Trade Burns for Jaylon Johnson and some picks

Recommended Posts

Jaylon Johnson and the Bears could not come to an agreement on a contract extension and his agent was told they can seek a trade. He is a true #1 corner and has had to cover #1 with an inferior pass rush the past few seasons. We obviously have corner issues here in Carolina. Right now Troy Hill and CJ Henderson are our starting Corners and Jaycee Horn is never available. 

We lose both Troy Hill and Henderson at the end of the year to free agency as well. 

I would make the pitch:

**Panthers get**

CB Jaylon Johnson

Chicago Bears 2nd round pick ( Currently 37 )

Chicago Beards 3rd round pick ( Currently 68 )

This would give Carolina picks 34, 37, 66 and 68. 

**Bears get**

DE Brian Burns

 

We get a long term secondary player and some decent draft capital back after the trade up to get Young, and extend him for significantly cheaper than what Burns is going to get. Chicago gets the pass rushing DE they have been after and can sign him easily as they have the most cap space going into next season and the second most the year after that. I also think it makes sense for Chicago to trade Justin Fields right now ( I am not sure I believe his dislocated thumb can't grip a football this week ) and they already announced TBag is the starter this week. I think that is to give Tyson all the reps with the ones while they take offers for Justin so they can get some of this draft capital back. 

Johnson is an 84.4 grade on PFF is thats your kind of thing. And he is doing this with no pass rush. Chicago is dead last with 10 sacks as a team. 5 lower than the next lowest team. Chicagos leading sack guy has 2 on the season.

I would take that.

Sounds good but the reality is they will have two picks in the top 5 and can have their pick of the top rushers in next year's draft. There's no need for them to make a trade like that.

A bird in hand. Burns is still very young for the NFL. The only other trade I feel would be better for the Bears would be trying to make a trade in similar fashion to the Commanders for Chase Young plus other assets.

As much as we need pass rushers, doubt Poles will be willing to give up any of the 1st & 2nd round picks. I also think they have no intention of trading JJ. Poles will set the price high enough most teams will not be interested.

The rumor on the Bears sub is that this will help give Johnson a view of what other teams would pay him now, they don't trade him away, and they offer him a contract that matches the best of what his agent could get from another team.

Good lord this might be the worst idea I’ve seen to date 

Yes let’s use our only real trade chip to get a corner… that’ll help Bryce

A corner and two draft picks that we could use on .... drum roll.... offensive players to .... drum roll .... help Bryce on offense!!!

Good lord this reply might be the worst reply on the huddle I have ever seen in the history of the huddle or its previous iterations. Lets be overly dramatic rather than add any sort of value to the conversation.

PANTHERS GET:
CB Jaylon Johnson
EDGE Yannick Ngakoue
2024 2nd Round Pick
2024 3rd Round Pick

BEARS GET:
EDGE Brian Burns
WR Terrace Marshall, Jr.
2025 6th Round Pick

This would be a significant get for us so we can't allow that.

Ah yes draft picks… we sure seem to use those well.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
