The Rams had put a 2024 first, 2025 first and a 2023 second-round pick on the table for Panthers pass-rusher Brian Burns. Carolina refused to give up one of its core pieces

----

For everyone upset that we didn't trade Burns, for two #1 picks I have a question for you. How much of an impact do you think the Rams 2023 2nd round pick would have helped us this year with the current FO/GM running the show?  With the exception of Chinn who have we picked in the 2nd round since 2020 that has made a real impact on the field?

Those 1st round picks would have been in 2024 and 2025. Based on what I've seen so far, I wouldn't have any faith in our FO to choose the right players to address our needs. Fitz would probably trade down and pass over the blue chip players to get more draft choices... and end up adding more JAGS to the roster. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I don't think he's proven to be the talent evaluator we thought he would be.

Passing over Sam Howell and trading up to get Matt Corrall is inexcusable.

Trading down to get TMJ made no sense at all since we passed over at least 4-5 lineman who could have started immediately and Robbie Anderson had just been extended. After we picked him, KC picked Creed Humphrey at Center 5 picks later and seems to be on the verge of becoming an All-Pro

I don't even want to talk about the CJ Henderson and Sam Darnold trades.

I think he's got until 2024 to turn this thing around. If things don't start trending up that's a sign it's time to bring someone else in to run the FO.

At this point I'd rather sign Burns and make him the focus of our defense.
Unsure if Brown deserves the kind of cash he is going to expect.
No way we can give a bag to Jaycee Horn.

Pass rushers of Burns caliber are just extremely expensive in the draft and in FA.
Quality wideouts are routinely found in almost every round of the draft.

I'm also not entirely sure even a bonafide receiver can fix our current offensive woes.

      The new (released today) FOX ONE app will allow you access to watch your Local FOX Station - similar to how the Paramount Plus app allows you access to watch your local CBS station It'll cost you $20/month for the privilege, but if you're having trouble accessing the over-the-air antenna for FOX, this could be an option to consider the new ESPN app will give you access to ESPN content, but not to the local ABC affiliate. A reminder: if you currently get ESPN via some TV provider (cable, satellite, youtube, etc) then you should be able to use the new ESPN app via your provider login, no additional payment required

      XL went to one of the worst teams in the NFL.  One that features a weak passing O and bad overall QB play on the season.   XL is getting way too much hate IMO.   He had an okay rookie season all things considered.   Very much on par w/ prospects that projected around the same area with him.   Panthers made a 2nd rounder a first round technicality for that contract.  XL also getting this weird kicker type blame for games.  XL somehow single handedly lost us games on one play.....and then we ignore the rest of the team that went about losing the game for 4 quarters.   Should he of caught the Philly ball? 100%.  The O and D still played like garbage that entire game.  Even after the drop, Panthers had two shots starting w/ a 3rd and 4 to convert.  They kept playing bad instead.  And even if we XL made the play....Philly would have had a minute and half to get into FG range to win it.  Who is banking on the Panther D getting that stop?  also, I am deemed Mr. Negative, yet here I am defending a no good dirty Gamecock lol
