At this point it doesn’t matter. It was a bad move to decline that trade but we can’t let that prevent any future moves.

Agreed. Sunk cost fallacy. Yesterday's price is not today's price. Fitt fumbled the ball with that (non)move, but if you're not prepared to pay Burns $28-30m per then you gotta move him.

The whole reason they’re moving on from Higgins is they can’t afford him and Chase after paying Burrow. How would they pay him what he wants with the Chase extension coming?  I want burns as a Panther but at this point expecting a tag and trade. Also would love to send him to Detroit for Jameson Williams and a pick.  Also Chicago has the cap. Could get our pick back but then looks like we got fleeced.

decline rams-burns trade and then trade away our best WR since Steve smith because "receivers are easier to replace than premier pass rushers"

to now, unable to resign Burns and having a bunch of slow bums at WR

DJ wasn't elite but he was very solid especially in the short and intermediate game along with his YAC. Which is perfect for QB play style like Bryce's and the "offense" we seen the past two games. not only that, he was on a reasonable contract

It's going to be a buyers market for him this time around because whoever gets him knows they'll have to pay him after half a season.

If we could get back into the 1st round and a handful of pocket lint, I'd do it. Burns could have a great career just getting swapped around to teams that feel they are a pass rusher away from a title.

As if anybody who would have traded for him last year didn't know he was up for a massive new deal then?

I think it would more have to do with tying so much money up in 3 offensive skill positions.  Burrow, Chase and Burns is a much smarter investment than those 2 and Higgins.

I'm afraid the Panthers front office has the same football acumen as some of the posters. 

Rhule sure did, getting rid of Bridgewater after the one season, the only reason were even competitive that season and he and his offensive guru Brady were being crowed about. 

To becoming a laughing stock onward. 

If we get rid of Burns now after saying no to the Rams trade and sending Moore to Chicago just turn the GM position over to AI see what it can do.

I kinda had the same feeling roll across my mind but there’s got to be someone of near equal value and I’m not sure who that would be.


also Michael Pittman is currently not under contract with Indy next season

Yeah pittman, a splash. I wish this franchise would go all in on skill positions

      Lol Atlanta looks to have lost their young edge rusher, has no 1st round pick, a complete mess at QB, a new coaching staff… And we swept them this year. Says what they think of us.

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I mean, you can only go so far with the propping up. When a guy's numbers are as bad overall as Bryce's you have to try to find specific niches to sell. It's just funny that they're honing in on where he's probably weakest to try to prop him up. Whether it's a pro-Bryce conspiracy or not, it echos my chief complaint about PFF's analysis for years. When your purely statistical analysis badly skews from the eye test of actually watching the games, it should be screaming at you that you need to modify your system not double down on it. PFF is awesome at compiling stats but their grade systems are highly flawed and they never seem to try to improve them.

      Then why is Byce also last in other PFF stats?  The deep ball thrower stat by PFF can simply be flawed vs some conspiracy trying to prop up a QB on a team that a former employee now works for.  Both of these guys were also hired AFTER the Panthers had already drafted Bryce.  Trying to prop him up with a made up stat while he struggled would be a detriment to their own team honestly.
