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.

 

Yep. And I said back then we will regret this and this trade just solidified it.

And I am placing no blame on Morgan - not his fault that Fitterer was a complete retard and turned down that trade. I think Burns looking like crap last year made most teams hesitant to shell out Joey Bosa type of money - the Giants were just dumb enough to pay him that contract.

From Morgan's perspective, the decision by Fitt to turn down two firsts for Burns is not something that can influence his thinking going forward.  

That said - I hope they're pushing for #6, give them our 31st, and  one of Giants second round picks.

You know the trade is done, right?

Just saw it's final.  realistically best we can do with a player that's been tagged.  $30MM a year is too much for a player that doesn't show up when you need him the most. 

NFL Media reports that the Giants’ trade for Burns is complete. The Panthers will get second- and fifth-round picks in return, and Burns will get a five-year deal with a maximum value of $150 million and $87.5 million guaranteed, per NFL Media

I know how most feel about unknown twitter ppl with “insider info”, but this dude has been calling a ton of FA news this year. He leaked the Burns trade stuff before anyone else I believe. Here’s his latest on Burns, if there was a draft pick in the deebo offer I don’t know why they passed that up.

Wow they actually posted that bs tweet on network tv? That is so beyond sketchy. How do you count Burns as a one year rental, so you acknowledge he’s no longer part of the team, without counting the compensation the team got in return for him? Not to mention counting the trade that did not happen. Disingenuous at best. It looks bad enough without sketchballs skewing it to make it look worse. If you are a Panthers fan on Twitter you should be calling this out, not going along with this bs. Our fans love to be the woe is me whipping boys though so media will continue to do it. This thread is a prime example. What’s your safe word when you’re subbing for Big Bertha ladies?

      Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE.

      He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....

      High praise for TMac

      With a strong finish to the season, he has a real chance at being just the 3rd Panther to make the Pro Bowl in their rookie season (and just the 2nd as a non special teamer) after Cam and Smitty. He won't make it on the original selections, not over JSN, Puka, Pickens, St Brown, London, Jefferson who should all finish with at least the same amount of yards and TDs, if not more.  No rookie is getting selected over all those big name vets with similar statistical seasons. But a couple injuries and/or reaching the NFC Championship and pulling out of the Pro Bowl, he very well could be one of the first couple alternates and end up making it.  Last year the NFC ended up with 7 WRs making it in the end after players who pulled out got replaced.
