we should trade burns while he still has value

Tough seeing the logic. One of our few defensive players with legit talent and ship him off for a mid round pick? So we can get another Rashaan Gaulden or Will Grier? How about tweaking your scheme to maximize his potential? If you're not going to do it for your highest ceiling players, who are you scheming around?

My fear is we don’t use him properly and he doesn’t produce in a 4-3, so we end up moving on to a 4-3 DE and we let him go or we trade him and get nothing for him because he isn’t producing in a 4-3 Defense. I hope I am wrong and he starts getting sacks but I think it’s possible he won’t do well as a 4-3 DE and can only excel as a 3-4 olb.

its not his fault, he was drafted because we decided to become a 3-4 for 5 minutes, but its clear that he's solely a 3-4 guy. he just doesn't fit in a 4-3

No he certainly does not.... He really needs to gain about 15-20 pounds of muscle. I'm surprised he didn't seem to gain much weight this past off season. He was a bit disruptive this game and it made a difference, but his only move is that same speed rush, otherwise he gets manhandled. That being said, I think he can still be a factor, he just needs a little more time.

    • Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.
    • Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.
    • And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
