No because you lose your only consistent pass rusher. You can't take a step back on defense if you're bringing in a young QB.

What makes our team better? 

CJ Stroud or Bryce Young playing QB instead of Darnold - or - Brian Burns playing DE instead of Ngakoue?

That’s a very specific scenario. Why would you want it to play out that?

In the scenario being discussed, Burns is sent elsewhere in a trade up for a QB in this year's draft. I'd hope we would only trade him to make that move if it was for Young or Stroud. I think it's the right move and attempt to replace Burns's production with a guy like Ngakoue and draft picks.

Why do people keep thinking we have to trade Burns?  The Panthers would rather give up more picks than give up Burns.

I don't know why this discussion keeps happening.  If the Panthers had any interest in trading Burns, they would have done so last year.  Stop bringing up Burns in trade talks.

It's not that we "have to" trade Burns. I agree with you it seems the Panthers want to keep him. I like him as a player, but I don't think he should get top 5 DE/OLB money - yet. 

My thought is until we find a franchise QB to build around, every 1st round pick attainable carries more value. That might be the pick we land our QB with, or they might be used in a trade to acquire our QB. We're not going anywhere until we get the QB position settled.

It's not just about sacks, realistically Burns should have had even more sacks but he's been really good at pressuring the QB regardless. 

This roster is a QB away from going to the playoffs.  You have to take advantage of a window when it presents itself, instead of trying to worry about future draft picks.   Thee players and the coaching staff won't be around forever.   

The flip side to this that you have to factor in is his horrendous play in the run game.  Maybe switching to a 3 4 helps but I kinda doubt it

This.   Burns could be the reincarnation of peppers and it doesn't matter if we have no qb.  I mean for fug sakes we literally just wasted Burns on his rookie deal chasing a qb

Burns wasn’t horrendous against the run though…. That’s a farce. He still graded out top 20 in the league against the run. 


It’s like we forget those multiple tackles in the backfield on 4th down run plays to cause “turnovers” … he had 3 of those this year… those are just as valuable as a sack fumble turnover.

Who graded him top 20 against the run? I’d love to see the actual parameters if it even exists. 
 

And when did these 4th down “turnovers”occur. He sacked Mariota on a 4th but isn’t listed on any other 4th down play the entire season. I’d like to see those too. If you would tell me what games it would help.

I agree that the "graded top 20 against the run" is a bit vague but hopefully he shows us where is he pulling that from.  Is it top 20 in the nfl, ends etc?  A few more details would be nice because stats be damned my eyes see him getting manhandled against the run one on one more times then not

      Schrader / Jeremiah mock draft experiment

      By strato · Posted

      We have taken two TEs in three seasons I think, and Sanders may not pan out or it may have been a sophomore slump, but we took a guy last year that was coming on.  I am not in favor of TE in round one and really don’t consider it a high priority in any round.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Trevon Moehrig, Turk Wharton, Bobby Brown, Jaelen Phillips, Devin Lloyd, Nic Scourton Giving him 6 starters in 2 offseasons that cost boat loads of money or a 2nd round pick... Not exactly handing the man scraps. The point of the draft is to make the team better. You want to make this about Bryce. It isn't. It's about improving the team. And if anyone can look at our offense and go "we're good", they are lying to themselves. You give quarterbacks weapons. We SCREAMED for YEARS to give Cam some help. But now because we are trying to do it for Bryce, you all are saying we are coddling him because of his "deficiencies". It's a double-standard because you don't like the guy, clearly. But even if he does fail, guess what? The next guy has help too. Win-win.

      we have 2 solid/above average (however you want to phrase that) wr's, which is more than half the league at least.  We dont need to be blowing more first round capital just to placate Bryce and his limitations.   We have one absolute stud (probably top 10 wr) in tmac and we have a high floor guy with insane potential if he can stay healthy.  Yeah man we are in better shape than the bulk of the teams in the league.  If you need to add some speed or whatever, sure draft in the mid rounds or wait until tc cuts.  Its monumentally stupid to spend 3 straight firsts on a wr if thats the route they go.  ITs just more and more excuses for Bryce, thats where we are at now.    "How can bryce succeed without a big possession type wr (drafts 2 for him), how is bryce supposed to exceed without a speed guy......."   Its fuging never ending.  Give EE some goddamn help on defense for once
