What are we saying is significantly less?  

Sweat went for a 2nd round pick, but he's older and less productive than Burns.  Frank Clark who was similar in age and production to Burns went to KC for a 1st and conditional 2nd (KC/SEA swapped 3rds).

I don't see any reason why we shouldn't get or expect at least a 1st round pick.

A single 1st is significantly less than two 1sts.

I’m the same honestly. If we have to choose between Brown and Luvu or Burns, I’m taking Brown and Luvu any day

With zero hesitation. Burns just hasn't developed. He's still the same one trick pony we drafted. He's a good player, don't get me wrong. But he's not the type of game changing play maker that you can dump huge cap space into.

Not only that, but seeing the effort that both Brown and Luvu put into every play is something I wish Burns would do.  I like Burns as well but he ain’t worth what he’s gonna be looking for.

I'm honestly past caring on the Burns front. I'd let him straight up walk before I gave him cap crippling money.

Yup. And it would be one thing if we felt like we were close and he could put you over the top. But that’s not where we are. Get whatever we can for him and move on. Brown is someone you re sign and build around in my eyes, Burns is not

 We should have traded him for 2 first when we had the chance. The one who turned it was fired and now it's water under the bridge.

Letting him go without any compensation sucks, but not as much as it would suck to overpay him and cripple the team financially.

He's just flat out not worth the cost. Let someone else overpay. Sure he'll get his revenge game against us but I can live with that.

I say you have to trade for whatever you can get, fug him for saying he played like he didnt want to get hurt.  You cannot have that type of attitude on a team thats trying win

Couldn't we tag and trade and get something for him? 

As far as him having his revenge game, I'd run the ball at him and also let him rush right up the field and throw HB wheels and short TE "screens" in the area he's vacated.  😆

That was such a terrible decision.  It was a massive haul for an Edge and on top of that gave Burns and his camp all the leverage in the world....when we all already knew how much Spooderman thought about himself.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
