Burns is probably going to be traded right?

Things get messy for obvious reasons with a tag and trade, so generally that’s probably not going to happen. 

Isn’t he eligible for a 5th year option? And that’s in 2024, meaning there is still plenty of time.

CMC made sense from all angles but the only one it makes for Burns is if he is wanting out and demanding a trade. Which is possible.

Otherwise the smart move is to simply let the new regimen make that call and still have time to trade him if needed unless I am missing something.

He’s on his fifth year option this season so if we don’t get an extension or trade done by the deadline, the only leverage we have is a tag.

It was picked up this year, but doesn’t it run through next season?

Oh jimmers mccricket sauce, he’s only on his 4th year. I was mistaken

Yea so, the new HC will be here soon enough, let him make the call imo. You’re risking injury and whatever trade is on the table now of course but that’s really it. I think the biggest risk is the new HC wanting to have him and not attracting said HC by trading him away.

You also could argue this is when Burns as his highest value vs waiting a year when what you can get for him plummets exponentially.

I thought about that. But I see and would bet Burns getting better or at least keeping on par for the rest of the season, especially with Brown now stepping it up.

This would mean (easily) coming off a double digit sack season, so I don’t see his value plummeting.

Plus what the new HC wants really should be priority. While I love the idea of stacking picks, key pieces are still needed and a bonus to attract candidates.

I guess these last few years has me pessimistic but I’d love to believe you are right.

    • Okay then, tell me what your expectations are for Thielen, XL, and Coker this year If someone wants to come out there and say they think Thielen is only getting 600-700 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to then expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. If someone wants to say they think XL or Coker is going to fall back to 300 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. People seem to think I'm making excuses for why T-Mac can't get there, but it's the literal opposite, my expectations for him stem from my belief our other WRs for the first time in who knows how long.   We finally have a legitimate and full WR room, not sure that's happened since the Smitty and Moose days.  It's going to make them all better players, but it will also suppress all of their stats as they're all going to cannibalize each other a little bit.    
    • It’s certainly not my shining moment. But I still made it. Running the Sacramento marathon in December and hope to have a more Jake Delhomme-level of stardom there. The Everyman that overcomes obstacles to almost reach the pinnacle of success only to have it taken away by Adam Vinateri.
