Haven't we learned our lesson with Florida State prospects and in particular the FL. St. DE position that historically has not translated to the NFL? Why is this guy different?

 

I just looked at the list of DE's that came out FSU .... smdh

If he is the pick hopefully it's the start of a new trend

If you honestly can't separate someone from past players from that school, you should really sit out the whole pre-draft process. 

Burns would be a stellar addition to this defense. He had 10 sacks this year on a bad team. Watch some film and read some stats before you go comparing this guy to little Everette Brown.

Don't let the benefit of hindsight change your opinion of Brown as a prospect. He had 13.5 sacks his final season at FSU and was considered a 1st rounder by a lot of the talking heads.

Burns is probably the 2nd best DE in the draft the second coming of von Miller dudes agility and movement are elite if he is there and GB don’t pick him you run to the podium if he is gone you flip a coin should have top pick of wr, TE and safety

He is gonna be really good, double digit sack good and we need that.  We will be pretty lucky to get him if that happens.

After a bazillion mock drafts here are the guys that make it to us.  Gary, Oliver, Burns, Ferrell and Wilkins on the defensive side of the ball.  And since Ferrell doesn’t really fit a Hybrid/3-4 I think Burns is our only hope of a pass rusher in rd 1.  As always the draft could go a completely different direction.

    • You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with. 
    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
