So today's episode, we are joined, rejoined, I guess you could say, by Derek Classen of Bleacher Report to talk more about Michael Pinnock's when we had Derek PERSON on before the draft. I think it was like a week before the draft. We didn't really get in that deep intoMichael Pinnock PERSON's or, you know, some of the other quarterbacks. And so now we'll be able to take a deeper dive into Michael Pinnock's his fit in Atlanta, his strengths, his weakness, his development plan, all that and more. So without further ado, let's jump into that conversation with Derek Classen PERSON, a bleacher report right now.

Speaker 3190.94s - 221.96s

All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are back with another illustrious guest. He is Derek Classen PERSON, making his triumphant return to the podcast. We had him on before the draft to preview some of the quarterbacks that the Falcons ORG may take on day two or day three of the draft. And, of course,backs that the Falcons ORG may take on day two or day three of the draft. And of course, the Falcons ORG decided, no, we're not going to do that.Let's get our guy, day one, top 10 pick, Michael Pinnock's PERSON. Derek, what was your reaction when you saw the Falcons taking Michael Pinnock's PERSON at A? I got to ask the question to everybody that comes on the podcast for like the next three months.

Speaker 2222.6s - 288.76s

I mean, I'll be honest. It was probably the most, like, jarring quarterback pick I've seen since. Like I don't even know because the other ones that come to mind are like, okay, Kenny Pickett was kind of crazy, but it was like, okay, Kenny Pickett is obviously going to start at quarterback for them, right? And that was also in the 20s.E.J. Manuel for the bills like a decade ago. But okay, he was obviously going to start for them. Picking Pennix at eight when you just paid Kirk Cousins a billion dollars six weeks ago. It was baffling to me. And like you said, I came on this show, you know, a few weeks before the draft and he was like, you know, maybe they were looking at Michael Pratt. Maybe Spencer Rattler PERSON in the third round or something. And then to go up at eight, not even trading back or anything to get him.I mean, just the whole process of everything just, it completely blew my mind. And it was funny, too, I was talking to a friend who doesn't really do football work, but obviously, you know, watches football and stuff. And seven picks in, it was like, man, this, this draft is chalk. And he was like, when is it going to get fun? And I was like, maybe when a defender comes off the board.And 30 seconds later, the Balkans pick Michael Pennix. And Inings PERSON and I was like okay never mind this is where it gets crazy.

Speaker 3289.34s - 293.74s

Yeah, yeah, definitely. Yeah, I remember commenting. Yeah, you know, this is a chalk draft.

Speaker 2293.74s - 298.44s

We haven't gotten all the crazy tradeups quarterbacks and go one, two, three, four like some people

Speaker 3298.44s - 321.44s

were predicting and then of course the Falcons ORG decided we're going to throw a wrench in that. But when we talked last, you talked a little bit about how you like Spencer Rattler as a fit in this Falcon ORG's offense. And you didn't necessarily love Michael Pinnock's PERSON fit. And, you know, now you have the floor to elaborate on why you didn't necessarily love Pinnock's fit in this sort of Rams-McVey style ORG offense that we expect to see under

