If anyone has to go it would and should be Burns. We can generate a pass rush by committee and bring in specialists. Can’t replace the best RB in the league and the best safety we’ve had in years.

If we land him the defense regresses further that's a given IMO.... Getting an oline to utilize all those weapons... how?

I don’t know how these things are certain.   Guys like Brown? Chinn? Will just get better.      Shouldn’t be hard for us to improve at LB over what we had last year IMO.   We still will have draft picks, players improving and rentals.

He's been spot on many things in the past, insider source, including but not limited to Irvin to the Seahawks at 16 when general consensus was that he was a low 2nd high third prospect.

 

*Little is trash*

Yeah that’s what I told him and he kept saying oh no he will go in first round and be really good. I told him he would be wrong on both so yeah I really don’t think he knows. If y’all want to believe some nobody that’s fine.

Didn’t you know that if you don’t hit on 100% of your info, you’re a fraud? 

Little was a scouting error that many pros do more often than not. But apparently we have many here that just never got the chance to showcase their scouting chops.

I remember, the Panthers didn't expect Burns to drop to them, In his infinite wisdom we all know Hurndog would have taken Little in round one and prove Verge right.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
