Chinn AND Burns is honestly a deal breaker for me given the pick haul. One or the other should be the line in the sand.

You don't pass on a franchise QB for either of those dudes. Or both. This is silly. They aren't Aaron Donald or prime Von Miller.

Oh c'mon, in for a penny in for a pound. You might as well accept it this is going to happen.  

Heres what you tell your girl so learn it as a fan. Relax baby and let it ease in, it only hurts for a little while.  You will learn to love it. 

I find this entire fiasco is absolutely hilarious myself.

Even Aaron Donald isn't Aaron Donald to some on here. Someone last night said he was the 2nd best defensive player ever. Like huh?

It's not just those two dudes. It's a LOT more. You can't trade three 1sts and possibly more draft assets plus your two best young defenders. At some point the cost becomes too much to bear.

Somebody lied to him lol

Yeah, I have a feeling they did as well.  For the Texans guy (McClain) to retweet the deal with Burns and Chinn, and thats pretty much what we've been hearing for over a year, I'll be surprised if that's not the deal.

I expect the following dominos to fall once the trade happens:

Land DW
Sign Terron Armstead
Sign Cam Newton to a one year deal
Sign Aj Klein, jack or littleton
Bring back Dante Jackson/Gilmore

*Donte* but all those moves would make total sense

So best case scenario we're essentially giving up FIVE first round picks for one player who we'll be paying more than 15% of the cap to sooner or later, with a worse roster than the one that just won 5 games in back to back seasons?  Tell me how that's not killing the franchise

      Clowney on Bryce Young

      By electro's horse · Posted

      i love people with no medical experience making tenuous assumptions based on, uh, the fact his dad sucked in every practical lab in med school and had to go into psychiatry its fun to think of what these same fans would be saying with any other profession "well his dad was a cardiologist so obviously he knows how to stay calm." "well his dad was a neurologist so oviously he keeps his brain waves at a low level and isn't at risk of seizure, which is good (obviously)." "well his dad is a surgeon so he knows how to overcome his lack of confidence over height." "well his dad was a pediatrician so that's why he looks like a child, but kids don't get injured easily and have limitless potential so-"

      CMC makes the cover of Madden

      Oh it’s made the decision easier knowing we were years away from competing. He just obviously didn’t think it was some sort of clown show as he took a job with that staff and still hangs around to help. Injuries were the major concern. Willis retired “early” as well, plus there was another very young LB in SF that did. Positions that take a lot of impact are starting to not push themselves too late in their careers to protect their long term health.

      Obviously his health was the reason but the state of the team definitely helped. Luke doesn't strike me as someone who cares about individual accomplishments much at all. He loved the game and he wanted to win with the Panthers.  He wouldn't risk his life to go chase a ring elsewhere. It was difficult for him to step away from a team that was bad, if the Panthers were serious contenders I really think he would have tried to see it through.  Everything worked out the way that it was meant to in the end. It was sad seeing his career cut short but if he had a suffered a serious injury from football I can't even imagine. EDIT: To be clear I don't think the medical staff was part of his decision at all. It just helped that the team was far from winning a SB when he bowed out.