Speaker 2321.44s - 433.08s

Zach Robinson PERSON. Yeah, I mean, so there is an entire possibility that Robinson could, should change the offense to fit more of what Pennix PERSON does. But to me, the offense, like when you look at what Matthew Stafford PERSON does, Matthew Stafford gets a lot of like five-step gun drop back. We're going to throw over the middle a lot. We're going to throw these like deep over routes, dig routes, seam routes.That's kind of the basis of the offense. And then they let him operate a lot in like empty and like throw quick game as he has to. That to me is just not at all really where Michael Pennix wins. Michael Pennix wins more like throwing like slot fades, go balls. He can throw post routes like off of like play action and stuff like that. He is more of an outside the numbers type of quarterback where this offense typically operates by being able to attack the middle of the field very well.And there were a couple of throws on film where Michael Pennick PERSON should throw the middle of the field. And like he very obviously has the velocity to throw dig routes and stuff like that. But you just didn't really see that much, you didn't see that much volume of throws over the middle of the field. And you also just didn't see very much comfort, very much anticipation, very much touch over the middle of the field compared to some of the other quarterbacks in this class. And really compared to other quarterbacks that have operated in this offense.Like even Jared Goff for some of his limitations, very good middle of the field thrower. And then obviously Matthew Stafford PERSON, very, very good middle of the field throwers. So Michael Pennix, to me more like when I envision what Michael Pennix would be good at, it's something more like the 2015 like Cardinals ORG offense where they're throwing a lot of like those 12 yard outs, throwing a lot of go balls. Every now and then you're going to get posted on the field.Like it's more of a vertical, but outside the numbers passing offense, which to me is just not really at all what Zach Robinson PERSON, assuming he does some of the McVeigh PERSON stuff, it just doesn't seem like that's really what the offense is going to be. So to me, just kind of a bizarre fit.

Speaker 3433.7s - 450.16s

Now, you mentioned that 2015 Cardinals team held by Carson Palmer and Bruce Ariens PERSON. I know in your scouter report for Bleacher Report, you compared Pinnock PERSON's to a discount Carson Palmer PERSON. Is that the gist of where that comparison comes from? Yeah, pretty much.

Speaker 2450.22s - 518.88s

Because it's just like I feel like a lot of the throws that Pennix is good at are a lot of like what the basis of like that three, four year stretch of Palmer in Arizona ORG was. Where like I said, it's a lot of throwing outside the numbers. It's a lot of throwing vertically. Palmer PERSON, you know, I say discount because I think Palmer was much better in the quick game and I think his timing was a lot of throwing outside the numbers. It's a lot of throwing vertically. Palmer, you know, I say discount because I think Palmer PERSON was much better in the quick game and I think his timing was a little bit better. But in terms of some of the more aggressive, like I said, outside the number throws, Pennix really matches up pretty well with Palmer PERSON in that regard.And then Palmer PERSON, dude, that dude could put some miles per hour on the ball. And if there's anything I know for a fact that Michael Pennix can do, it's put a lot of velocity on the ball. And so, yeah, that's kind of where that comparison comes in. And then also, you know, by that point in his career, Palmer PERSON wasn't the most mobile guy. He didn't always have the most flexible of arm slots. And I think you see that in Michael Pennix as well where like, obviously he ran well at his pro day. But on film, you just don't see a lot of mobility, especially outside the pocket.And then I think his arm slot flexibility is like not really up there with the Mahomes, the Allen's, the Lamar PERSON's, that sort of thing. So that to me is more where I see Palmer PERSON where he's like kind of just like a stock standard pocket passer.

Speaker 3520.18s - 585.54s

Yeah. And it's interesting you bring up that arm slot thing because I know one of the comments that sort of emerged after the, you know, the Falcon's apparent interest in Michael Piddick's PERSON. And one of the things I can't remember where I saw it quoted, but when they sort of did that private workout for him early in April, there was a comment from some of the people that were on hand that he had some of the, I don't remember the exact words, but they were maybe comparing him a lot to Matthew Stafford PERSON in terms of that arm elasticity that you're sort of talking about. I don't quite see that on film with Pinnock PERSON's. I see some of it. I think you're sort of talking about it, but in terms of like being, I think the comment was like,the quote was like, this is the most we've seen close to Matt Stafford in a while or something. And I'm just like, did you guys not scout Caleb Williams at all? Because like that's the same, you know, like, if you want to say Pinnix PERSON is number two on that list, okay, sure, whatever. But like the idea of like, this is the closest to Matt Stafford. It was a little bizarre. So I'm just curious, what is your reaction to hearing that?

