That tag and trade will be much harder than people are thinking. No one will pay him 30M if the team that put his value there won’t. Then give up picks to do it. 
 

   And he won’t sign the tag without having accepted a new deal from someone. Which means he is going to have to take much less than he wants. 
 

Montez Sweat for a 2nd and a 24M/yr deal. And he is every bit as good as Burns. Why would teams give more than that? 

Then it's a holdout.

It is what it is. We put ourselves in this bind when we turned down the Rams' offer. We just have to play the hand that we've dealt ourselves at this point.

My question to you why are you mad at a player on the defense?

 

What about the sorry offensive players?


Those guys are the players who actually suck on the team. If anyone should receive hate it is them.

 

*FYI I think Burns is probably the only players other teams would want from our team. Just saying someone trash is another person treasure.

 

i'm not mad... i just can tell you that burns just wants a payday....so he can go back and hang out on the street corner saying how bad he was in the NFL...like Benjamin....whoooaaaa.

@jamos14 pooing the poo out of me.

 

Cmon bro don't take this personal. We all adults. I love you man, im just saying we gotta chill on the Burns hate. He's a defensive player and the defense happens to be the only positive this entire season.

 

The dude out here playing injured and The Huddle treating him like he's the worst player on the team.smh

 

Not what I'm doing at all.  He's the 2nd or 3rd best defensive player on the team.

 

He has significantly under performed and he wants a big contract.  I'm irritated that the asking price for his salary is elite money but he hasn't shown that at all.

 

Not hate.  I want him to succeed.  I wish he was worth 35 mil.

I just dont want to hurt our future by overpaying him.

I always liked Burns but we are kidding ourselves if we think he is an elite DE.  He just doesn’t take over games and too often gets ran through in the running game. He also just doesn’t show up with the game on the line.

The pass rush didn’t miss a beat with him out the other day. The last true complete elite DE we had here was Greg Hardy.

Pocket watch professional athletes is hilarious. They all richer than us. Making them less rich is kind of a moot point.

 

But keep pocket watching I guess...

That's fair, but im pretty sure we won't overpay him. Anything below 30mil sounds fair to me. If he wants more than just trade him.

 

Until then I will still cheer for the guy, he's still one of our better players at the end of the day.

    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
    • Moton is a class act.  
    • Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
