All beginning of the season thoughts behind us, I for one am so glad we have a player like Brian burns on the team, I truly believe he will be a strong leader and team player for us for a long time, his speech to the team, on the sidline during the bucs game was so encouraging, to watch someone so talented and quiet publicly show that  in the trenches with his team he holds himself and everyone else accountable, then backs it all up on the field every week win lose or tie. I’m buying his jersey this week it’s going right next to my mills, Davis and keek jerseys.

I can't believe that this is a topic of thought?!? Why would a smart team trade away 1 of their most productive players who is in his 2nd year of his career in this league??? May as well trade McCaffrey while we're at it!! Probably should call the team the Carolina Jets or Carolina Dolphins just for shites & giggles.

 

Such a boneheaded consideration. Trading a 2nd year player who is showing greatness to get a pick or 2 in the next draft so the team can try to develop them for 2 years away.

To be fair this topic was brought up prior to the season when some felt that burns couldnt transition from a 3/4 OLB to a 4/3 DE.  I never agreed with that, but its unfair to bring up topics like this months later

Again look what he did as a rookie before he hurt his wrist. He was playing great.

      Qbs aren't defined by physical abilities. Brady, Brees, Manning, Montana, Warner,.....doesn't seem to correlate.

      Corbett might not be gone

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
