An elite pass rusher in the hand is worth two in the (future)draft. 

If Fitterer takes this deal, then the tank is in full effect. You don't trade away a player like Burns for future picks if you think you'll be able to compete next season. 

I mean the team is 2-6 starting the 4th string QB and already dumped two high priced players. The tank is already in full effect if you haven’t noticed.

Rejecting two 1st round picks for Burns is going to be one Fitt's dumbest moves. Good grief that is a fantastic deal! Get on it Fitt today!

So you want picks in 2024, and 2025 having no idea where they will be in the draft order for a guy that was a pro-bowler last year, and is ascending as one of the better edge rushers in the league WITH NO ONE else on the DL / EDGE group who has a sack this season at the halfway mark....

People get to caught up over ''having'' picks, you need good players on the roster as well, you don't sell a sub 25 pass rusher like Brian, if anything, we need to add a better compliment to him. YGM, and Haynes, haven't done ANYTHING in the pass rush dept. as it relates to sacks.

Guys we're not on a SB run because we almost beat the Falcons. We have 2 wins. 2. We need future 1st round picks, not an undersized DE.

Not about being on a run, you don't trade our best defensive player for picks 2 and 3 years away, that is foolish and short-sighted. 

If it was a 22', and 23' plus ''sweeteners'' you could consider it, but to trade one of the better young pass rushers for picks 2 and 3 years away is some Madden type non-sense.

They haven't traded away of the set pieces of this team. They traded away a WR that was about to get cut and a RB that can't stay on the field and deserved to go somewhere that won't have to ride the wheels off of him. We don't have to tank. With a QB and a couple FAs we could be competing next season. Right now Fitterer has plenty of draft capital to do just that.

I have some idea where the picks will be. Between 1 and 32.

I don't care about Burns getting sacks. This team is ass and we're going to blow it up and rebuild. Burns is not the difference maker for us winning the SB in the next couple of seasons.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
