He’s checked out gotta tag and trade and invest everything on the offensive side of the ball 

Does anyone know how much it would cost to tag him. I know it won’t be cheap-something like an average of the top 5 player at the position?

Yeah he made his statement and then put it on cruise control.

Other teams are watching too. I don't think they are super impressed. 

It’s just a bad look with the timing when all everyone is talking about is your contract and then as the talk dies down so does your production. I don’t consider it a coincidence. 
 

I feel like he told himself he’s going to make Fitt feel it until he caves for a new contract and when Fitt didn’t buy his bluff he was content with taking his franchise tag and moving onto a new scene in 2025. But that’s just my tinfoil hat logic.

Burns has played very poorly the past two games, not to mention the ejection.  He got worked by Wirfs and was a non-impact starter.  

Bigger picture, he still holds a lot of value by simply being a versatile pass-rusher.  But he's not providing enough for us and what we need for a guy warranted that high of share of the DL allocation.  He's a pass rusher, poor run defender...so his pass rushing better be dominant, yet here it sits, in the NFCS, at 6 sacks (36th/t) 

I also think it's now clear that he doesn't want to play here.  He didn't get traded, so then he was waiting to see the market work itself out.  It reset a bit, he realized he can possible get $30 mil.  Meanwhile, he got to see how good the team was this year, which as we all know imploded before even taking off.  

You can just see it. He doesn't want to be here and he wants the dinero.  

It would make sense if we did what Tepp/Fitt/Reich expected us to do this year (compete).  But now, we've honestly got more to build than last season which is hard to fathom.  So he's waiting, it will likely be a tag & trade.  The crappy thing is that he still has leverage at this point as bad as he's been.  That's again, another thing on Fitterer.

I never would have thought the bar could be lower than Gettleman or Hurney.

Isn't that fun to remember? The simple days of who sucked more, Gettleman or Hurney?

Meanwhile, Fitterer is digging a trench under that bar.

Fitts laid that bar across the Grand Canyon and is mooning them from the bottom.

    • Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!
    • Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.
    • I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
