The CAP is now $255.4 MILLION….. now pay Burns, Brown, Luvu and let’s get this ship righted

[Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D.]

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.

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.

Of course the same guy that offered that also turned down an offer for two firsts for burns and ended up getting fired.

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's all relative. Who doesn't understand that?

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.

tag burns ship to cincy for higgins straight up

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.

If I'm Cincy I'm trying to keep Chase and Higgins both. Boyd is the expendable one IMO. I'd be looking to replace him in this deep WR draft.

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. 

[Shocker]

Really not interested in giving Burns 30 mil per. 

[pww42]

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.
