I mean, you guys will say anything, cherry pick stats, make crap up for probably the best player on the team you supposedly root for. Got to say. It's a weird way to show support.

Bro needed to change to “0” to match the stat line he puts up in a quarter of his games.

Burns is closer to elite than he is to good. That's not opinion, it's backed by fact (and market value).

Elite POTENTIAL as a one trick pony speed rusher. Hasn’t shown to be elite yet. Will never be an elite complete edge.

I wish Burns would spend all this energy on stopping the run 

This a one trick pony

We could have traded Burns to Chi and kept Moore, who was already under a bargain long term contract.  But nope - now we gotta trade Burns for a WR who we will pay 25M per year.  Fitt is legit on the hot seat now.

Hindsight is 20/20, but even in hindsight. fug no. I think we felt we’d get the Burns deal done. He’s forgetting he’s never had over 12.5 sacks in a season and he’s a complete liability in the run game. Still he’s more valuable that a WR who isnt a difference maker.

I mean, if the primary focus is and should be about growing your #1 overall QB.....I'd rather have Moore.  

What the most important thing in Carolina right now? How many wins you squeak out or how good you can get Bryce Young going? 

You weren’t getting Bryce without giving up another player or another first. I’d like the first over a “good” receiver. I’m not hating on DJ Moore, but he never had that thing that the elite WR have.

DJ Moore was not a game breaker. Full stop. DJ Moore broke one game and then got a penalty and lost us the game. Good player, but I can’t believe some of y’all are suggested we should’ve traded Burns instead of Moore. Ewwww.

Can’t play a football to save his life. Gets in great position up to the catch point. It’s like he’s paralyzed once the ball is in flight

Why?

Sure he had a few sacks and a handful of pressures, but with 120+ tackles, he's clearly an off ball LB, not a pass rushing one.  We don't need any more of those right now, we already have Shaq and Luvu as starters with Deion and Kamu as backups, not to mention Chinn who will likely play some ILB at times this year too.

Just because a solid player gets cut doesn't mean we need to try and sign them if they aren't a fit with our needs.

If we're signing any cut players, it needs to be a pass rusher, CB, WR, or backup OL, not positions we already have some quality depth.

Kamu tackled like a bullfighter in pre season. Yep bullfighters don’t tackle.

89. Bottom line.

DJ Johnson with the pressure. Look at that 

He has a ton of effort. But running into the chest of an offensive tackle does not a pass rush make.

You know neither guy you listed is a RB or TE right? 

No fuging poo. Keep up.

I’ve got to think we can grab a RB or TE off the waiver wire better than the guys we have. I’ve got to think we can get someone better than Jammie Robinson and DJ Johnson out of a Home Depot parking lot as well. 

Wasn’t there a motherfuger hyping his performance over Chinn’s on this board like last week? Draft crush simps are something else.

Hunt kicked some girl in the ass, big whoop. She was a rando, she wasn’t his girlfriend or family member. Random street hoe. She bucked up, wanted to get physical, she hit him in the face and got kicked in the ass.

y’all still talking about this guys character and pearl clutching.

Y’all some negatives. We have a good team with good depth outside of Corner Depth and TE depth. OL is going to be good, best we’ve had in pretty much forever. WR overall talent level is the best since Moose, Steve, and Ricky. We don’t have a Kuechly and Davis, but Shaq will always be serviceable and Frankie is a dawg. Top tier TE talent is down as a whole across the league. Hurst is average.

The Panthers went to the Super Bowl starting Mike Remmers, Michael Oher, Philly Brown, and Ted Ginn Jr. Let’s not act like that was a super team.

Nice pissing contest here. The dude is old as fug and the dude only played linebacker for a year in college. He’s an unknown. 
 

Just like the majority or the other guys drafted in the 3rd, 4th, etc. some work  out and some don’t. I’ll slap a motherfuger that says we should’ve picked Darnell Washington tho. He’s a bitch, with bad knees confirmed. Future XFL backup left tackle, unconfirmed

Don't forget Kobe Jones who might be showing the most so far. Recent article from the team doesn't mention Leota as part of the mix.

Only concern with Kobe is his rap sheet. Guys rarely figure it out after being outcasted by that many teams. 

That OLB competition got to be fierce. Houston coming in…YGM, Leota, and Barno going to be a dogfight

I’d say we pick someone off the wire for depth there at final cuts. Confident in the 2 deep at end with Anderson and Williams

Nobody anywhere in this thread said they didn’t want him. They simply explained why it was unrealistic we could have retained him. Stop with the dramatics. 

I’ll say it. You can’t bookend a defense with Reddick and Burns. Both of those guys get washed out too easy. You can never have enough good pass rushers, but you have to be able to stop the run. We could not consistently set the edge and maintain gap integrity with those two playing at the same time, it failed.

Just asking. I know he’s a project but there have to be some flashes in camp to show potential. Anything?

Your Washington clip was an extended draft crush moment. It’s over bro he ain’t coming. He’s also got degenerative knees and a poo attitude. Last guy out of UGA with Degenerative knee tissue just retired this week after 5 years of meh

Meanwhile this guy was still available. 
 

 

Washington wasn’t…and still ain’t poo.

Anybody heard anything positive out of DJ Johnson in camp?

IMHO Bills IMHO

I remember people complaining about Reddick's run defense too. Now they wish we had kept him.

We need situational pass rush help still if possible. Evero will have different packages. There will inevitably be an adjustment period either way with the switch to 3-4 we should be prepared for that anyway.

I don’t wish we had kept him. You can’t bookend a defensive front 7 with Burns and Reddick. Didn’t work, won’t work, can’t work. He was going to get starter money…you only have so much money.
