Damnit. I figured, but I was drinking that Darnold 3-0 Kool-Aid again, and I had hope.

P.S. I highly suggest staying away from the stuff. The Kool Aid is good at first, but the aftertaste will have you sick for months.

I’m just asking I can’t see Burn being an All pro year in year out like the true stud pass rushers 

That's subjective and remains to be seen. But I think Burns can be a game breaker, but he needs to be utilized the right way. It would also help if he had more opportunities to pin his ears back and JUST rush the passer on obvious passing downs. Something he hasn't had the luxury of much, since joining three league since we're often behind at the end of games.

But that being said, you could replace All-Pro with Elite or even "A player of Burns's caliber", and I don't think the context of the message changes at all.

Are you saying Burns is an All-pro pass rusher? 

No. I do not know his ceiling though he is only 24 years old. I was referring to this notion that just because we have an extra pick or two that means we not only won't miss but we will get a generational talent who will develop faster than other pass rushers. This same logic has been applied to the reasoning behind trading DJ Moore because we will draft another wide receiver and hit again. It's like people here haven't watched this franchise whiff on draft picks on a regular basis. If you're a Panthers fan you know nothing is a given with our drafts. We have talent in place get the right QB and the right coach and go from there.

It’s not just the picks but the money he will command that we be able to use aswell

Is Burns elite though hasn’t had double digit sacks in his career yet. Got out produced by Reddick last year and isn’t the best at holding the edge against the run. Do we really want to break the bank for that let alone passing up on a great rebuilding haul to pay him

Would two late first rounders give you anything close to what Burns offer? I don’t think so, but I know a lot of people do.

Sometimes investing in young players that put the work in, continue to improve, and consistently flash greatness is worth it. Every player has a price, but Burns might be the only player on the roster who I feel has consistently demonstrated they can turn into one of the greats. I'm not sure I can say that for anyone else on the roster, yet. That combined with me picturing the defensive line without him has me at a hard no for trading him unless it's for a serious haul.

I would understand if they did take 2 firsts+ a player or something for him. Especially with a big contact not far off. And I don't fault anyone not wanting to keep a player because of 'potential'. For me, Burns has that 'it' factor and is worth hanging onto.

I’m the same bunge I’m easy either way. I would rather we traded him for a great haul but would not be phased if we payed him

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
