I'm new here today. Is there a story behind the "poo" thing? I feel like I haven't seen anyone use the word this way anywhere before. And then today I've read it here like 100 times.

Hello and welcome. Pie and poo are the two extremes reactions to posts. Pie is good. Poo is, Poo.  Pied one of your posts (it was a good well thought out statement imo) and pooed the one I am referencing for example purposes only as I mean no ill will. 

 

Congratulations, you picked an interesting time to join.

I think they mean the actual word “poo” because it autocorrects from the s word when people post it here.

Detroit would be 1 team I look at but we definitely  missed out on trading him 2 separate  times already. To the Rams and to move up for Bryce. We could've possibly kept our 1st next year by including him. 

If you were talking about the Bears that was not in the cards. Bears GM insisted that it would take DJ and a 1st.

Thanks to both of y'all! I'm surprised I hadn't found the site sooner.

For everyone that takes the rumored Rams trade as gospel (this is the NFL  -it's a rumor/unsubstantiated until it's done), it wasn't going to help us at that time.  Sure, now it looks great - but you also have to consider what you're losing in Burns.  They were offering the '24 and '25 1st round picks.

Burns is still one of the top 10 edge rushers in the NFL, and he's shown improvement in run support.  You can point to his lack of sacks versus the other premium guys, but his win rate is still top 10.  He's also playing on a bad team so there aren't enough opportunities to get after the QB.  He can also do more if he wants to get paid like a top 10 edge guy.  Let's accept that he's probably the most talented player on our team, but he's not showing it.

Given where the Rams are now 3-3 (spot 19 at tankathon), that puts us outside of the top 15, generally when the talent between the 16-45th picks have similar value player by player.  Certainly, having a 1st round pick gives you more ammo to move around and pick up more picks by trading down, but can you replace Burns?  His game is speed and bend.  Those guys do not linger very long.  Looking at some rando top 75 (pff if your curious) - are we getting someone who can replace Burns between 19-33?  Nope, I just don't see it.  Please let me know how wrong I am. 😃

But the Panthers didn't get two draft picks.  Chances are if a winner trades you a first round pick, they are counting on at worst it being a mid-low first round pick.  I just don't think there's the value in trading Burns without anyone here or in the draft who can replace him. 

You still need a pass rushers in the NFL.

      I just wish the man would file his paperwork for retirement so he could get the accolades he so richly deserves form the Panthers and the NFL   He is being a damned knucklehead

      you can't turn Teddy Bridgwater into a gunslinger just because that's what you want.   It's DNA and tools.  It's pretty simple.   You can try to make the best of what you have though.  Trying to make it work, doesn't change what Teddy naturally is.  Remember, folks argued that silly one too.  But it's the same logic here.  It's like saying, you know what Jake.....let's no longer gamble.  That's over.  We are just taking the safe checkdown.  Get it out nice and quick.  Sure, it might work here or there. But eventually he gonna see 89 in triple coverage downfield and say fug it.    round pegs are round pegs.  round holes are round holes.  we have seen people trying to force them forever......but the saying exist for a reason.  They generally are what they are.   the Luke comment was just a fun nod and trying to wrap this up friendly, I was trying to largely let you off the hook on all of your very stern lectures of the Tepper era we are in.....and how horribly wrong you have been there about what was coming.  Guess you got the goldfish thing going on with all those.  I would too.
