Trading Burns would be stupid.  He is like 24 and just starting to find his groove.  he will be a stud for the next decade.

He might spend much of that decade as a stud for someone else too.

Same old story--some really good defensive player is a "keep at all costs" player, who then re-sogns and has Huddlers packing his bags almost immediately thereafter. Too often, Huddle says, "we can't make _______ move cause we have to pay __, ___, _____, and ______. Then they all get paid and before the ink is dry on their extensions, they can't be pushed out the door fast enough. See Johnson, Charles; Short, Kawann; Gamble; Chris; Davis, Thomas; Beason, Jon; and other big name defensive players not named Keuchly.

Trading him now just speeds up the cycle of the inevitable wanting him out of town and drafting his replacement over everlasting offensive needs.

No future first from the rams thanks and the eagles already got Quinn so Burns is likely staying put unless a mystery team wants to offer 2 firsts 🤷‍♂️

Seattle are leading their division have 2 firsts this year and love trading for proven players. They could be a Smokey to try and get Burns

If you can get 2 firsts for Burns you do it.  No brainer.  Charlotte/Panthers offer nothing for him to WANT to stay.  So you either over pay / franchise him or watch him walk away for no compensation.  If we really turned down 2 first (even if it's 24/25), then we are dumb.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
