Gonna probably need to dump the GM to increase your odds of hitting a Brian Burns. Even with the world's best evaluators, it's an inexact science. I'm not a proponent of giving away something guaranteed for the chance at something as good as what was being given away.

Then you have to learn how to spend your CAP wisely. It’s a two edged sword, I get both sides.

nah they got one for cheaper in FA

 

Would you trade Burns if it was guaranteed you would have back to back top 10 picks?

So they got really lucky?

No, because our depth is trash and that would guarantee us 1-2 terrible seasons until we claim those picks.

I WOULD have traded him for 2 first rounders and a 2nd this past draft though.

I don’t follow. Did they trade their best D player for a 2025 They draft players that provide immediate impact. And by the way, LA offered 2 first rounders.


LA offered a 2024 and a 2025 1st. It wasn’t for this past draft.

To do what with those picks? Hopefully draft a Brian Burns?

well, we have a rookie QB we need to build around.  Just bandaids on the roster.  You could spend a first round pick on a freak skill player…..a first round pick on a freak pass rusher.  Both on rookie deals.

or you use those pick and alter the Bryce Young trade.  DJ Moore is still a Panther and you still got ammo for the draft

or use those picks to move in drafts/trades and whatever Mr. In On Every Deal could find.

all sorts of stuff you could do

Or, you get two Everette Browns. 

When people make this argument they forget about the cap space.  You don’t have to replace Burns production with the draft picks. Maybe you use the $25m you save to replace his production and then you use the draft picks to hopefully improve two other  positions.  
Maybe you get a player for $10m that gives you 80% of Burns and then use the extra $15m to drastically improve a different position. 

Personnel moves don’t happen in a vacuum.

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.

      Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
