Interesting that Wonnum was doubled more than Burns.

Hell, half of Burns' sacks came against TEs. Mainly because OCs spent half the game single blocking him with a TE and getting away with it.

So why waste another pick when you can just roll with Bryce and make that decision in 2025 and use the capital saved to address other needs?

It would just be more poor asset management throwing more draft picks at QBs when the team as a whole was a dumpster fire last season.

Give Bryce another shot and see what we actually have.

We know what we have - a non-NFL QB under C.

I told people he would be cheap. We didn't bring him in because they know he would beat Bryce for the starting job.

Our QB Coach would have beaten Young out in a fair competition last year and he's 44.

I agree it needs to be addressed, but ngl, I really like Tremble.  He's just been underutilized and stuck in dysfunctional offenses his entire career.  When he gets the ball in his hands, he makes plays, period.  Even with him more featured, we still need help there though.

Day drinking on the weekend. Fair play.

2 years in a row,he really wants to be a Panther

I think he just really wants to continue getting paid.

$3m is more than $0.

He was a good MLB and probably had the talent to be very good if healthy, but you're right he wasn't elite 

He won the Dick Butkus, Bronko Nagurski and Chuck Bednarik Awards in 2000 - he was literally the best defensive player in College. 

Saying he wasn't as good as Kuechly is a ridiculously high bar. Kuechly wasn't elite, he was first ballot HoF standard.

Morgan was an excellent player and talent, he just sadly couldn't stay healthy in the NFL.

None of them after 1 season. Astute observation otherwise.

1 historically bad season.

Those teams didn’t mortgage their futures 

The Broncos definitely did and the Falcons have just backed up a Brinks truck for a 36 year old coming off a torn achilles tendon. 

Broncos, Steelers, Falcons, Washington, Patriots - all decisively moving on from QBs who they deemed not good enough.

The Panthers - let's run it back with Young, he needs more time.

And that's why we suck.

Any QBs visiting?

I'm curious how he's that damn skinny still being in the league for a few years already 

Ask Burns.

With a name like that he simply had to play for LSU.

Hard to figure out what Jim Harbaugh is doing

Overnight that offense went from 

QB- Herbert

RB - Ekeler

WR - Allen

WR - WIlliams

TE - Everett

to.......Herbert

Offer them Young and our 2nd round pick.

These salaries are getting absolutely insane. At some point, the NFL salary model (resetting the market each year) will be unsustainable. The League as a whole can’t reset the market every year for nearly every position just because there is roughly 10% more money to spend. 

The NFL is making money hand over fist - it'll be a long time until the salary model is unsustainable.

And that might make him our best WR--I can't imagine how easy it was to game plan against us.  I would flood A gaps. cover the TE with a LB if necessary, and let Adam Thielen get his 75 yards.

 

Why are you wasting a LB in coverage? We don't have any TEs. Blitz that guy!

I wish him nothing but the best. We squandered him.

I'd agree, but even Evero couldn't get a tune out of him.

I would LOVE to have Tee Higgins - but trading those 2 picks is the wrong choice.  I don't see Tee on our radar any longer....we have nothing to offer without Burns.

Those two high 2nd round picks give you a chance to start the rebuild after a disastrous few years. 

They shouldn't be traded for anything short of Patrick Mahomes.

I’d be willing to give up a lot for Aiyuk but they ain’t trading him

Genuinely, why?

We're not a superstar player away from contention. Especially not at WR - we saw how much good McCaffrey did. 

Build the fuging roster.

5 years, 63M guaranteed with 26 in a signing bonus means the contract is a lot more cap friendly than it initially appears. plenty of flexibility. the splashy 100M number is good for his agent to show to prospective clients. the cap number for the Panthers should be a lot easier to swallow.

The $63m guaranteed is the splashy number he can show to his prospective clients - that's more than Mayfield got.

we had to do this. 

No we didn't.

Fair play to his agent, he's done exactly what I said people would do "beat everyone else's offer by 20% and I'll entertain my client playing for your dumpster fire franchise". 

Start the firesale in Charlotte.

We are nowhere near competing, but your plan is to not sign good FA's and keep depending on the draft to develop talent.

 

Did you see the draft we just had not a single good player came from that draft. Bryce the noodle arm midget and Mango ready to Tango was nowhere to be found.

 

Cmon man this goes both ways. You have to sign good FA's and draft well. The two goes hand and hand.

 

Cmon old man times has changed. You gotta spend big if you want a better product.

I'm not an old man, Oldham is a place.

If Morgan can't draft then he needs to be fired immediately. It's the only way to properly build a contender. 

Why would we make this trade?

We're nowhere near competing and in no position to hand out a mega contract to a WR.

Trade Burns for picks and rebuild properly. It's really not that hard.

His agent isn't doing his job if he re-signs with this dumpster fire.