Speaker 2585.98s - 620.78s

No, I remember seeing that report or whatever as well, and I thought it was crazy. Like, like, obviously Pennix PERSON can throw the hell out of the ball. And like, there are flashes where you see some of that elasticity. But it's more like within the pocket. You don't really see him like doing some of the jumping, like moving around weird angles type stuff that some of the best guys can do. That even Stafford PERSON can do, I think, at his very best.But to say, like, you haven't seen a thrower like this since Matthew Stafford in a class that has Caleb Williams and Drake May PERSON, I just don't get it. It seems crazy. It seems a little hyperbole.

Speaker 3621.22s - 775.2s

Yeah, I'm going to assume that the Falcons ORG were not counting those guys. It's just like of the other quarterbacks in the draft. So that was a little bizarre to me when I saw that quote. I was like, okay, that's interesting. That doesn't necessarily give me a ton of confidence of the Falcons ORG. QB evaluating skills are, you know, top notch.But we'll just sort of assume that we're taking that quote out of context. So there's still more to come with Derek Klasson talking about the strengths and weaknesses of Michael Pinnock's PERSON game. And the chances of those things changing, developing, you know, the probability of him sitting on the bench for the next couple of years. So we'll get into all of that guys as we continue today's a lockdown five.

Fandul is America's number one sportsbook. For me, watching the film with Michael Pinnock's PERSON, one of my biggest concerns is maybe the footwork and mechanics issues that I feel like a lot of what he's doing from a mechanic standpoint is he's not really generating power with his legs and its platform is not always stable.That front leg is always kind of moving rather than stepping in the throws. I'm just curious. What are your thoughts on that? My hope for Pinnix is now that he's going to probably have two years to sit the bench, that there'll be a better chance of the Falcons ORG to maybe rework that than you traditionally would have if a quarterback was going to immediately sort of be pushed onto the field right away,and he just kind of revert back to the old muscle memory. So I'm just curious, what are your thoughts on Pennix's mechanics? And do you feel like because of the sort of unique circumstances here in Atlanta where he may sit for two plus years, they have a better chance than normal to maybe address some of those issues? Yes.

Speaker 2775.32s - 911.88s

So I think with quarterback mechanics, you kind of have to break it up between upper body and lower body. Lower body to me is a lot more fixable, which is basically just footwork like that. Even look at a lot of the best quarterbacks in the league now, like Patrick Mahomes PERSON, his footwork problems coming out of Texas Tech ORG were overstated, but they were there. And his footwork is a lot cleaner now. Josh Allen's PERSON footwork is some of the worst I've ever seen from a quarterback prospect.And his footwork is completely fine now. Lamar Jackson PERSON used to have a much narrower base than he does now. Like these are like footwork is very much something you can fix. And I think with Michael Panics, like you mentioned, sometimes he's not like stepping into throws and he's very much willing to to keep his feedback a little bit, which I think can be an issue. And is why I think he struggles with touch sometimes.That to me, I wonder if, you know, just because he's he's torn his ACL twice, I wonder if, you know, just because he's, he's torn his ACL twice. I wonder if he's just a little bit hesitant to play a little bit more forward. And I wonder if that's the issue. But I do think, like you said, with him sitting probably at least two years DATE on the bench, I think there is a chance that he can fix his footwork. I'm more worried about the upper body mechanics with him for two reasons. One, I said this before.He has like a very low arm slot. Um, like he's throwing almost like almost sidearm to it. Like it as about as close to sidearm as you can get, he's throwing like three quarters. Um, that to me, those guys almost always struggle with touch. Um, I think you even see this from Lamar Jackson PERSON. He's, he's kind of the same way. Like he struggles with touch at times because he throws, um, very similar to that. Um, so like, changing arm slot is, I think, a lot trickier because that to me is more muscle memory. Like, you're just, you throw how you throw. So that I'm a little bit scared about. And thenthe other thing with Pennix PERSON, which I guess ties to his footwork a little bit, he's very much someone where when he throws, he drops a lot of his weight and, like, kind of rears back instead of, like you said, leaning into the throw and, throw and like you know kind of punching the ball out i don't know if that's fixable because again i wonder how much of that goes back to like he's kind of trying to protect himself from hits after having four season season ending surgeries which i totally get it's just i wonder how much of that is is really fixable so i do think you know maybe some of his footwork mechanic can be fixedbut the upper body stuff with his arm slot, I'm going to guess that he just throws that way forever. Like at a certain point, you just throw how you throw.

