I have complete confidence that the Burbs deal will get done.  As far as his pr8ce, it'll be fair market value whether anybody else cares to admit it or not. 

What is his fair market value though? Because two of the more recent deals he's going to want to surpass went to guys of honestly take over him. Those guys being Crosby and Sweat. Those guys are complete players. Burns is a one trick pony. It's the trick that gets you paid but he quietly sucks against the run. He's good on pursuit but he's a liability when you run at him.

Literally one of the worst run defending edges in the entire NFL. I love Burns. He’s one of the few autographs in recent years I went to get. But he’s not a complete player and for like two years now I thought he’d get better at setting an edge and he just hasn’t.

Yeah, I was very high on Burns but he just hasn't developed at all. Seems like no one we draft does.

This is why Burns should have already been signed or shipped off when the Rams came calling. They are going to have to pay him way more than he is worth. 

Fitt strkes again, he is absolutely worthless as a Gm and should have been gone when Rhule lelft. 

Hurney was 10x better.

He sucks so bad against the run he gets left unblocked sometimes and still doesnt make the tackle. or stonewalled by a TE.  To top that off in reality he probably isnt even a top 5 pass rusher and that is his calling card.

Borderline top 10 pure pass rusher. Bottom third run defender.

24.5M/yr really doesn’t seem too bad. I’d prefer Sweat in a 4-3 over Burns, tbh, and I remember having that same thought on draft day. We’ve been stuck in this weird space with either too many 4-3 players trying to play 3-4 or too many 3-4 players trying to play 4-3 since Ron’s final year when he decided we were going to go hybrid. This franchise been back asswards for so long.

Noooooo idea how Burns can ask for 30mill per with a straight face after Sweat just got 24.5 per

I’d take Crosby over Burns and he’s at 23.5. 

Sweat 24.5.

Burns has no business asking for anything more than 25.5

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
