Personally, I was thinking, "If they do this right, they are going to have to burn it down. The entire roster was bad. Keeping Burns and his 10-sack seasons would have kept us from building other things. If you notice, we are building the offense for 2024, to see what we have in Bryce. The truth is, nobody knows how this will turn out--but the Huddle needs to be more than a place for people who are butt hurt to bitch and moan, making the same comments over and over. We get it--you are pissed. It is not going to get better right away because we had some trigger-happy firings and decisions were made impulsively to save the jobs of coaches and front office personnel. This, to me, looks like they have been given more rope and a longer runway. We have a good group of athletes in the draft where our needs are--it is a good year to clean house and rebuild. Yes, we will miss Burns, but the man was not about his teammates, the fans, the organization--he was about Brian Burns. I get it, but any athlete that admits not performing 100% at all times is going to do it again. I think he may have had a reason, as stated before, but a Captain who has odds with the management is probably a cancer.

Trade one of your seconds to Cincy for Tee Higgins

The draft is loaded--but yes, I would do that. he is 25. -
Man, now I wish we had not done this and paid $3.3m per sack. (sarcasm) Folks, he was not that great. We get the #39 pick in a very deep draft at positions we need. We get $25m to spend to keep Brown and maybe sign another player. Point? There is another side.

BREAKING: Giants looking to trade for Brian Burns
MHS831 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think there are a lot of things that we do not know. I do not think keeping him was an option. Imagine if they let him hit free agency? Morgan did not make this problem--someone predicted that Burns would only get a third. It is probably going to get ugly before it gets better.- 543 replies

BREAKING: Giants looking to trade for Brian Burns
MHS831 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
The money is the issue. Now we can get a WR, Brian is not worth $30m per for 5 years. Burns, in Morgan's opinion, was not a dawg and I am guessing that he did not see him as a 3-down OLB. We have YGM and Barno and will likely add an Edge now. With the cap savings, we can also add 2 more need positions. I am disappointed, but I am not blaming Morgan. BB was damaged goods here, and teams were aware.- 543 replies

what makes you say this? I can say that (I used to work Sports at the Observer when in grad school, so I am familiar with the 'behind the scenes' concerns. I worry that she is a bit aggressive, trying to get out ahead of the story--it is competitive now--moreso than it used to be.- 543 replies

Right. If a 6'6"g keeps the DT within a yard of the line of scrimmage or a 6'3" offensive guard lets the DT get two yards into the pocket, the 6'6" G is easier to see over. If I hold a tennis ball a foot from me and a basketball 10 feet from me, the tennis ball looks bigger. Kinda like magic.

MHS831 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Probably a good point--but something is holding this up. If other teams are involved, it would also be a waste of everyone's time to have a contract worked out before a trade was in place--I assume that Burn's agent gave the Giants a ballpark figure, and the devil is in the details. I dunno because nobody does.- 543 replies

MHS831 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Brian Burns actually could refuse to sign the tag, if I am not mistaken. They have to agree on a long term contract. New york looking for someone to play opposite Thibideaux (Sp). With the #6 pick, they can get a QB. Burns is the only person who can stump this deal. The Giants did not re-sign Barkley, letting him go to a division rival. Now that the news of this gets out, their fans will storm the castle if they dont make it happen. They have the cap room (I just saw $38m--dont know how updated it is)- 543 replies

I think in trades, they pay by the pound. We'd get a seventh round conditional pick in 2027- 543 replies

I imagine the sticking point is the contract with Burns--just as it was with us--the Giants would offer less if the deal was higher--I assume. Morgan is earning his $$$ today---he should be playing them off each other.- 543 replies

BREAKING: Giants looking to trade for Brian Burns
MHS831 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
no--they are going after a QB, imo. The fact that they did not want to give up a second (if true) is probably the reason this is dragging out. They need it to move up. I am totally guessing, but if we take both seconds now, they can't move up as easy.- 543 replies

Don't forget, Morgan was a LB---he knew that Luvu was a gap shooter--and for every tackle for loss we saw him get, we got gashed when he guessed wrong. Morgan knew what he was doing here. Give him credit.