Speaker 3912.38s - 972.34s

Yeah, I think that makes sense. That's why I look at it. I'm like, yeah, the arm slot, the three quarters sort of release, it's like, yeah, that probably is what it is, right? You know, Philip Rivers PERSON is probably the most famous example of having an unorthodox, but the ball was consistently getting to where it needed to go.I think that's an issue with Pinnix PERSON. The ball is not always consistently getting to where it needs to go, but I do feel like the footwork thing could mitigate or solve some of those issues. But, you know, talking about some of the biggest concerns that we have with Piddick PERSON, let's flip the script and talk about some of the strengths, that if you're, you know, you already mentioned sort of the style of offense that you, you think he has, you know,is it just the arm strength that is sort of the thing that stands out? That's his superpower. You know, one of the things we try to do when we evaluate these quarterbacks is find out what's the thing that they're good at, you know, how do they win that sort of conversation? What is that for you when you look at Michael Pennix?

Speaker 2973.56s - 1103.54s

Yeah, I mean, arm strength is the obvious one. I mean, he just throws the hell out of the ball. He can put velocity on it and he could drop it 65 yards down the sideline if he wants to. I think that's going to be an obvious asset. Like even if he's not the most consistently accurate guy to all three levels, just the fact that defenses have to cover every blade of grass is going to help the offense for sure.I think the other thing with Pennix PERSON, and this kind of ties to his arm strength, he is just a naturally aggressive player. He is very, very willing to take his one-on-ones. He's very willing to throw into tight coverage. Obviously, that's going to lead you into some trouble now and then, but you just hope that he develops the rest of his game where, like, that aggressiveness is kind of, you get more good out of it thanyou get bad out of it. And I think in general, he does. Like I said earlier, I would like to see him show that a little bit more over the middle of the field. And again, maybe with two years sitting on the bench, that's something that he can get more comfortable with, especially within the context of this specific offense. But I think in general, he's an aggressive pastor. And I think when you have a guy like Drake London PERSON, that's a very, very nice trait to have. Like, you know, I remember for a while, people were like, oh, all Andy Dalton does is throw it up to AJ Green PERSON. And it's like, well,yeah, he's AJ Green. Like, throw him the ball. And Michael FedEx PERSON is very much willing to do that. So I would always rather have quarterbacks who are aggressive and you have to like teach them how to hone it than guys who are like Gardner Minchu PERSON and like don't know how to push the ball. So those are probably my biggest strengths with Michael Pennings PERSON. I will say too, even though I have some concerns about how he moves in the pocket, how he's able to move, you know, when he needs to create outside the pocket, I do think he's very tough.Like he is willing to take hits and willing to, if he knows hell or high water, he needs to throw this post. He'll hang in there and throw the post. Like he's really not afraid to do that. And I do think if this offense is going to be, you know, run the ball, play action, take these aggressive shots, you kind of have to have that do or die mentality in the pocket.And he does have that. So I do think he has certain aspects that could work well in the offense. It's just, again, I think some of the middle of the field work. I would like to see him over the, you know, year or two that he has to sit, develop that. And if he can, they might have something. I do think like there is a possibility there.

Speaker 31104.12s - 1139.8s

Yeah, yeah. That's kind of my thing with Pinnix PERSON where it's like I look at like there is a possibility there. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's kind of my thing with Pinnix where it's like I look at him as is, you know, kind of late first, early second round. So it feels like the top 10 pick is a little bit of a reach. But I think the Falcons ORG have a unique scenario where they can sit this guy for two years. We work some things, including the mechanics. And the player that we may seefrom Michael Panics in, say, 2026 in an ideal world may be very different or very much better than the player that we see today. You think that's a fair way to look at it? Yeah, I do think it's possible.

