If the panthers signed a FA one trick pony edge rusher who admitted to dogging all of last season quitting on his team, can’t play the run for s*** and whose potential has yet to materialize in 4 years for 25 million a year… the huddle would completely melt down and other teams would clown us. 

That would actually be a win of sorts. We offered 5 years and $27 mil, supposedly.

Burns is not a dawg. Hill I am willing to die on. Now let's see if Morgan was for real about how he wanted to build this team.

I said before that this is pretty much the Dan Morgan is legit test.

What he does with burns says a lot about what to expect going forward.

I'm just hoping that the teppers didn't make burns untouchable.

It probably won't matter in a couple of years except to a few hard core fanatics here.  If he gets traded or cut and plays well for another team, the hard core will claim its another DJ Moore, CMC situation and blame Morgan.  If we sign him for 30 a year, a different group of hard core fans will complain about that.

In the end though, Morgan will likely be judged on wins and what he does at QB if Young doesn't work out.

I just don't care if Burns is on the team or not.  In fact I associate him with losing.  I say take that money and let us build our offense up.  Let's become monsters on the offensive line and bring in some weapons.  I think it's easier to fix a defense then an offense now.  In fact the best defense is a good offense.  If we can control the ball and chew clock by sustaining drives it would be the best thing we could do for our defense with or without Burns.

I agree with all except want to pump the brakes on Burns. Am I correct that he wants 30 million and turned down 27 million? If so is he truly worth that much? If we were talking the top guy in the league or next to top guy in the league I understand but is Burns truly worth what he is wanting?

30 million no he isn't since he didn't play at full speed last year. Give him a 2 or 3 year with an option to talk after year two. Brown is coming up next year is he not.

Straight up let them go.. unless we can get them to sign on a good price.. Allowing us to  add to our team additional players who will help turn things around.
They are not what  a “franchise” player is. I always have assumed a franchise player is a guy who can by them-self make play after play that effects the game..

Luvu is close , Brown is as well, but Burns, He is not the guy that can just take the game into his hands and effect the out come of a game.

      Mike Kaye’s take: 2026 NFL free agency predictions

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Oh I totally get it, but just because we can do that, doesn't mean it's the right way to go.  If this was Madden with video game players, then sure, do it because it helps the cap.  But with real people, doing that is likely only going to piss him off and make him want to sign with any other team the following offseason. I'm not saying give him a stupid deal, but giving him like $3-5 million for the one season would be a massive raise over the minimum, it wouldn't hurt our cap situation, he'd still likely play well above that level of contract, and it would help keep him happier with the franchise. But in the end, all I really want is for them to find a way to make sure they won't be needing to do deals for both Coker and T-Mac in the same offseason, as that's a terrible way to spend your cap space in a single offseason.  Separating their contracts expiring/negotiations into different offseasons would be the best way to keep them both around long term.

      Going into that drive with 3 timeouts in our back pocket, I could never imagine the game plan was for Bryce to throw the ball away 3 times in a row to result to this 4th down situation. 3 fuging time outs available and acted like it was hail mary situation

      Consensus view on Evero summed up in 1:00

      By Castavar · Posted

      Absolutely should have been a fireable offense (and this coming from a guy who defended Evero throughout the season) There is only 3 outcomes you want on that drive. 1) Turnover  2) sack 3) They score fast so we get the ball back with a lot of time and 3 timeouts to win the game We chose the absolutely WORST possible scenario. We let them waltz down the field playing soft zone AND let them kill the clock in the process. If there was EVER a time to play aggressive with no consequence, it was on that drive. Ok, we play aggressive and get burnt on a long TD. Who cares, then we have the last possession to go win the game with 3 timeouts and  at least 1:30 left. Pisses me off just watching that video.
