Not a good moment here for us.

Hasn't been a good 6 years of moments for us truth be told.

It's actually kind of fascinating to see these negotiations like this.

This will be moot when James Pearce comes to town in 2025.

This is literally, "So, I would like some pussy." 

Ends up, "I'll suck anyone's dick."

That's the negotiating tactic I see.

It's all about those Dawgs has a broader meaning I guess...

To me it felt sarcastic when he said two firsts. He knew there was no chance, especially with the contract Burns would command. But obviously we should have sent on if the huddles many master negotiators, that would have guaranteed 10-15 first rounders.

Yeah, you can tell the two first thing was a play on the rams offer. This was “shooting the poo” as people say.

Burns playing like a bum all last season  tanked his trade value and contract. If he shows out and plays like an animal all season, we get at least a first and he might have gotten the money he wanted.

Instead, he showed the league he’s all about the business decision. Sounds like a GM killer to me. Morgan would have taken a Burger King Italian chicken sandwich (bring it back, BK) to get him gone.

Yeah as already stated in this thread and numerous other times, turning down the rams offer killed any chance of getting a haul for him now

Not going to fault Morgan, at least this time around, glad Burns is gone and we were able to flip that money over into the OL

Agree…and damn that’s wild to think about.

Wow actually watching this. They didn't pay Saquon because they invested in Daniel Jones and want to see him sling it lol.

Jones showed 10x what Bryce showed in their respective rookie seasons.

Jones didn’t have the crapshow of a team that Bryce had as a rookie either.

Nothing personal, but can we please move on from the Bryce-bashing and look ahead to next season?

No because what was stated was true. Many rookie QBs have had a rough rookie year but also showed something. Bryce did not and it wasn't all the crap show around him, he was a substantial part of that crap show. His best game as the GB game and the other team looked like they had their heads up their butts more than the Panthers were good IMO. 

Don't like it? I sympathize but no one has to play pretend if they don't want to. That wasn't Bryce bashing it was just truth that hurts. There is a big difference.
