Burris might not be great, but I'm not sure I like the idea of rolling with what's behind him.

Won't claim to have looked, but from what I understand his contract isn't all that expensive. 

4.8M, 6th highest on the team.  Only 1M in deadcap if we cut.

I'm not there tho.  It looks like a big drop off.

Conspiracy theory time!:

Pride is a beast of an athlete that does not play with his back to the LOS well---he is a soft cushion CB--I just think he will end up at S eventually.  I have not heard this anywhere, and a DB expert may call my comments preposterous or imbecilic, but gosh darn, I want to see some creativity at these need positions.  Pride is a special teamer who will not see the field behind Horn, Jackson, Bouye, Melvin, and Taylor. Why the heck not?

coach is not going to tolerate failure...like him more every day

we are in a world of hurt at LB

Next season's needs list

  • Left Tackle (maybe)
  • Middle Linebacker (how about one that takes shots)
  • Free Safety  (or a moderately-priced one)
  • Quarterback (even if Darnold is great, what is up with Grier?)

I'd say left tackle is always a need until we can go into training camp knowing who is starting without question.  My gut says, if that isn't Moton, then we don't have that guy yet.

Yeah it seems he can stick with guys pretty well, just not comfortable turning his head around when they call for the ball. Safety would work if he can hit, not sure we've seen that side of his game

If we cut Burris, Thomas and Jansen how much money does that save us for this year? I would think if a good safety becomes available Burris could possibly get cut.

Burris might not be great, but I'm not sure I like the idea of rolling with what's behind him.

Won't claim to have looked, but from what I understand his contract isn't all that expensive.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
