That was before this season which clearly lowered his value.

If that is true that also hold true in other areas. If Burns only had 8-9 sack how many times did he blow by tackles and force qbs off their spot and comfort zone.. disruption is production.

Not sure 20-25 million

This fine.. he generates pressure at an abnormal rate. disruption is production. and for 20-25 mill a year thats what i want him to do.

Hes not going to demand 30 million his value at this point is 20-25 million and we can absoutely afford to pay him that.

The Burns bashing is way beyond the levels of crazy. Did he have a down year by his standards yes, but so did the entire team. Being the sole pass rushing threat on the defense teams must account for is difficult enough. Not to mention playing on the tag risking serious injury or financial ruin. When other held out for contracts Burns showed up to camp ready and excited to join his teammates. Despite what the huddle thinks hes still well regarded around the league and would still demand a first round compensation. The problem with trading him is you have to replace him, and replacing his first round pedigree with anything other than a first round talent(dj johnson and gross) is near impossible. You would have to burn another first and hope he becomes a top 10 presence. I mean look at the pressure generated by the defense and if you listen to the way fans tell it Burns is the problem.

I really dont blame him. especially playing for nothing at that point. for a 2 win team you want me to go full throttle and give up my livelyhood for nothing?

Burns had 8 sacks which is down from hid average but not nothing to throw away

cant believe taking a qb in the second round is even on the table. Bryce gets sacked 7 times a game almost at will and you want to plug a fresh lamb into the slaughter?

stay 3-4 scheme around it add to the pieces we got.

Not how it works... you dont scout helmets you scout players. What your doing is saying is all ohio state qbs suck... which would make you miss on stroud... or to a less extention justin fields.

Not really how it works. Eagles defensive line is ridiculously OP. Jordan davis jaylan carter Fletcher cox Josh sweat Hassan reddick nolan smith btandon Graham. Their 2nd stringers would definitely start for most teams and their 3rd stringers could impact most teams. I would argue they might have the most talented pass rushers this decade. Their throw aaways are worth investigating.

With the talent they have on their defensice line i could easily see this being worth a wavier claim. guy could come in day 1 and push Gross Matos.. what say you

Waviers not his choice....

seeing as the steelers judt signed blake Martinez off our practice squad we could use a linebacker.. if he clears waviers i dont doubt we kick the tires.

on second thought

I mean understandable but wouldnt hurt to kick the tires for a wavier claim... we are currently trotting out former Falcons star who is also a shell of his former self....give me the younger 1.

Not sure where we stand but I think this would be a easy W and allow Frankie to go back to what he does best and giving us some depth..

why would i not? has he shown anything to make you believe he wouldnt? in fact he said during the bryce analysis she was heavily involved in the process.

apologies my bad was in my feed

not sure if this is true but if he said this... proven un true* but sounds about right. sorry for the misinformation.

I dont get the Burns hate. Yes he's a 1 trick. But its a hell of a trick. If hes rated the number 1 free agent in the league top 5 pass rusher at his position who else on the Panthers roster is top 5 of anything????? Yes you could get a first or optimally 2 first for him, but 1 of those picks at the least has to go to replacing him because did you see us on Thursday... Our pass rush without him was nonexistent.. it was awful.. 0 pressure or even hope for pressure.. Having him doesnt help bryce but Its a luxury of having an elite blitzer that you have to have...

not having him doesn’t make our win total go up and replacing him would cost you another first maybe 2 first to find someone as good.

umm yeah blitzers getting to the qb is sorta 1 trick...q

the next day and im still laughing at this lol
