The point is they are both liabilities against the run and also aren't dominant pass rushers.

I like Burns he's ok but he has a long way to go to be a Lamar Lathon or Kevin Greene. 

Salt n Pepper was dominant and that should be the expectation of our pass rush. 

If you are expecting him to live up to those guys in year 3, well prepare to be disappointed.

They are both way to small.

I'd rather have Julius Peppers and J.J. Watt.

Yes you want your 5's ideally to be 275 plus and run 4.68 or less with a 5yd split of .5 to .6 seconds.

Although Peppers underperformed imo.

#4 on the all-time sack list "underperformed". Wow. Gotta love it.

With his physical gifts he should have made us forget Deacon Jones and Bruce Smith were ever born.

Peppers also didn't have a mean streak. 

He could have been so much more.

I'm not gonna rail on the guy #4 on the all-time sack list when we have a long, long list of guys with talent who busted or flamed out early because they didn't put in the work. I mean, if you want to go after someone on that DL I'd suggest Kris Jenkins.

I'm not railing on him he's still my 3rd favorite rusher. 

I'm just saying he could've been the greatest to ever live.

      It's going to take time to really evaluate new ownership. I still have some hopes that they can get us past the curse of the Jordan years. We got screwed over by the league with the lottery yet again, nothing in this draft was ever going to make people happy after that happened.

      The Hornets were screwed when they lost out on the #1 pick. Outside of Cooper Flagg this was a terrible draft class full of risky prospects and red flags. Kon Knueppel likely won't ever be a superstar - or even a star, realistically - but he can be a solid contributor for a long time in the league. That's actually more than I think will end up being the case for many of these players.

      LOL Even the Mocks hate the Hornets

      I guess we should disregard what all these places say about our draft? And just trust you guys on this board? And as far as the Mark Williams trade, most places are saying we got the much better end of that trade for what its worth to yall. Bleacher report has Kon a "B", BR has him C+, Fansided A-, NBC Sports overall draft an A-, Sports Illustrated overall A-, MSN has Kon a B+, Yahoo Sports has us at an A- overall. Here is what ESPN posted:  Post-Draft Analysis Knueppel's well-rounded perimeter game and terrific 3-point shooting ultimately won out in Charlotte's decision process, with the Hornets attracted to his fit with their current roster and his long-term potential. He should help stabilize their perimeter minutes immediately, with his dependability all season at Duke a major selling point. The Hornets were thought to be exploring moves here, but were content to simply grab their guy and move forward. This is a strong match that should pay off right away for both sides. -- Jeremy Woo
