A 3rd round pick for Burns is lunacy. Get off the drugs.  

Please elaborate. What makes Brian Burns so special? He wasn't even our best pass rusher last year. We signed a random FA to a 1 year deal and he was able to out play him. I think you guys over value the players we have because you are a Panthers Homer and that's fine but I'd like to see this team win more than 5 games in a season eventually

What does shelling out big $$ for Burns do for us really? Because that's what's going to happen if we don't move him. Sure we could let him walk in hopes to get a comp pick but by the time he's a FA our new HC will be making moves and signing players of his own. Too much of a gamble. Burns is not worth what he's going to demand on the open market. Better get what we can for him now

Just for the sake of argument.  Say we trade Burns and get 2 first rounders. DJ probably we get a 2nd and Chinn a 2nd.  Shaq if we are lucky a 3rd.

So, we go into the draft with 3 first, 4 second and 2 third round picks.  If we are fortunate enough to hit on all 9 of these picks 2/3 of them will have the two to three year growing pains.   You set yourself back a minimum of 2 years.

Brown is a classic example.  He was a stud coming out of college but took a couple years to finally start reaping the benefits of his skill. Makes no sense at all. 

Horn, Burns, Brown, Chinn are the core defensive players we must keep.

DJ, Icky, Christensen and Moton are our core offensive players that we must keep.   

You build around these guys with players like Mays and McCall just to name a few.

Gutting the whole team is the dumbest thing you can do.

      And those targets are mostly going to TMac, who will be a part of the FUTURE of the team. Did it remove the most reliable WR and Bryce's safety blanket? Absolutely. But it's also allowing him to build better chemistry with TMac, Stephens, Horn, Evans, etc. I am pumped to see Coker back and hopefully they can reignite that connection.

      It's the same thing that made Bryce the #1 overall pick. I've never seen such mass delusion about a football player before. Everyone convinced themselves that the fact that Bryce was below to severely below average in practically every physical attribute for an NFL QB just wouldn't matter because he has everything else you need and that'll more than make up for it. When has such an argument ever been made for an NFL prospect before? We watch prospects plummet every year because they run a couple tenths slower in the 40 time than expected. Smitty had everything you want in a receiver except he was 5'9" so he goes in the 3rd round. That's the way these things generally go. If you check a lot of boxes but leave some key ones unchecked you're not an elite prospect. With Bryce though, the physically limitations were always obvious so it gave more time to be able to build that into the equation and come up with reasons for why he'd be able to overcome it. Now we have all these same shortcomings having shone brightly on the NFL field and we STILL have people trying to convince themselves he'll be able to overcome it while ignoring that our past two wins and his improved play have come while riding the back of RB putting up GOAT RB production over the past two weeks. What changed wasn't Bryce. What changed is that Rico is playing out of his damn mind. Pretty much every NFL roster caliber QB can shine if he can get 200+ yards out of the RB behind him.
