To be honest, it makes a lot of sense.  We don't really have the room for him and he's going to want quite a contract.  It puts us in position to trade him to a place that can instantly sign him long term.  

Top pass rushers garner a lot of value---what do you feel would be the destination and comp?

Me:

Baltimore for a minimum 2023 1st, 4th, 2024 2nd

Well, this would be really dumb. Which means it's something the Panthers are highly likely to do.

It almost needs to happen or he can just refuse a re-sign and go elsewhere.  We aren't going to be able to offer what other clubs can. And it hinges on him wanting to come back and negotiate an extension.  

And his new contract with us would hinder the cap an incredible amount.  It's a tough spot.  Is he worth a superstar contract to make things even tighter? Or should we get max value?

So this guy is a notrious BSer, check his previous tweets. He has no sources, he just spews poo and sees what sticks.

That said I can see us trading Burns because DEs are expensive. I wouldn't agree with it but I can see it.

Yep, I didn't realize this dude was a bad track record.  Certaintly gets a discussion started though haha

I'd love him to stay by all means, but I could see why we would get what we can for him right now.

Unless he's made it clear that he doesn't want to be here. Might as well get something for him.  

Exactly.  We didn't negotiate a new contract last year, just picked up his 5th year, and there's been no news on a new one.  I'd prefer not to ride him out and then have a Peppers situation again.

ultimately and ideally you’d like the next coach to decide what to do with Burns. the next best thing is to offer said coach draft picks at the least. Not sure if a huge contract is doable in trying to rebuild - rebuilding the right way takes a lot of capital

worst thing is he walks and we get nothing which is the Panther way

its really unfortunate they paid Anderson and Thomas

more stupid financial moves holding the team back what’s new

Trading Brian Burns would be the stupidest move we could make…he is clearly our best defender by a large margin

Well some of it could relate more to what 89 talked about.  He said 2 weeks ago is when he would have demanded out of Charlotte. 

so we likely have guys that want no part of a long rebuild.  There window is now.

And who more convenient to ask than the young, versatile, sack specialist 1st rounder with his contract at an end.  The facts alone are probably why this dolt made the tweet. 

If there is anyone that has an out, in their control, for wherever they want, it's Burns.  We can control that destiny and get value for it up to the trade deadline.

If Jamal Adams as a safety can get 2 firsts a 3rd and a player why can’t Burns get the same?

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
