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.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.

      I'd really like to keep Mayes. We drafted and developed him.
