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. 

 

I think that was more specific to the WR he was talking to (likely DJ Moore) based on the state of the offense. I don’t think he meant every player should be demanding a trade.

man yall listen to any dude on twitter and take as law. yall have got to do better. Once again Fitt and Wilks are playing for their jobs they dont have to worry about next season because they may not be here. They are trying to win and you dont do that by trading your best players. All these reports should be taken with alot of salt.

Feel free to post a legitimate article that has Brian Burns saying he wants out of Carolina.  All this ridiculous talk based on some twitter moron 

I retracted in the 3rd post after finding out about this guy & asked a mod to consider closure.  All good.

I didn’t that comment as a reference to anyone specific though.  I think 89 was simply saying that teams that find themselves where we are at…..are going to have players ask out.  He would have.

Unless someone is offering at least 2 firsts for him, you don't even answer the phone, this one is easier than CMC.

Best case scenario, we find a way to sign him to a long term deal in the offseason and keep a potential yearly all pro candidate.

Worst case scenario, we can't work out a contract with him in the offseason due to the cap, so we tag him and trade him then for a haul.

This isn't CMC where he could get hurt again and nobody would want him in the offseason.  Burns has already shown elite potential, has no real injury history, and isn't even into his prime years yet, if he were to go on the IR today and not play another snap this year he would still have significant trade value this offseason.

Trading him now doesn't make any sense unless you get a massive return as we can't lose him for nothing as he'd be our franchise tag.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • 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
