YGM is outperforming Burns right now.  There’s a reason Burns was only in on 68% of the plays and had to play 20% of special teams snaps 

You sure that’s why he wasn’t on the field.  And nothing to do with him limping and already being on the injury report from last week

I mean we're in a rough place.  We didn't take the great trade offered by the Rams so Burns and his agent know how much value we place on him so they have an advantage there.  We now look like a desperate team in need of any help so I'm not sure the trade market is the best place either.

Take what you can because Burns isn't a foundational piece and he never was. Good passrusher and not much else. 

Alright 

so now how do you go about this offseason knowing DJ Johnson And Barno are your only Edge rushers under contract?

 

That my point of this thread.  I’ve heard a lot of trade him Vs keep him debate.

So let’s trade him, now what….

Aren’t there some solid DE FAs next year, and all I keep hearing about is our cap space, maybe sign one of them? Use the money from burns to pay Luvu and Brown?

There are no easy answers. Someone has to step up and at the end of either options this will still not be a good team but one has the chance to pick a 1st level talent and have the room for a good FA or 2 with Burns being elsewhere. I would take option 2 every time given Burn's value on the field vs what he wants and will be paid. It's not just a draft pick but also room to sing free agents along with the picks trading away Burns gives in value.

Trade him for tee Higgins and a pick

Now question 

would the Bengals even offer that trade.

considering

The reason the Bengals are shopping him is due to $$ after they just paid Burrow and going to pay Chase

So are they going to trade for a Edge rusher that is seeking 30 mil a year?

I would love a first, do you think that would be possible? 

Maybe - I think it depends on a few things like how Burns plays and if the Bengals get their act together.  If they return to form the pick is lower but they would wanna keep Higgins if they have a SB run this year.  But would be great

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.

      The nice thing about the timing of Bryce's contract at least is that it's going to match up with the 2027 Draft Class. No excuses, he either becomes Rams 2nd half Bryce year long, or we draft his replacement.  Nothing wrong with carrying Bryce on his 5th year expiring and a 1st round rookie waiting in the wings. Let the rookie sit until the trade deadline, deal Bryce to a needy team at the time, profit.

      Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.
