Wrong thread.

No idea about the source but I'm sceptical. I feel like you'd be hearing about it from other places if something like this was in the works.

This would be dumb. You shouldn't experiment at center.

He was projected to get $15m/$16m. Seems like a bit of an overpay but I guess that's where we are.

Ill wait until the finished product is unviled before I bitch but I am not following what morgan is doing the past few days starting with Hurst
Could be opening up room in 2025 because most deals signed in FA this year will have smaller cap hits for 2024 and bigger in the following seasons.
-
These cuts we've been making have opened up a nice chunk of cap for 2025 but not that much for 2024.

Nobody is trading for Burns without a long-term contract agreed on.
I was thinking that but I guess if the Bengals have tagged Higgins as basically a one year rental and don't intend to extend him they'd maybe think having Burns on a 1 year rental would give them a better chance of winning.
-
I think it would be a straight swap but not sure the Bengals would want him. They're paying Hendrickson a lot the next two seasons.

Hopefully their releasing these players to make it possible to give Frankie Luvu a new contract, and start signing players to fill the holes with players in needed positions!
The players they've released so far have negligible cap savings.

Best chance we've got of getting comp picks in the near future is if Evero becomes a HC. Outside of those potential two 3rds for him we won't be getting any for players leaving.

not sure what that means ^, but if that was your business and your credibility is key to said business would you put something out, even if you were told by a "source" that you knew was 100% factually wrong?
That's my issue. No other reporter has reported this and they probably wouldn't even if they were told it because they know it's disingenuous to suggest the market for Burns is around a 3rd rounder. Her reporting it makes it seem like there's an ulterior motive rather than her just doing her job.

Why does she care so much about this situation?

What would this mean for Bozeman? Do they cut him, keep him as a backup or move him to LG (where he played for the Ravens for two seasons)?

Seattle got a 1st and 2nd for Frank Clark not too long ago and he was given $105m over 5 years. The salary cap has increased by $70m since then as well. That "league source" should put down the crack pipe.

This guy thinks getting $50,000 from cutting Hurst was done to get some more cap room to extend Burns?

How does this affect the cap?

Personally I think it's more likely a team competing to win will offer him a deal we are not prepared to match and a trade gets done for less than two 1sts.

That panthersontap tweet isn't accurate. Off the top of my head I can remember Seahawks trading Frank Clark after putting the non-exclusive tag on him. There's probably lots more.

We need to get past Burns so that we can get deals done with our other free agents
Yes that's the other side to this. Really you want to know what you're doing with Burns before free agency. It would be foolish to tag him not knowing if you're going to trade, extend him or let him play under the tag. Before you know it you get to training camp and have no new pass rusher and Burns holding out
-
Tag and trade looking the most likely scenario at this point. Maybe they liked what they heard from some interested teams at the combine?

BREAKING: Giants looking to trade for Brian Burns
in Carolina Panthers
Posted · Edited by Billy Goat
Having their 39 and 47 to go with our 33 would make the draft a bit more interesting. Lots of talent available at those picks. I'd rather have that than a 1 in 2025.
