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.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
