Juston Burris is going to the Panthers

Burris, 26, is a former fourth-round pick of the Jets back in 2016 out of NC State. He was in the third year of his four-year, $2.89 million contract when the Jets waived in October of 2018. 

The Jets re-signed Burris to their practice squad after he cleared waivers but was signed by the Browns off their taxi squad after a week. Cleveland elected to decline to tender a qualifying offer to Burris last year, but later re-signed him to a one-year, $645,000 deal.

In 2019, Burris appeared in 14 games for the Browns and recorded 32 tackles, one sack, two interceptions, a forced fumble and seven pass defenses.

At least we can all admit we’ve never heard of these guys. If you’ve never heard of them, hard to have a strong opinion them. 

Id also like to add, these deals are not being made without the endorsement of the head coach we just signed to 7 years and 62.5 million plus his Baylor buyout cost.

That being said I can’t say these are good or bad signings because I don’t know the players nor do I know the plan for them. 

Just wanted to be a voice of reason before we see 15 pages of blind rage towards Hurney and players they know nothing about.

Doesn't look like a retool FA so far. I will give them some time though still early in the FA process. I wasn't expecting big names to begin with, but I also wasn't expecting no names. I never heard of any of these two players and we are giving them decent money.lol

Why are we giving these guys so much money? Like just give him 2 and Weatherly 4. The Vikings beat writer was surprised we gave him that much and 4 million for a guy Ive never heard of.....

Hurney is going to screw our comp picks paying big money for backup level players.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
