REPORT: Burns practically a "lock" to be traded before the deadline

Burns isn't getting moved in the middle of the season with an interim coach. I don't know that he's worth the payday he's going to ask for but if we move him what becomes of the rest of the pass rush? What sparse resources we have going forward will or should be used to continue to build the oline and make this boring offense formidable again. It's easy to say get what you can for him but odds are those fans will be singing a different tune when they see our nonexistent pass rush and jag QB's having all day in the pocket.

I also see Cowboys fans jizzing all over themselves on Twitter demanding that Jerry go get them DJ Moore...  ESPN thsi week has also featured Keyshawn, JWill, and Max diacussing DJ to help their Giants.  As I've said elsewhere, we just fired our coach, our owner appears to be an arrogant, pompous idiot, and national media sees it as our franchise being in complete disarray, so of course, they view us as the NFL's little brother team that they can use to fulfill all of their fantasy trade needs...  fug logic and reasoning, "I wont that player from that team nobody cares about Jerrah!"  

But again, completely forget the fact that DJ just signed a contract extension and it makes NO fuging sense for us to trade him because of the cap hit we would incur.  I don't put any weight into any of these "reports."  These assholes from major markets are pushing this poo for clicks.

Is Burns over rated? His size limits him and he doesn’t get 10 sacks. Would he be better in a 3-4 as an OLB? 
 

he’s probably our most valuable asset and will be wanting a lot of money. Why not trade him when we can probably get a first and another top pick. Possibly 2 first? Or a first and a second or third? Pass rushers are highly valued.

Who cares we are tanking. We are going to need a few years to become a contender. Trade everyone now for maximum value or we can keep everyone on big contracts and stay an average to below average team.

Ones an in the box safety one is a pro bowl DE, I don’t buy that one minute 

Yeah but Jamal was looked at as the Luke Kuchely of SS. Strong locker room guy, elite in the box and was capable in coverage. The Seahawks thought he was the missing piece. The overpay sorta kinda made sense for a team looking to replace Kam.

Brian Burns is really good, but he's gonna want cap instantly so you have to weigh whether or not he's wroth it compared to getting a young talent in the Late first for 4-5 years.

Basically what I'm saying is Jamal was a special, dumb case. It's not gonna happen with Burns

    • I still think it's too soon to say last year's draft was bad. I think those who do are the eternal pessimists. We had 4 players who contributed last season. Two were starters. It's possible all 4 are starters this season. How is that a bad draft? I know it's because our roster was so bad but still, they are on this roster so it's the only one that counts.  Before I say it's a bad draft I prefer to wait and see how they play this season. It's possible we may have FIVE starters from that draft playing the season. Anyone who thinks drafting 5 starters by season two is a bad draft should visit a psychiatrist where they can get a prescription to help them live happier lives.    I'm not saying it was a success yet but I damn sure ain't calling it a failure yet. Most players don't make it. Most of those who do need a little time. One season isn't enough time which is why they are still on the team Leggete, Coker (UDFA but still we got him), Sanders, Smith-Wade and Wallace all showed promise last season. If they all take a step forward then it was a great draft. If only 1 does than it was an average draft. If they regress then and only then will I say it was a bad draft.  Fans often have unreasonable expectations compared to the reality of draft results. I believe this draft will shine as I think it's going to better due to the depth of the class but I also believe we will look back at 2024 and say that was a good class too. I think we have 5 players from that class who will be starters or rotational pieces for the next couple of years at least. That's a win.     
    • Playing devils adovcate here, but if you truly wanted to trade down then it made no sense to be a smoke screen for Walker only.  Especially since Tmac is not a generational type player.  Make it known that he is in play and see if the cowboys or whoever really like him as rumored. 
    • I mean everybody was, there is a difference between wanting them to draft the guy you like and accepting them drafting someone else based off all the intel and rumors. Up until draft night everybody was convinced it was gonna be walker or maybe another defensive player. If you didn't you was just crossing your fingers.
