Did my research. Totally expected something like this.

A plug and play rookie DE is rare. Burns came to the NFL with a bag of tricks.

I'd rather my DE have the moves but needs to add/maintain weight then have the weight but have to learn the moves....

and then there's this

notice it's not defensive rookie...2nd out of all rookies.

Speaking of this and not to derail too much ...our other rookie is also in the headlines but hopefully tonight he changes the narrative somewhat ...

According to PFF,  Will Grier is the lowest-graded rookie of any QB with at least 50 snaps so far this preseason.... (25.8). I actually didn't know they graded south of 30.

IMO, he just need the reps and more time to build his confidence. Give him a couple of years and some good Oline protection and I think he'll surprise.

This guy is a freak btw.

  No doubt. I usually don’t like trading up but Shazier left such a huge hole in the middle of that DEF, they almost had too. And there wasn’t another ILB anywhere close to as good as him and White.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
