Ah yeah, the ol eye test. Stats be dammed, I don't agree with them so I'm right. Facts are for losers right?

Alex Highsmith is better in most of those categories, much better against the run overall, and just got 17M/yr last month. So these facts show what a player with those numbers should get. Why should Burns get more?

1 year of production (7+ sacks) over 3 years as a pro vs 4 years in 4 years , Highsmith is an older player, has way less pressures and qb hits since being drafted compared to Burns in the same time period.

What does top 10 run stuff mean? Because he isn't top ten against the run. He's a liability against the run

He made up those numbers.  The last 4 years, Burns is #11 on the sack list, not 8.  Not to mention he’s played in more games than 7 of the 10 guys in front of him, yet is still trailing them.  His current 5th year option of 16M is good enough for top 10.  In reality, he’s being paid this year about what he’s worth.  Yeah that dude wants Bosa type money lol

ESPN has a run stop win rate stat?  A Panther made their top 10 for edge defenders but it wasn’t Burns. Gross Matos at 8.

First off he’s 11th in sacks over the last 4 years (since entering the league), and played more games than 7 of the 10 ahead of him.  

Didn't say that was for all 4 years. That was last season stats. 

He was behind Parsons, Garrett and Bosa in QB pressures and hurries last season. Just those 3 and 8th in sacks. 

In 2021 he had 48 hurries and 37 pressures with 9 sacks.

Not top top ten in run stop win rate, run stuffs. Has nothing to do with win rate. Burns gets a lot of TFL which translates to run stuffs. Runs stop at 0 yards gained or less.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
