We don't know that.  This could be his prime.  This could be his peak. 

I'd argue every Panther great DE entered their prime about year 4/5.   Some just maintained longer.  Like Peppers.  Peppers.  Rucker.  Big Money.  

Where they 24 like Burns is or are you just impatient?

No we haven't seen his prime yet .. he'll be only 25 the entirety of 2023 season .. you don't trade freak DE's

again, we don't know that.    You can't predict when a player peaks out. 

But all the great Panther DEs to date, reached their playing peaks about year 4/5.   They didn't get more productive after that.  That could be Burns.  It could not. 

Burns isn't a freak DE.  Peppers was a freak DE.  And there is big difference between the two.  You can pay Burns a lot of money.  It won't make him a Peppers caliber freak though.

I respectively disagree with Verge.

That's is their value if you need to cash the assets right now.  But they are an investment.  They will appreciate over time.  And right now we have a little time as this is a lost season. 

That's just not how grading assets in the NFL works. Not when one bad season can get your butt fired as a coach or GM Outside of a small handful of truly entrenched guys.

And how are draft picks going to "appreciate"? 😂 We aren't talking about stocks or bonds here.

Scott Fitterer isn't trading one of if not his absolute best roster asset for picks he might never get to make. Nor should he.

Burns combine shows he's an elite athlete and he's gotten better (and bigger) every year he's been in the league. He also came into the league at only 230, he's put on weight since and will continue to do so. You're just being cynical

Yall know extending Burns isn't coming out of your paychecks right?

It's the same people who whined about paying a QB but were perfectly fine sinking the salary cap in a running back. You can't reason with it.

The guy who wants to trade our team captain, star player at a valuable positions wanted us to keep the star RB who hasn't played in years and was the biggest cap hit on the team. 

Yeah, I'm justified for calling that an f150

I don't think it is cynical to say he isn't a Julius Peppers freak DE.   He isn't. 

Jon Beason was a damn good LB.  He wasn't on the same planet as Luke Kuechly. 

DJ Moore is a great WR.  He isn't in the conversation with an 89.

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
