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?

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