Speaker 21139.8s - 1190.78s

I will say I'm probably less optimistic of it, mostly because of his age. And it's not like, you know, older players can never get better. It's just that when you're looking at guys like Drake or Caleb or even JJ McCarthy, who are 20, 21 years old and a very obviously shown NFL ORG ability at that point after one or two years of starting in college, that to me is a lot more moldable than a guy who's played and started for six seasons. Like at a certain point,you've kind of already seen a lot and you've probably made a lot of the development that you can make. Obviously, when you get to the NFL ORG, the coaching is different, the environment's different, and guys can get better. It's just that I think generally these older prospects, it's a little bit harder to teach them and like, you know, make them into something new as opposed to some of these younger guys who are just way more athletic, way moretalented.

Speaker 31191.32s - 1213.1s

Yeah, I think that's definitely fair. I'm a personal, a little less concerned about the age and I probably normally would be just because I think some of that is attributed to him just constantly getting hurt as opposed to, you know, him, you know, starting 40 games in his first, you know, four years and then deciding, like, I'm going to stay for two more years. And, you know, Jaden Daniels start like 60 some odd games DATE or whatever.

Speaker 21213.58s - 1219.38s

Although, you know, I think Pennis did start like 45 games.

Speaker 31219.46s - 1338.46s

So it's not like he didn't play a lot. So we'll see on that. So let's talk a little bit more with Derek Classen PERSON about, you know, how we're going to design an offense around Michael Pinnix, especially looking at the wide receiver position and whether or not, you know,a player like Drake London PERSON is the sort of ideal fit for a wide receiver one with Michael Pinnock PERSON's under center.

You know, talking a little bit about sort of his willingness to push it.You know, I've been watching a lot of Pinnock's film over the last couple of days. And, you know, it just you see so many, so often on his film when it's like he sees, oh, I got a one-on-one with Roma Dunez PERSON. Okay, like, good luck stopping that. And do you see that type of, you know, rapport that he could potentially build with Drake London down the road where it's just like, if you're going to single that guy up, I'm going to throw it up and my guy's going to go and get it. And that's something that could easily translate

Speaker 21338.46s - 1398.8s

with Pinnix in London here in Atlanta. I think so. And like, I really think people don't get how good Drake London is. I mean, I think people of people who listen to this show and our Atlanta Falcons ORG fans probably get it. I think to me he's like borderline like top 10 receiver. Like he is truly a special talent that if you have a quarterback like Michael Pennix or even truthfully like if Kirk PERSON is just as good as Kirk has been in Minnesota, I think we're very obviously going to see what Drake PERSON is capable of. So I do think with the quarterback like Pennix PERSON, who again, like you said,when he just gets his one-on-ones is very willing to throw it. I think with London, it'll look a little bit different than it did at Washington ORG, where it was like so many go-balls, so many slot fades. Like that to me is London PERSON can do it, but he's more of like a, we're going to run a 12-yard stop route and just pin it on his chest. And I do think Michael is London PERSON can do it but he's more of like a we're going to run a 12 yard stop route and just pin it on his chest and I do think Michael Pennix can do that but that'sme is more what I think it's going to look like but I do think that that's when Michael Pennix gets to play that's probably going to be his easiest mode of offenses hey where's

Speaker 31398.8s - 1440.32s

Jake London and does he have a free one-on-one yeah and on that note you know if you know, if and when Michael Pinnis PERSON gets the play down the future and, you know, there may be a very different Falcons ORG roster, especially at the wide receiver position than they currently, you know, again, we're assuming Drake Lennon PERSON's going to be here, but who else? Don't know, Darnell Mooney or Rondell Moore PERSON. But I'm curious, like, if you're sort of designing an offense around Michael Pinnock's PERSON,is it those sort of big ball winners on the outside, the speed guys on the outside to sort of maximize the skill set that you talked about? Or, you know, do you feel like Pinnock PERSON's can make any type of receiver good like the high level quarterbacks can?

