Gave you names . Not doing goddamn math for you… none of those guys are getting more than a couple year contracts. 
 

guess we’ll just have to see how it plays out.

 

edit: Huff got 50 mill( 1/3 Burns money) over 3 years. Most of those guys will be under that 

They won't come to Carolina for that price, bet.

It sounds like no other team was willing to trade AND give Burns $100+ contract so Morgan and co. had to settle for this trade package 

What other expectation was there really? People are just blowing months of steam knowing that there were 2 bad outcomes of that mess, overpaid or under valued in a trade.

Its funny to me that the same people who were using the argument that Burns was actually good because these other teams valued him so highly are the same ones saying we should have kept him because the compensation wasnt enough.   Looks like they were wrong on both parts.

Panthers lose no matter if they signed him to 30per or trade him for a 2nd+5th. 

It should have never gotten here- either traded him for that rams haul or you must resign him two years ago with what have been a 20per million bargain today. But its the Panthers and for the past few years they have made bad decisions yearly.

I agree, i think it was in the top 2 bad decisions in Panthers history,  i felt that since the day the details were mentioned, but that was a different decision makers and the past offer has nothing to do with the current one.   It was in the past.

Ahhh I remember the douche bags who were so excited about Fitterer turning down the Rams offer of 2 first rounders and a second and actually argued that Burns value would only go higher lmao.

 

I wouldn't call them d bags. That's a little harsh.

But only elite QBs are really worth 2 first rounders and a second. Burns was never gonna live up to that haul. Heck, 13 sacks a season wouldn't have been enough to justify that.

Agreed, and making the deal to move up last year would have been a lot easier if we had the Rams picks.   We might have even been able to keep DJ.

    • Look into that industry. And you also don't have to pick up the phone. 7 years and most debt is uncolectable as long as you never talk to the collectors. The collectors have so many illegal practices that an entire sub category of lawyers specialize is sueing debt collectors. It's a lot. To make billions in that industry makes it a lock. It's not an emotional statement. In the end the money doesn't care and neither does he. There are people that make a lot, millions upon millions, and then there are billionaires. If they didn't win the big loto chances are to make it to that level takes a certain kind of personality. The what they did to get there does matter. All of this is also documented if you want to take thr time to Google it. The credit industry is interesting and is very predatory.
    • This ain’t breaking news.  The return to field stats on ACLs are what they are…and this was talked about when we drafted him.   In season should be our first looks at him. 
    • I know I didn't play football at the highest level, but I was a rb for 3 years. To make the long story short my senior season I knew we had a chance to win state championship. The team we had the year before was led by our junior class. I sacrificed moving to a weaker position because I knew I had a more talented faster RB behind me. Cut the long story short we make it all the way to the last round before state championship. Early in the game I had a groin injury. But I didn't tell my teammates. I sucked it up and played until halftime. That was when my HC knew I could no longer help my team. Mind you this was in the mountains in Cherokee. It was ice cold the field felt like we were playing on cement. We would go on to lose that game by 40.    My thing is at least try to play through injuries. If you hurt let the coaches bring you out the game. I always had that mindset because that was how I was coached coming up. I would never milk injuries just because my team sucked. Especially when I know I was one of the better players on the team.   CMC a good guy off the field, but when I say fug him as a player I really mean it. He wasn't all in with the Panthers. I just can't respect that as a former football player.
