if you want to go all in on a super bowl and getting pressure on mahomes, burns would be the way for one year. b/c right now we're wasting our time again next year and the chiefs are winning again. the afc has no one unless burrow is healthy.

Nobody is trading for Burns without a long-term contract agreed on.

I was thinking that but I guess if the Bengals have tagged Higgins as basically a one year rental and don't intend to extend him they'd maybe think having Burns on a 1 year rental would give them a better chance of winning.

By all accounts Higgins is the Brian Burns of Receivers - Young, good, promising, not quite elite #1 player at his position.

Grass is always greener and all.

I'd still rather have a receiver so the offense doesn't look catatonic.

not sure I love that analogy.  Tee Higgins is a solid all around WR.  He just lacks that special quality that puts him over into that elite tier. 

Burns isn't a solid all around DE

Why would we make this trade?

We're nowhere near competing and in no position to hand out a mega contract to a WR.

Trade Burns for picks and rebuild properly. It's really not that hard.

We are nowhere near competing, but your plan is to not sign good FA's and keep depending on the draft to develop talent.

 

Did you see the draft we just had not a single good player came from that draft. Bryce the noodle arm midget and Mango ready to Tango was nowhere to be found.

 

Cmon man this goes both ways. You have to sign good FA's and draft well. The two goes hand and hand.

 

Cmon old man times has changed. You gotta spend big if you want a better product.

      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

      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.
