MHS PRIORITY LIST  (And this is based on expected costs)  To focus on Offense, we need to bring back our D--

  • LOLB - Brian Burns (UFA) Snap Percentage (77.16) - PFF Grade 74.1  (Not worth the big bucks.  I hate it, but he made it difficult for us to pay him what he wants.  As you should never reach in the draft, the same applies to free agency.  Tag and trade, or just tag.  He is #1 priority in order to get something for him.
  • ILB - Frankie Luvu (UFA) Snap Percentage (93.84) - PFF Grade 78.5  Seems to me that he is the underdog done good story and is now a leader.  He's a dog, and we will bring him back. Elite at his position? Not really
  • ROLB - Yetur Gross-Matos (UFA) Snap Percentage (44.17) - PFF Grade 65.4  (surprised but he played his role fairly well.  Has been progressing each year.  See if he returns on a budget, but I see a market for him.  4.5 sacks is not good, but 4 fumble recoveries tells he is always around the ball)
  • LOLB - Marquis Haynes SR (UFA) Snap Percentage (13.46) - PFF Grade 71.9  Getting better with age
  • NB - Jeremy Chinn (UFA) Snap Percentage (27.11) - PFF Grade 57.7  Was he a one-hit wonder or has he been misused?  Too good to not try to keep.  I would want to leave, if i were him.
  • DT - Nick Thurman (ERFA) Snap Percentage (34.79) - PFF Grade 63.4  Pleasantly surprised.  at 29 in his prime.  I would try to keep him.
  • CB - Shaquill Griffin (UFA) Snap Percentage (7.30) - PFF Grade 67.0   Why not?  Bigger need than we realize.  Need some depth there.  Not sure about the Jackson contract or Horn's hangnail issue.  1-2 year deal
  • WR- Ihmir Smith-Marsette (RFA) Snap Percentage (10.70) - PFF Grade 63.6  He will be 25.  Plays STs.  Showed flashes.  Lowball him, but I would give him an offer
  • WR - Laviska Shenault JR (UFA) Snap Percentage (8.01) - PFF Grade 67.4  This guy could be the sleeper  nobody is talking about--may be nice in the new system....Wild card, and only 26.  Should be cheap.  He should get resigned, but the injury stuff may eliminate him
  • FS - Sam Franklin JR (UFA) Snap Percentage (27.39) - PFF Grade 58.0  Special teamer, but does stupid stuff to get holding penalties

- would not be surprised if we let all these guys hit free agency 

- Stephen Sullivan, LaBryan Ray, and Nick Thurman were already re-signed 

- we need to make Yetur Gross-Matos a priority especially if we don't bring back Burns

Jeff Diamond, the former general manager of the Minnesota Vikings and team president of the Tennessee Titans, recently predicted the mega-deals for this year’s top free agents. Here, per The 33rd Team, is what he thinks a pact between the Panthers and their two-time Pro Bowl pass rusher could look like:

It makes sense for the Panthers to franchise tag Burns and negotiate a long-term deal — four years, $100 million, with more than half guaranteed. As a former Pro Bowl linebacker, new Carolina general manager Dan Morgan doesn’t want to lose one of his top defensive players.

There's only two players on that list you'd absolutely want to keep.

Really, only one. Keeping the other guy would be about tagging and trading.

That is a sad bunch to be watching head to the exit door. Or one could say that has been a sad bunch of folks to be seen getting on the team bus before games.

Best of luck to them.

the difference between our board's perception of Burns and the Falcons board.  They have a thread about PFF's Top 50 free agents and they have fans who really want him...including this post

Open up the vaults for Brian Burns if he hits free agency. That man is a terror. I'd take Burns over Hunter or Allen.

    • Hopefully we end up with the first pick so we can get our qb. That plan worked great for us last time
