Brian Burns


Recommended Posts

Been saying for years that Burns is a fantastic complementary piece and not a game-changer by himself - it was very clear. Guess it took the contract negotiation for it to finally be widely realized, as he just doesn't seem to have developed any farther.

Put Higgins on the roster right now and you wouldn’t even know the man existed. 
 

It’s time to unload and actually rebuild. Burn it all to the ground. I’m sick of this half assed “rebuild” we’ve been doing for 4 years now. 

We been rebuilding since Tepper took over.

 

Maybe we can't rebuild with him making decisions? This starts all from the top.

 

Fitt/Frank/Bryce are here because of Tepper.

I don’t disagree at all. It’s why it all feels so hopeless right now. Owner sucks, GM sucks, head coach sucks. We’re set up to suck for a long time too.

I was the biggest Bryce fan on this board. I can legit say he doesn't look like he will pan out. The size and lack of arm strength is alarming. He looks nothing like he did at Alabama.

 

We have to play him and see what we have. We can't go into next season with a QB who is still a question mark. He has to play this year no other choice.

I get it, but I really wanted Dalton to start just this week to at least get one win.  Next week, Young could go back to learning the ropes versus the Lions.  Looking at that 0 in the win column is a freaking gut punch man.

I see Tee Higgins and their 2nd making sense. Bengals will have a high 2nd like us. That'd give us at least 2 high 2nds next year. Week 4 and we already got to talk about the draft. Pour me a drink. 

I wish this was a possibility, but I can’t see it being a reality. The Bengals are having to offload Tee because of Burrow’s massive contract and Chase being up next. I can’t see a world where they can trade for Burns and then pay him the 30 mil a year or whatever he thinks he’s worth.

this is bad logic. What are you gaining from trading him? At worse hes someonr the defense has to account for and its harder to find pass rushers than other postions outside qb. then you have to draft another one and hope hes a pro bowler.

He was a liability yet again in the run game today, I am pretty sure its not going to take magic to replace his production

I thought about that logic honestly!! I think they'd do that bc they wouldn't be investing all on one side. You may be right tho but 1 things for sure, Burrow is not looking like the next Brady right now. They should go more run based until he gets right.

You would be wrong. Theres a reason the rams were willing to give up 2 first round picks for a one panthers player. because players that average 10 sacks a game dont grow on trees. You dont get better by trading away one of the few working pieces.

You want picks trade away other assets horn.. brown, icky.

    • By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though 
    • Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.
    • That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
