Go hold up a sign on Mint St… bc bitching about it here won’t get you anywhere.

I’m not bitching about it.  Burns is the one bitching.  I’m simply stating a fact backed by plenty of statistics that he isn’t top 8 at his position in the NFL.

So you want Fitt to pay Burns 25-30M a season?  Before we even see how he does in a 3-4 scheme?  His numbers don’t even remotely justify him being top 3 in pay at his position 

Yes!

I don't give a poo about how much he gets paid. Hell I wish he can make the most money he can. I just care about him on the field. This defense has no pass rush without him. Get that through your head and stop pocket watching a grown man. You not paying him nothing out of your pocket anyway.

You will be crying for Burns when you see this defense without him. Hell we saw that in the preseason.

 

Burns is our best defensive player. What is with this fanbase and their lack of respect for Burns?

I love Burns.  I want Burns to sign for the next 10 years.  We are better with him.  I never once said I didn’t like him or that he didn’t make us better.  What I did say, is that he isn’t a top 8 player at his position.  And that’s a fact.  I can like a player and acknowledge he isn’t the best player in the world at his position at the same time.

Got it.  Let’s make the same mistake we made with Charles Johnson.  You can’t overpay players out of sheer desperation.  Yes, we are better with him.  No, we shouldn’t pay him like Joey Bosa or TJ Watt.

Maybe he recognizes his worth and value to this defense?

 

He knows he's the only player capable of getting to the QB. Probably why we signed Houston so late in the offseason. Wouldn't surprise me if Tepper is playing hardball.

It is what it is. If he sits out I don't blame him. He's got us by the balls. If we put him on the trade block and took the best offer Fitts would get clowned for weeks for getting far less than we were offered a year ago.

It's sad people can't see this. When he's the only pass rusher on the defense you better bet he's trying to get the most money he can. We signed a 34 year Houston so we can play hardball with Burns.

 

We can't even start the season without drama.

And I’m fine with that.  But don’t do a media parade all off-season about awesome of a man and teammate you are by not holding out…only to stop practicing the week before our first game.  That’s what irritates me the most.  If you want to stand your ground, handle it the way Bosa and Jones are handling it.

      2025 Mock Drafts

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      I think it will be hard to not go edge in the second if we go QB first. Say you have Starks, one of Bond/Egbuka, and maybe one Edge (don't have a name to throw out that is end of 1st round projected and may slide)... do you still go Starks? Just curious. I haven't looked into starks much, as I've been focused on QB, WR, and DL prospects.
