You are talking HOF outliers.

QB is not comparable to playing an actual position in the NFL.

100%. He will be a pass rush specialist for another 6-8 years in the NFL. Likely as a journeyman that bounces around after his next deal.

I was a Burns fan for a while but this season has been a fuging disgrace.

Hell yeah! Get some, Taylor Swift!!!

Notice Maxx Crosby not give up on a play. Wish Burns did that.

If they overturn this INT after that fuging catch call on us yesterday......

That's insane. Why get a coach like Pierce when you can pay $25 mil/yr for a 70 year old Bill Belichick without Tom Brady?

Davis is an idiot. Expect him to make a poor decision.

I hope they are plagued with injuries and lose every game the rest of the way. They can get fuged. I have been a fan long enough to remember they were divisional rivals once. fug the 49ers and everyone on that team.

What I mean is if he refuses to sign he is basically holding out. It's an untenable situation for us and him. We would be absolutely buffoons to attempt to sit him the entire 2024 season and tag him again in 2025. That is lightspeed insane/retarded behavior. It basically means we will trade him eventually.

Depends. What is the price and length?

Well he has been hurt a lot of the year....which is not super surprising

My guess is that someone will push the market value up. That happened with Clowney for a bit before teams realized he just was never going to ascend to elite status.

49ers are 2-2 vs. the AFC this season.

I think the heart question has largely been answered. He quits on routes or gives lackadaisical effort on occasion. He isn't a TMJ level slug but he doesn't add anything that 100 other FA JAG's couldn't. The biggest upgrade this offseason has to be at his position. Move him down to #4 or #5 and hope he develops by the end of his rookie deal.

I think he is likely to refuse to sign if tagged. He bet on himself this season too and it was an absolute disaster for his market value. Better off shutting it down and forcing a move on our part.

Projected tag price for Burns would be 23,342,000 FWIW.

He looks like TMJ 2.0 to me. Same guy, basically. And this is while being the second most targeted receiver on the season. By a VERY wide margin. I definitely realize some of our offensive issues are impacting every aspect of the team but in the two games we have thrown for over 300 yards(SEA and GB) he has 4 rec for 40 yards. So it is almost always other guys finally getting off, not him(he was the 5th and 6th best WR in those two games). Furthermore, he has absolutely zero elite attributes. He barely has any that are NFL average. He was a workout warrior guy. Just like TMJ.

We have basically until the end of January, IMO. If we are still all over the map and can't develop some consistency, we are definitely in trouble. I don't care if we limp into the playoffs provided that we are playing our best hockey the month before they begin.

Notice that Mingo still couldn't get open.

If you want some real wild poo to think about, remember how badly our HOF player Julius Peppers got drug for not giving 100% effort all the time. Now compare his career to Brian Burns, who still has defenders for some reason.

Don't let @Mr. Scot know.....

We can't help that fact. Burns is vastly underperforming and Fitterer sucks. If Fitt had made the trade, maybe we still have DJ Moore(far, far better player than Burns). Or maybe it wouldn't have mattered because we are a rudderless ship. No way to know. The thing we do know is that the haul for Burns was worth far, far, far, FAR more than the player he has been. That is unquestionable.

All of those players have been more productive than Burns as a Panther. We did what we could. It isn't on the team, it is on Burns for not being productive
