFC North will be very tough within a couple of years. Green bay and Chicago drafted well. Vikings should be solid too
I was trying so hard not to think of the color red LMAO
I was surprised he didn't mention Daniels going to the Commanders, after all the speculation. He was right (as usual) the Commanders had a great draft! The NFC east is going to be wild for the next decade! HTTC
The falcons ineptitude never ceases to amaze me
Caring is the number one thing that will cause success in any part of your life. That’s an excellent answer by Caleb. People don’t care enough. Not a Caleb fan but that answer is the right answer.
Y’all was smelling that pressure 😂😂😂
As a Cowboys fan we deserved a D-F grade. It was like we weren’t in control of anything that we were doing. We made one or two decent picks but it was torture sitting through each round wondering if we were going to get a RB in which we didn’t.
None of your points make sense. There's never a wrong time draft a franchise QB. He fell to them, yes they signed Kirk and even with that contract what are they missing that they can't build around him? They have elite RB/TEs and solid WRs with a defense that isn't terrible. Kirk puts them in playoff contention now, owner is happy, Pennix puts them in playoff contention for the next 10+years... You can never have too many skill players and yes that translates to QB. It's worked for GB for 30 years.. as a fan, if you were content with 36yr old Kirk with one achilles you should be elated for a 24yr old rookie for him to learn behind.
Great comments regarding Dallas. Their drafting ability is exceeded only by their Egos.
Im gonna have to go to a draft and start a session 🔥🌴
absolutely correct about the Falcons and Cousins
Penix to Atlanta was brilliant. The Saints were trying to move up to take Penix after just signing Carr, and they couldn't get him, so they settled for Rattler. Didn't the Saints pay Carr a ton of money? Who would you rather have Penix or Rattler? EXACTLY.
The Joel Klatt Show cured my opioid addiction.
As a Bucs fan, I lol at Atlanta. I think I truly get why they did. I can rationalize it in my mind. But it doesn't mean it's not silly.
Im an Oregon fan so no love for Penix. But no denying his talent. He should be a day 1 starter. Or at worst, come in halfway through, possibly.
And Zeke is back in Dallas.
Hate to be “that guy” but I doubt any of them actually got a 2nd hand high from the draft. Less than 1% of the smoke exhaled still has THC in it and being outside makes it almost impossible. Maybe CD hit up a dispo in Detriot before the draft started tho 😂😂😂
Ngl, Corum to the Rams got me so freaking giddy. McVay is gonna have a blast with that guy!
A blind cat could’ve predicted Bo Nix to the Broncos. It just made so much sense. I agree on the value thing too. He was there guy. And he definitely wouldn’t have made it to round 2.
They didn’t have a round 2 pick. So had to take him there
Housing! Lol haven’t heard that in a minute 😂
The trust they have in new DC Jimmy Lake speaks volumes. Coach Lakes’ new scheme alone will make the defense better in ATL. They are counting on it. You now have a quality back up QB to replace Cousins with if he’s injured or starts out 0-3. Also, you can now implement read option packages and rollouts, boots and option plays to keep defenses guessing.
If Kyle Pitts, Bijan Robinson and Drake London simultaneously get better this season, ATL will be in the NFC championship game.
Dallas skipping MarShawn in the 3rd was a head scratcher. Them Jones boys have been munchin’ a bunch of Pringles too.
Love my Dirty Birds, really like Penix as a prospect, but “What are we doing!?!?”
I love your show joel you are geat. As far as McCarthy and the winning lets not forget they had 13 NFL draft picks on that team so of course they were good..im just not sold on JJ being great just yet
As a Falcons fan, I stopped watching the games during the second season of the Arthur Smith era. Looks like that will continue for the up coming season as well
Seahawks paid Matt Flynn then promptly sat him on the bench for rookie Russell Wilson and the rest was history. Drafting Penix after signing Kirk will not be such a terrible move if Penix pans out.
2:39 … definitely Dr. Disrespect , we found him guys 😂
Penix getting picked by the falcons might be the strangest pick of all time. I don’t think any other pick will ever beat this one lol
Did Balfour make those Rose Bowl rings? They made our class rings like none other!
Why would you tell Kirk cousins anything earlier than they did, so his agent can leak it to the media because they are upset? That's a dumb risk , better to keep it a secret and just draft him
Drafting Penix was the a very good move by Atlanta.
Does it fit with signing Cousins? No,
But it was still a good move.
If Atlanta had a chance to win a Super Bowl, it's a bad move but they were not strong contenders, so good move.
If Kirk Cousins has to look over his shoulder, not to worry. Penix will pass it right to him with great leverage. Go Dawgs!
There was no arrests night one. Lots of green blazed!! 🤤
16 receivers ahead of Troy Franklin? That's insane... That snub is going to come back and bite a lot of teams...
Troy Franklin was the steal of the draft
As a fan who has followed the Vikings from their SB loss to the Chiefs, I'm here to tell you that JJ McCarthy is the 2024 draft's version of Todd Blackledge. Maybe he'll go into sportscasting.
I honestly don’t think anyone really wanted JJ besides the Vikings. Everyone was trying to trade up for Maye, not McCarthy at #3. And then other teams wanted Penix/Broncos wanted Nix. And Sean Payton and others already came out saying they wanted to Vikings to think they wanted JJ. And it worked.
But in reality, dude shouldn’t even have went in the first round. He’s the QB6 in the class, and closer to Spencer Rattler than the top 5.
I have the munchies all of a sudden lol
There was no Lamar Jackson sweepstakes Joel.
And he got another mvp lmao
Yeah that whole Lamar thing got overblown. Baltimore was never trading him for 2 1sts. It was more of an let someone else offer a contract so we can match it
@@stubbbbbs He's gonna have more MVPs than playoff wins!
When is Lamar going to become a WR? Jayden Daniels too? This guy always makes good predictions.
Could it be, Atlanta didn’t plan to draft a quarterback. However, when he was available they could not pass up the opportunity. That said they are like a kid at a fair that spends all his money on the first ride he sees, and cannot ride any other ride.
Perhaps that's the best ride 😂
Good show
Atlanta was 7-10 last year, probably could have made the playoffs with better QB play. Kirk is there to win right now and provide guidance for penix. Atlanta already has the skilled positions filled they’re good!
Giving Atlanta the benefit of the doubt, there is enough demand for QB that someone will trade for Kirk Cousins.
Rich Eisen seemed to be in a pissy mood during the first round.
Why
I like bo nix. He was a dude last year. He does remind me of drew brees. He went to the exact right place
That’s a great analogy lol
Hey, Michigan smells ‘green’ most of the time nowadays, lmao.
Right, the extra "green" M grads make over all Power 5 coll!
As a die hard Bears fan it's nice not beging the laughing stock of the NFL BEAR DOWN BABY.KING POLES.
Caleb's issues last season were over half to do with the Grinch's USC defense, then the O-Line.
That analogy about getting engaged and going on spring break is hilarious😂. Everyone else is thinking the same thing. Falcons had a questionable draft. They should have went Quinyon or someone else. My Lions had an awesome draft and we got some dawgs in the secondary.
Kirk Cousins welcome to the NFL (NOT FOR LONG) competition makes you better, TB12 had Jimmy G to motivate him and look at the results. New England pick Drake Maye nice then pick Joe Melton 3rd the QB room in New England is going to be competitive.
