Nobody is saying hes excellent against the run which PFF clearly accounts for. But that doesnt take away from what we are paying him to do and thats rush the passer. He's clearly a top 10 threat at that positions as a pass rusher so thats why hes getting paid.

Because what you aren't acounting for is the cap goes up every year. the next contract will be bigger than the one before. If there is more money the next pro bowler gonna wanna be paid higher than the guy who last got the deal. Garrett will get a bigger deal if they signed on the same day but it doesnt work that way. Yes it matters where they are drafted because of a variety of factors. Say the year Burns came out that was an extremely good year for pass rusher. you had Bosa, Josh Allen, Farrell, rashawn Gary and then Burns followed by Sweat at 26. That class of pass rushers is very rare some years you might get 2 first round ends. so where your picking matters if your gonna land those type of talents.

At this point hes the face of the defense if not the team. He's young, on his way to a second pro bowl, that Spider-Man thing is highly marketable and hes arguably the heart and soul of the D. He clearly cares and does more good than bad by a good margin to me.

Completely taken over? how many player do that consistently? Garrett and maybe Parson and bosa? Other guys are hit and miss. Yes hes a liability in the run game because your playing him out of position. Hes not a 4-3 end we knoe that. Nobody is overrating him you are underrating him. your value is what teams and your peer think of you. and the rams think hes worth 2 first and a second. That a FACT. not opinion. and Fitts thinks hes worth more than that so whos wrong? you or them.

Those guys are 1 in a generation type players. Garrett went what number. bosa went what 1-2? your not gonna get those guys without giving up a considerable investment. However, we were lucky to snag Burns at 15. he has clearly out played his draft position. Your talking about 3 premium picks that aren't sure to be at 15 which is where u got burns and you dont know who you be getting. Rams didnt give up this years first dont think they have one so u on hold another year to replace Burns. your drafting another pass rusher and hoping hes as good. your worried about paying people but hell who are we paying? we dont have a franchises qb and most our core guys are on rookie deals. at some point u have to pay someone.

Yeah like they had a first round pick to give us this season. Bringing back Stafford and copper Kupp next season pretty much assures they wont be 4-10 the year after this one. your chasing fools gold.

No. Most important position is Quarterback. second most important position is getting to the quarterback. which is why those 2 are the highest paid positions in the league. not paying burns or trading him puts you on the hamster wheel of hoping you draft a guy as good or better than him with 1 of those picks in a year you dont know if there are going to be any good pass rushers. you back at square 1 there and still looking for a qb like we are now. Trading Burns wouldnt have helped as much people like to make it seem. you create another hole before you patch the first one.

amazing how much hate Burns gets around here. and yet Derrick Brown while improved this season is still looking not worth the pick we drafted him at.

Not gonna be a Pro Bowler every game. win some loss some. some guys have a skillset that just counters your own. If this was every week then we would have a problem.

bottom line is hes a great pass rusher or 3-4 OLB. trying to compare him to defensive ends is bit unfair. he is what reddick is... but younger.

Burns sucks....

Brian Burns is mediocre now... sigh the huddle never disappoints in terrible takes. If the Rams offered 2 first and a second for a mediocre player tell them to offer the same for Taylor. Hell I would even give them Gross Matos... toss in middleton we got plenty of those.

can't disagree. Watt has been around much longer and isnt the only pass rusher on that defense.

Leave where i watched the game. He had a very nice tackle for a loss on a reverse and that key pressure that ran Mitch into luvu... Disruption is production. Hes not Myles Garrett or one of those bigger multi dimensional defensive ends but he is a number 1 EDGE. Guy is just 24 and on a Great pace. chillout. Get him some help so he cant be focused on as the only presence.

bless ur own sir. complaining about a guy with 10.5 sacks smh

i will take Mcvays expertise over huddle knee jerk reactions.

he didnt have a sack? oh no..

Guess who that last catch was on tho... Taylor.... so he get abused no matter what.

Pickens is their best really but Johnson is a dog as well.

taylor lmao

i dont want to hear taylor name again

That wasn't his fault. tightends let Hightower just walk in there like hes a pro bowler.

if we dont draft a tightend. sick of these muffin men.

hes gotten pretty aggressive down the field. Ole Sammy ballgame.

get Shenault involved
