NY Giants made this man the 2nd highest paid DE in NFL history lmao. They didn't learn anything from the To Daniel Jones contract last year.

 

Its also funny hearing Skip Bayless call him a top 5 DE this morning on Undisputed. Crazy how he goes to bigger market and people now decide to praise him. Nobody was talking about Burns when he was a Panthers. Now he's a big deal.

They are about to find out. Teams will run right at him.

Here we go again trying to justify bargain bin Picks as some lotto hit. 

I definitely hear you but what were they supposed to do? I don’t mean in 2022 or even 2023, but the situation as it stood for the latest round of team building.

Did you want him to be given somewhere around 12 percent of the total budget, at his current level of effectiveness? And I absolutely understand the lack of sack opportunities that are reflected in that production but how was that really going to change enough to make 30 million a good idea? 

I think it was literally at a point of no return.

Going into this past season, he was considered by many a top 10 edge in the NFL. His advanced metrics are off the charts, even last year in a down year they were still really good.

What's going on in here?

Still arguing over Burns I see. Time to wrap this thread up and move on guys. Burns is a Giant. So far we've got two rotational guys. We're doing the best that we can.

If we can sign a guy suited to be a starter, great. If not, we're going to have to fake it 'til we make it. I think that a 3-4 lends itself to more flexibility in terms of rushing the passer, so Evero will be able to fake it even more if necessary. I personally hope that we can get Clowney or Young, but if we don't, I'm not crying over it. All we can do is put in the effort. If a healthy Haynes is signed, we'll have an even better guy to throw in the rotation.

Gentlemen, it's time to look to the future.

2nd highest paid DE in NFL history just doesn't seem right. Wish him well he was my favorite player on the team.

A lot to pay for a dude who half-stepped last year by his own admission and who gets beat up in the running game. To me, he is worth about half of what he will be getting.

We dismantled the defense to help Bryce because we don’t know if he’s good or not.

We’ve just shuffled deck chairs.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
