 Sweat was 24M, and still had half a year at only 5M. In the same situation(but making less) as Burns. And he went out and led two different teams in sacks while being one of the best run defenders at edge in the NFL for years. Burns disappeared while trying not to get hurt. So who would give him more AND picks? 

I'm not saying the Panthers would get Deshaun Watson type trade compensation, but a single 3rd is a bit ridiculous. As I have said before, a couple of day 2 picks is reasonable. For those needing an Edge this season, who else are they going to go after? Franchise tagged Josh Allen? 31 year old Shaq Barrett? 31 year old Leonard Floyd? Bust Chase Young? Or trade into the top 10 to draft Dallas Turner? 

Burns on a long term deal for some day 2 picks is completely reasonable for a team in the Edge market.

The whole single 3rd round pick thing is some team trying to "deaden" his market through the media.

some stooge for some big market team thought he was about to plunder the dumb little market team with the stupid owner for a great player and he’d get lots of butt pats for it and when he realized it wasn’t going to happen he got mad, these guys always feel like they’re entitled to players on bad teams and throw a fit when it doesn’t happen

“adapt to present circumstances”

the circumstances: Burns nets a first plus or we just simply elect to keep a good player at a premium position. Pay the asking price.

I think we’ve all seen firsthand that trading a good player for a 2/3/4 isn’t really worth the compensation 

could you imagine the shot of life that a player like mccaffery could’ve been to a rookie QB with a porous offensive line could have been 

i recall at a lot of points especially prior to the reich firing that we didn’t even deploy a back as a check down option

CMC and DJ were arguable the two most important pieces for a rookie QB to have. We traded away both then drafted one.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By frankw · Posted

      Yeah I find myself flipping between the worst case scenario of Bryce either playing just mediocre enough for our decision makers to justify giving him a contract extension in their eyes because they want to justify drafting him. Or Bryce going back to playing poorly and us having no one else to fall back on because Pickett might be decent for one or two games but there's no one else and our locker room starts to get ugly because we went all in with our salary cap and guys careers are on the line. This scenario which IMO is the higher probability given our schedule and the amount of tape out there on Bryce is why I say if we can trade down and acquire a few more mid or late round picks we should draft a developmental QB. Not looking for a guy to be the savior but someone with the necessary physical tools and who could actually run a QB sneak. But we'll just have to see how it shakes out. I just want a competitive team but the last thing I want is the season to fall apart because we once again threw our arms up in regards to the QB room.

      ^This. Rico was dynamite when we needed it last season, but not enough to keep but it massively upped his earning potential. It was a win-win for both sides. And he was there to cover the hole left by the injury to another RB, and hopefully his release to free agency means there's good news for us on the way. These new ones give us the opportunity to do that again, on the offensive line and elsewhere. We've got some long term question marks here and there due to injuries and age, and these players have a chance to up their value on the open market or settle down with us if the opportunity arises. And none of it ties us down with dead money down the road if it doesn't work out. And we've been in dead money hell for a decade now. Lease the ones you like, buy if you fall in love.
