i take the Gettleman quote (its paraphrased of course) as the point being if you have a true difference maker at one spot, it overcomes three guys who are say shaq thompson types. great is so hard to find its carries premium value. a top five/ten guy at a position changes the whole team. 

Problem is, Burns is closer to a dime than a quarter, IMO. He’s maybe like a 15 cent piece who wants to be paid like a quarter.

Whatever we get for burns won't be near what we should have if we had done it at the right time last year.

Blame for missing out on anything close to that value falls squarely on Fitts shoulders.

We'll get what we can and it will be the right price. The right price is always what someone is willing to pay.

We'd like more. We may be pissed with less. We'll get what we get and we'll have to accept it.

lol Giants fans are happy as hell on reddit.

 

At least Burns has a fanbase who embraces his talent.

 

Now we stuck with no pass rushers on the roster. Dan Morgan should be fired on the spot. Evero has to be fuming 2 of his top 3 defensive players are now gone smh.

 

 

No pass rushers isn't much different than having Burns. He was not a game changer.

After Burns admitted to mailing it in last year and playing not to get injured, do you really think he’s going to do much different on the franchise tag? We can find a one dimensional 7 sack pass rusher for much cheaper.

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
