Did you not pay attention to the posting about the event? Did you expect him to state "no adults allowed?" How do you think he has control over who shows up? I am curious how you think he was "hanging around the wrong crowd?" What exactly is the wrong crowd?

Hanging around the wrong crowd? Kids?

Wow. What a period by Martin.

Jeebus. This is a crazy finish

Gassed.

What the actual fug

Difficult because people will be calling for Cam.

Good God we almost lost on that one.

Considering travel, kinda true.

Buffalo perhaps. Not at Atlanta. He would just make it difficult for whomever is their underwhelming starter.

Time to see what we have left in the tank. Definitely do not want to see extra time.

I am not sure where he would be a good backup, TBH. Either way, he has transitioned successfully to the next stage in his life. He doesn't need the NFL anymore.

He isn't. That shoulder is shot. Were that not the case, he'd still be an NFL star.

Watch it again. He was punching the dude on Cam.

I love that this dude is whupping their asses dressed like a Harry Potter character.

Burns would be in his prime on a 5 year deal. The issue is investing in a player that might not be as invested as you want.

Eh, Howell is a traditional gunslinger and those guys are not as high demand in the modern NFL(see Jameis Winston, Trubisky, Wentz, etc). The outliers are guys like Stafford or perhaps Mayfield to an extent. Howell would sort of have to re-invent himself to be a long term franchise QB, IMO. Which, that is through the lens of the modern NFL. He's young enough to where perhaps that aggressive high risk/high reward style of play becomes more acceptable in the future. Most modern NFL offenses seem very much more TO averse than at some points historically. Hence why that style of play seems to be less in favor. All that said, I would definitely take Howell for a mid-rounder. TBH, at this point I'd rather see a Winston or Howell type than I would whatever the fug Bryce Young was doing last year.

He doesn't necessarily "need" to be retained. We aren't going to lose games because he isn't here. It isn't like he has won us games solely because he isn't the type of pass rusher to just take over a game. If he can be retained a reasonable price and IF he doesn't immediately shut down because he got his big deal(I think most of this fanbase should be concerned about this given recent play and comments) then it would be nice to retain him. But if it takes away from our ability to sign bigger game changers on defense, he is not worth keeping. Until he basically becomes an elite DE, none of is should want to see him get elite DE money. That's the thing about most of the upper tier DE's with massive contracts, they showed that BEFORE they got their mega-deals. Burns has not done that.

I mean, he would be 28-29. I would hardly call that "past his prime."

He might be worth a first to a few teams but you have to trade him to a team that will sign him for that bonkers price. That is where you are gonna start to lose potential buyers pretty quickly

Yeah, that is on old school mentality. TBH, we are probably a decade into rookie WR's making instant impacts. The NFL offenses have changed to where the learning curve is not what it once was. It's easier for a rookie WR to play well. Hence why it is so infuriating that we have drafted guys like TMJ and Mingo.

That would actually be a win of sorts. We offered 5 years and $27 mil, supposedly.
