Scenario: You’re our GM

[stratocatter]

I don’t get to make trades, the owner locked all transactions when he fired Fitterer, told the coaching staff to pay no attention to salary or draft position, play the best players and figure it out with what you have been given.

I would take anything of good value for any star on defense. Burns, Horn, Chinn, 

draft and free agency look for a NT, speed on WR, MLB

i think we will end 4-13 and Chicago will have a nice pick, but it will not be our pick at number 1

If the NFL had 28 regular-season games instead of 17, this team still wouldn't get a win. It's 0-17 this year and next and then hope a new coach comes in and isn't dogshit.

It’s evident we have many holes to fill and the ball was dropped in management of trade requests prior to the draft. 
 

To think we could have had Burns for 2 1st rounders and we didn’t jump on it makes me sick to my stomach.

We have no 1st round pick in 2024.

 

We have traded away our two best offensive weapons in Christian and DJ. Currently our best performer is a guy who was really brought in with the intention of a veteran presence and sure hands for short yardage and 3rd down situations.

I’ve seen speculation of different players on the defense that could be traded such as Chinn, Horn, Jackson, but in reality teams are not necessarily going to come knocking for guys that A) have injury history or B) aren’t going to be able to contribute for the next 4-5 weeks.

 

Burns makes the most sense to deal, even now retrospectively. 

That being said, what’s the lowest price you take for Burns?

One first round pick? Two first rounders? Combo of a 1st and higher round pick? Straight up player swap?

 

What is even realistic at this point now that our leverage has taken a huge hit?

 

Will they even trade Burns at this point?

 

Thoughts? 

If I were GM I'd kick David Tepper in the fuging balls, so I'd have some satisfaction and could then work for a franchise worth two shits or become another ESPN NFL "analyst"

I absolved myself from this place for a week while at the coast...SOS....but you are reality...

[Hogan]

I would negotiate a buyout.

1. Determine if Tepper is actually meddling in personnel decisions 

2. If the answer is yes, find another job

My guy this is no battle. Just another burnt out topic about trading Burns.

 

Also I rarely make topics, but when I do they are some of the best topics on this entire site. Put some respect on my name!

I did exactly that to an old G&L bass a few years back. Sounded like a brand-new instrument afterward.

I like me some G&L Guitfiddles.

I’d announce blue Jean Fridays were mandatory so Tepper would fire me. 

[SmokinwithWilly]

Hire Scott Fitterer again just so I could get the one to fire him

The rams offer for burns was the worst thing for this fan base. 

Now it's let's get rid of all of our talent and burn the house down, so we can redraft a whole fuging team.

It was, however, by far the best for the team, and between the record and the failed negotiation this year has shown exactly why.
