Yes but Crosby can play the run and wasn't a 1st rd pick.

You guys way overvalue the guy

Who cares what pick he was at this point it’s about production. Crosby is going to want to get paid too. Why do you think Burns is so bad against the run? Teams aren’t crushing us on the ground running his direction. Also keep in mind Burns was being coached by Snow who has been dropping him into coverage on 3rd and long. That’s a prime sack situation.

Top 10 over the past 3 years at age 26 sounds excellent to me.

Look at those numbers again he's not even close to the guys ahead of him and on a sack per game basis there's multiple guys below him on the list that are more productive. 

.9 sacks per game is where I need him to be.

Buy he's probably at .5 sacks per game which lots of guys can do

Top 10 at 24. That list includes HoF guys line Donald that aren’t even edge rushers. You don’t think top 10 in the NFL is great? I do like how you claim we are overvaluing a guy after you cried we didn’t get enough from trading our always injured overpaid RB.

I am going to take a step back and realize something…

I am not your therapist here but you seem to be looking at things as all perfect or all terrible.  There are people that can help you realize that there are different layers to the cake,  they are all good.  Try that please

First of all Cmac is the best in the league at his position. There is no RB I would trade him for straight up.

Burns isn't close to the best at his position. 

That's a huge difference. 

And Cmac wasn't oft injured.

If we would have been a playoff team he would have come back and played both those seasons. It was a hammy and an ankle FFS.

The man had 4000 yards from scrimmage in 2 years. We will never get that production from a non QB again. 

We can find tons of guys that get 9 sacks a year.

Burns is solid. He needs to make a huge leap.

Most elite guys are already putting up elite numbers at this point in their careers.

I'm sorry you can't see the truth.

If another team offered 2 first…granted I don’t know…but that says a lot.  Forget numbers seriously…Burns is our best player by a mile.  He is all over the field making plays.  Respect man

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
