Its up to Fitter to trade Burns since he refused to give him the extension he so deserved! And if he doesn't, he's walk for nothing. What a clown this guy is.

Trade Burns for Jamo NOW!!!!

It's a WIN WIN for both sides to fill a BIG NEED!!!  DO IT FITTER!!!!

His chemistry  with Bryce is underrated. A wr I'd definitely  be on board for. His rookie contract also helps us continue  to build. I been on the Metcalf train too but Jameson  allows for more building and His stock is lower.

Prediction: we trade a late pick for a big RB. Cheap way for a big improvement. Right now this is a big deal on short yardage plays not having a single QB or RB that can move a pile. 

We would be insane to trade away any picks even late one for a RB.  Any RB we get using a late round pick is not going to be any better than someone we have on the roster.   If you are going to reach for a RB I'd rather poach one off a practice squad which would only force us to keep him on the roster.

Definitely and a big back won’t be very effective out of our primarily shotgun offense. But I would definitely ship a late pick for a proven Vet WR to help Bryce develop

They absolutely need to do something in order to help Bryce. I truly dgaf who they trade from the defense if it means helping Bryce out on the offensive side of the ball. What he’s working with right now is criminal. 

The last few weeks Bryce has proved a lot while doing so with below average talent. 6 games into a career. Please get this kid some damn help

Former beat writer Jonathan Jones reiterates Burns is unlikely to be traded:

Quote

Teams are being told Carolina is unwilling to trade Brian Burns. Safety Jeremy Chinn was the most likely player to be moved there before his quad injury landed him on IR. Cornerback Donte Jackson and wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. are also on the block.

Burns for a 1st+.  TMJ or Chark for some day 3 picks.  Donte Jackson possibly a day 2 pick or a combination of early day 3 picks.

I don't know how you can let Chark or Jackson go unless you get a significant offer. Chark still offers some semblance of a deep threat (if Bryce can get time to throw). And, we are thin on DBs at the moment.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