Speaker 21442.48s - 1518.56s

As he is now, I don't think Michael pennix can make every receiver good like there are certain receivers who function more with like just being in the right spot at the right time um you know playing with really good like quickness over the short area all that sort of stuff being more like one to 10 yard QUANTITY area operating receivers that's just not the style of player that that michael pennix makes good like like a cole beasley PERSON or something would be half as effective with Michael Penix as he would be with like a Philip Rivers PERSON or whatever.Like I'm just throwing out names, but like that's kind of the type of receiver that I think Michael Pennix is not going to get the most out of. I think with Michael Penix PERSON you want, again, I'm going to bring up a Bruce Ariens PERSON offense, but like the Brady Bucks where you had Mike Evans and Chris Godwins PERSON who are just big, catch everything in their radius. That to me is the type of offense that I think you want to construct for Michael Pennix. Obviously, they have one of those in Drake London. If Kyle Pitts PERSON can stayhealthy, he's kind of one of those two, even though he's, you know, kind of a tight end, kind of of receiver, whatever. So I think that to me is more the style of receiver that you want to get with Michael Pennix. As he is right now, again, there's a chance that he develops and his timing is a little bit better. His short area accuracy is better. Maybe that could all happen. Like I said, as he is now, I think you want just big guys who he can throw the ball to and can catch everything in their radius.Yeah.

Speaker 31518.82s - 1570.1s

So Derek, I really appreciate your insight into Michael Pennix. We didn't get a lot of time talking about him before just because it was like, oh, that's not going to happen. So now we get this opportunity to dig deeper. And it's, you know, it's going to be interesting to see what type of player he develops into. If he changes and grows and adapts and all that stuff, you know, my sort of impression of the draft is like, you know,regardless of who you take, it's usually a bet that you're making from three years from now as opposed to right away. And I think Michael Pinnis perfectly embodies that in the sense of like, we're probably not going to see him for at least three years. We'll see. But Derek PERSON, again, I appreciate you joining me. Let the people know, now that the draft is over, you know,what are you working on this summer? Where can people find your stuff?

Speaker 21571.18s - 1620.56s

Yeah, first of all, thanks for having me. Like you said, we didn't really get to talk about Michael Panis because it seemed like this was not on the table, but pretty fun to loop back to it. It is always fun talking about quarterbacks where, again, you had no idea that this is where they were going to end up.It makes for a very fun post-draft conversation. But anyway, you guys can find me on Twitter at QB Class ORG. Obviously, our bleacher reports, like draft stuff is over, but I will be doing a little bit of writing there about the NFL kind of tying back to some of the rookies over the summer. And then over at reception, I'm going to be charting basically every NFL ORG quarterback or at least the ones that are expected to start again next year. So it'll be, you know, up to about 28 guys or something like that.So I've already started on that. And I think we'll start rolling out the profiles in a month or so. So that's definitely something to look forward to. Okay.

Speaker 31620.68s - 1623.16s

Are you going to do one for the Arizona Cardinals ORG backup quarterback?

Speaker 21624.62s - 1628.36s

We'll see. We'll see. If I have the time, I might.

Speaker 31628.66s - 1825.7s

My heart wants to. I don't know if it's necessary. You know, I would just be personally curious to see what that charting looks like, you know, having watched it for a full season just to see where you sort of come down on that. But, you know, we'll see. But again, Derek, really appreciate you joining me on today's Lockdown Fathers WORK_OF_ART. So, guys, that is going to do it for us here on today's Lockdown Falkins ORG.Thanks for Derek Classen PERSON for joining. We've got another week of Michael Pinnock's PERSON, you know, content here on the podcast.
