Good no more trading up

Still think they could potentially trade Burns to get a 1st.  

Especially with Morgan talking about wanting football players that are tough, gritty, "have that dawg in them".    Burns is the softest "star" player here.  

Need to build around guys like Brown and Luvu who fight every play.

I think you can add Luvu as well. Him and Brown should be the foundation pieces of our defense.

I think Luvu is a really good player.  I don't consider Luvu an attitude/not nice dude between the lines.    

 Ron had some dudes.   That's the last time we had players that had a real edge to them IMO.  Brown got some in him but I just don't see it elsewhere.  You need a mix.  Our recipe has been missing those types.

He's not a player who pushes the lines or anything.  But everything about him is tough and setting the tone for the defense.

 

Opposite of Brian.

When you compare Burns to his peers there is a stark contrast. I want the Crosby, Hutchinson, Watt, Bosa types. The hungry animals that are in on every play, super high motor, constant disruption

I don' think you have to be a line crosser.   Cam brought it.  Luke did.  Thomas Davis did.  They were not pleasant people on the football field.   And they probably weren't pleasant to teammates who opted to phone it on.

Luvu is a high motor high intesity guy on the field and super laid back off the field.  I don't have an issue if you have a player that can flip the switch.. much like Luke.

I’ve gotten the sense the past few years that Burns is a bit of a cancer. He’s not leading in the right direction.

1000%.   How can you be a leader and captain of a team and then admit you mailed it in because you didn't get a new deal and were playing not to get hurt.

I think we should. He admitted he wasnt playing hard due to fear of injury.

He is a good not great player. We can find more of those. Trade him if you can, tag him again if you can't.

      What we had then, what we have now...

      By d-dave · Posted

      If only those guys grew on trees? The 2015 team was really special.  That was such an incredible year until the Super Bowl. What happened was the owner let the football people handle football decisions.  We had a front office that made some really good decisions.  Just hit on FAs and draft picks at a high level.  Those guys became GREAT players.  Our head coach held the team to a standard, but allowed them to be themselves.  That let so many of those guys grow into vocal leaders and tone setters.  Then we had Cam play lights out for the entire year.  We had a defense led by Luke, one of the best to ever play.  We had guys like Greg and TD who were so smart and tenacious. That was a special team.  The biggest question is how do we bring that back?  We don't because we can't.  Instead, we need to build up the team again.  Bryce is not Cam, duh.  Maybe he's not even the guy next season.  But there are some dudes like DB, Horn, Chubba who are all high character, effort productive players. As team, they need to lean into what they do well, and give Bryce his opportunities to prove himself.  If not, you keep building the best team and work on that QB.

      Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was less than thrilled after the Miami Dolphins lost against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, 27-24, dropping their record to 1-4 on the season. "He was really frustrated, just like I was," head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday. "We talked about the challenge ahead to get ready for the Los Angeles Chargers, and that was really the extent of it." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25257873-mike-mcdaniel-admits-dolphins-owner-was-really-frustrated-after-loss-panthers
