Rams Offering Two (Future) Firsts for Burns

The whole “a 1st in two years is worth a 3rd this year” is the absolute dumbest way to value picks ever. I hate it and it’s absolutely illogical. I know teams use this scale but it makes no sense. Cause come 2025 that logic goes completely out the window and suddenly that pick is worth multiple future 1sts.

It's not because the people making trades have their jobs based on if they win or not. 
 

That’s why future picks are valued less. 
 

A GM isn’t valuing a 1st two years from now as high as a 1st this year, because 4 years down the road when the player picked is developed and playing well, it is highly likely a new coach and front office are the ones benefitting from it.

I swear that one win against Tampa gave a lot of the fanbase a false notion that we’re only a player or two away. We need to finally complete the rebuild we’ve been avoiding since Cam’s shoulder went to poo…

One of the worst things to happen to this franchise was winning that Tampa game. The team was literally holding the worst record in the league and would have had the number 1 pick in the draft of the season had ended the week before. They beat a bad Tampa team and this fan base got delusional. 
 

Steve wilks should be the head coach next year. Lol the guy was the DC at Missouri before he came back to Carolina. Not even David Tepper is dumb enough to keep this guy employed as head coach longer than 10 minutes after the final whistle of the season.

brian burns is untouchable and can’t be traded for multiple first round picks. I love burns and would be willing to signing him long term, but people are absolutely delusional if they aren’t willing to part for a guy who has never had more than 9 sacks in a season for multiple firsts and other picks.

pj Walker might be the future. He threw a perfect spiral 70 yards to dj moore. I’m not even going to waste time elaborating on how ridiculous of an opinion that is.

this team could win the division. Not they cannot and even if they did they would have their doors blown off in the playoffs. The panthers would be forced to retain a motivational speaker as a head coach and waste another year proving to the world pj Walker is not the answer.

The team needs to just keep losing and collecting draft picks. Put yourself in the best position possible to draft your next Cam Newton.

What's tempting about this deal is the probability that the Rams may be a dumpster fire by the time those picks hit. They sold out hard to get that SB win, and now they're mortgaging their future to keep that window open if at all possible. Odds are very high that leads to a hard crash in a couple years. 

Tempting.

Very tempting.

That’s why I think it’s better that they are 24 and 25 picks. Good chance those are both top 10 picks.

yeah, that brings up the issues we have with a mixed match front office.  We need a new HC and a new GM.  I think they should be paired.  Everyone should be working on the same thing with the goals.  You want the same timeline on everyone.

But the right way to look at trading a first rounder who is a top DE for potential picks in a few years. 

Now you just have to hope that Burns wants to stay. He hasn't given any indication he doesn't, but Peppers wanted out of Carolina. Carolina has been a train wreck for years and we're starting over again. As great as the money is, these guys want rings too. We don't have a great track record of success. It's not all about what we want.

But in reality there are not any less in value

This thread is both sides saying the same thing over and over. Has anyone changed their stance yet? 😂 

come on bro, you're not new here. 

the appropriate time to change your stance is when enough time is gone by that most forget what your old position was.

    • We've gone from wanting a franchise QB to an "elite" QB. Come on, people. 
    • All the side talk about BY aside I like the attention to small details. Though I find it hard to believe no one on staff and especially Josh McCown the QB coach tried to hone in on these things this time last year.
    • I haven't made any point but that "elite" is very much a matter of definition---it's subjective.  Dak has been good throughout his career, and last season was one of his best. Of course he faltered in the playoffs, but so did several QBs. So if you're going to ding him, you must ding them all, except one. There is only one truly elite QB in the league, and we all know who he is. Dak is a franchise QB. Matt Ryan was one as well. Palmer was as well before he got injured.  You seem to be suggesting that you can only win a chip with an elite QB. I say that you can win one without one. It's a team sport.  The fact is, Dak's career passer rating and career QBR are in the good territory, as a I've stated. If you look at his last season, they were more than good. QBs with lesser ratings than Prescott have led their teams to a chip.   Suggesting that most elite QBs will take a team bereft of a line and weapons to a chip doesn't make sense. It just doesn't. Mahomes and Brady are really the only ones that came close to that, and parts of their teams were elite if not most of their teams. Maybe Burrow can do it, but he's suffered some injuries that have directly affected his play and taken the shine off. You need at least a good team and a good QB. This pretty much shows itself every year.
