Trade Burns. Pay Luvu.

Burns should have been traded last season, yet another Scott Fitterer failures. Meanwhile one of Fitterer’s major successes Frankie Luvu has outperformed his contract and has grown into a menacing player. It’s obvious which one to keep and which one to try to get assets in return.

If it’s a wash year spent developing Young it’s not a bad idea to trade Burns if you can get good value for him. Luvu should be much cheaper to keep them you can pay a WR like Higgins the contract he wants and also extend Brown (who I think is the most important person on defense). It’s not a terrible idea and someone will overpay for Burns.

While they are all in their prime

Now that's the ticket to winning. 

Burns is the only one on that list that truly made sense to trade. The Rams made a stupid offer last season to get him.

How many sacks/TFLs does Luvu get if the OL isn't preoccupied with accounting for Burns?

Burns was 1 v 1 most of the game. I'm not sayiing he didn't have an impact becuase he did, if only under the surface since it wasn't on the stat sheet, but the Saints were not generally dedicating extra blockers to him.

    • Thanks Ice and Juan.  I appreciate people who produce and bring content to the table.   Without further ado, my reactions, and I will try to be "laconic" (word of the day): 8- Edge/LB Jalon Walker:  A great football player.  He must be used properly.  Does not eliminate the need for an edge--and we do not draft an edge here. 57- DT T.J. Sanders:  I really liked him at SC--a beast. A DE.  I am not sure how we will rotate in at NT--and I see NT as our biggest DL need IF we play Wharton at DE. 74- WR Jack Bech:  Love this guy.  a Dawg.  Eric Decker II. 111- S Billy Bowman Jr.  Good value here, but I was hoping for a S earlier.  I want one of the top 2 because if both S have position versatility, and we have Walker and DL with position versatility, we'd be hard to play. 114- CB Dorian Strong:  Fine. A depth piece behind Horn and Jackson (he he). However, I think CB is a bigger need than people are projecting. 140- LB Demetrius Knight Jr.:  Another Gamecock--love him.  Morgan will love him.  A dawg.  A steal here. 146- G Caleb Rogers:  Don't we have enough guards?  Moton is in his final year and we don't draft a T? 163- RB Jarquez Hunter:  Not sure I have ever heard of him--probably suing his parents for naming him Jarquez--but the name does mean "Strong and valiant" if spelled correctly.  Do his friends call him Jar Jar?  I would. 230- S Maxen Hook  The great grand son of Peter Pan's nemesis.  He has both hands--for now, but that is because Toledo did not play the Florida Gators.  
    • Moose Muhammed had suspect hands early in his career and seemed to improve--but my experience is this--some QBs throw a ball that some WRs struggle to catch vs. others.  A tighter spin, more velocity, timing in route--I can't put my finger on it specifically, but in college we had 5 or so qbs and one or two were harder to catch than the others.  In fact, I climbed the depth chart because I could catch the starter (threw it hard) better than others-but the second team QB gave me fits.  Maybe that has something to do with it?
