Cousins had some bright spots last season -- he twice threw four TD passes in a game, once topping 500 yards -- but with eighth overall pick Michael Penix lurking, it was only a matter of time before Cousins was pushed aside. He's fortunate he lasted as long as he did. In his last five games, Cousins threw one TD pass to nine interceptions before he was finally benched Weeks 16-18. Trading Cousins is easier said than done, because he has a no-trade clause and wants to start. The Falcons will need to eat a lot of his salary to get a deal done, but it's unclear how much they're willing to keep. The only way he'll regain the starting job in Atlanta is if Penix is injured or struggles horribly this season. In that case, Cousins would only have value in two-QB leagues at most. He looked washed up down the stretch last year, ranking 30th among 35 QBs in on-target percentage Weeks 10-15. He hasn't run for a touchdown since 2022, and his mediocre arm isn't getting any stronger (he threw only 7.3 percent of his attempts beyond 20 yards last year, ranking 32nd).
