If Burns is traded, it’ll be part of a package to move up for a QB, and only then if it’s the only way the deal will be sealed. He’s too important and good to just trade for picks, as they’ve already shown. 

This. Fitts turned down the best picks package we were gonna get for him. If he's moved at this point it's to go get a QB.

I like Burns but sometimes I wonder because  he gets missing. Look at Reddick, he  seems to always be hitting home. Barno showed potential  that last game but I wonder what the new DC thinks. Denver lost Von Miller and traded Chubb and still found a way to get home. I wonder are they thinking about every scenario. If Scott says in on Every deal .... and we traded McCaffrey, then anything is possible.  They may think they can get someone like Yannick for half the price.

Burns is 11th in sacks and 13th in forced fumbles. He’s only 24 years old and anyone who has more sacks than him is also older. 
 

Once we turned down the rams offer (reportedly 2 first and a 2nd), we made the conscious decision that he’s not going anywhere.

He’s more valuable than given credit for and and has played 62 out of 63 possible games.

he is a total liability in the run game and never takes over a game like an elite pass rusher should

While we’re on the subject, D.J Moore is underrated as well. He’s also 11th in receiving yards since joining the league and 6th among all non running backs in yard from scrimmage in that time. 

He’s never missed a game and is also younger than anyone ahead of him on the receiving yards or yards from scrimmage (non running backs) list since he joined the league.

Burns (24), Moore (25), Icky(22)Horn (23),Brown (25). Are our top 5 core players that can be around and productive for us several seasons to come. Granted they are our last 5 first rounders. McCaffey rounded out are last 6 1st rounders.

They are perhaps the best 5 first rounders we have drafted consecutively since 02-06

(Peppers,Gross, Gamble, Thomas Davis and Deangelo Williams).

I really hope Burns gets traded so I can hear 95% whine and complain when we have literally ZERO pass rush and he balls out with another end across from him. Ppl around here act like it's so easy to find pass rushers in the NFL, it's not Madden huddlers yeesh

I think Burns is a great young edge rusher, especially with our new DC and possibly a 3-4 defense. However if we can use him to land a potential franchise QB right before he is owed a bunch of money, it might be worth it. Use the money we save to sign a vet pass rusher like Reddick or Ngakoue so our pass rush isn’t complete poo and we might be ok.

    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.  
    • Considering our depth. Certainly kick the tires.
    • I am not so sure about that. I don't know that he is so soley offensively focused as winning focused. But, not really in a productive way. I get the impression he wants to be like Robert Kraft and take credit for "taking a risk on Bill Belichick" and being successful.  His track record indicates that in the NFL and in his business life.
