Brian Burns "Panthers have shown the most interest"

I've really started coming along to him lately, especially seeing how much we're looking at a 3-4 look. Dude's got ton of talent and similar stats to Von Miller's college career at similar frame.

His play's also very encouraging. Hope we get him.

From a nice article RoaringRiot wrote

https://theriotreport.com/four-defensive-linemen-for-the-panthers-to-consider-in-the-first-round/

“I think teams are considering me both in a 3-4 and a 4-3. I talk to teams about dropping, and also about staying down in a (three-point) stance; and just playing off the edge. Pass rushers are definitely at a premium in the NFL. It’s a passing league; teams want people who are going to get after the quarterback, most definitely.”

Thing I love the most about him is his flat out versatility.

He reminds me a Lot of Mack as far as his ability to drop in coverage

He also is tall and long, but has Elite bend which is Huge for a pass rusher

I don't like how obvious we're making this. I don't worry so much about teams already ahead of us in the draft order. They have to know there's virtually no chance of him making it to their second pick anyway. I worry about teams behind us who may be willing to trade up to leapfrog us.

I did the Everette Brown thing early without much study. It was definitely wrong on my part. Still feel like a lot of his success is straight line speed. Obviously NFL tackles (You know other than ours) arent giving direct shots on the Qb. That being said Id gladly take him at 16 if Sweat n Ferrell are gone. Ill throw Gary in there as well. We will get one of them. It is possible that the perfect pick will be the last guy on the list and the Hurnia boys can tell us how great he is! Ill take any of those guys over a Lt that there is no consensus top 3. Grab a project in the 2nd or 3rd.

I’m not a big college football fan at all..but from what little tape I’ve watched, I really like this guy. Seems like he has a great motor to go with his speed...and having someone that fast gives the other offense something to have to gameplan for which will only help Mario and Short( who I expect to bounce back)...of course it’s just him saying we’re showing the most interest. That doesn’t mean mean it’s more interest than we are showing Ferrell/Sweat/etc...I’d bet we’re spending a lot of time on all of the passrushers. It’s no secret to anyone we need them.  You gotta like the Von Miller comparisons...that level talent will transform this defense back to a top ten and we will start closing out these close 4th quarter losses

I'm in the same boat as well. I've made a quick judgment on Brian Burns because of his FSU Everette Brown connection. I was actually a huge fan of Everette Brown in FSU days and thought he would succeed. Unfortunately he was asked to anchor in a 4-3 defense that was not meant for him. I've always thought that Everette may have had more success if he was picked up by a 3-4 team as a pass-rushing linebacker instead of a DE. Now we have a prospect that's more athletic and has more size than Brown and had as much a prestigious career in his college days. With our emphasis on more 3-4 packages on defense, and with Everette Brown as a mentor, I think it can work this time around.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
