we've got 24 million in cap space, we can go buy his 8 sacks a year for a lot less. 

Really? Who, I want names, as this seems to be the group-think thought process.

Who are the Panthers targeting to replace Burns? How much do you think the contract will be?

Reality is going to hit some of you hard this season. The cap space is going to disappear over-paying free agents to prop-up Bryce and the team as a whole is going to flounder.

i dont work in the front office, scrow. his stats are pedestrian thats not debatable. between the money we now have, we'll see if Morgan knows how to pick free agents. 

Reality hit me when Luke retired and Cam got hurt. This is a long time coming. sorry the dopamine is taking a beating, just have to ride it out.

he wouldnt have a choice, Morgan had options and if this was the best trade that came in then he fuged up

these guys are notorious for shenanigans when they want a long term deal and the current team doesnt want to give it. He most certainly had a choice to play like a clown and waste even more time dragging out the inevitable.

Who is going to replace Burns? All that production?

The only thing really missing now is the fantasy that this is the year Burns becomes what the team always said he would. NY is going to be a rough landing spot to underachie.

Man, now I wish we had not done this and paid $3.3m per sack. (sarcasm)

Folks, he was not that great.  We get the #39 pick in a very deep draft at positions we need.  We get $25m to spend to keep Brown and maybe sign another player. 

Point?  There is another side. 

Another 2 or 3 players at the tag price. I hated seeing Moore go but that was on a good contract. This ain't that.

Honestly, if I'm Derrick Brown I'm gonna do the same thing. Play the season out and force my ways out of here under the tag a year from now.

If I'm Evero I'm honestly contemplating handing in my resignation tomorrow morning. We've gutted his D. Traded Burns for a very disappointing return, cut a starting CB, cut a starting safety, and let our best LB walk. We went from having a decent D trending up to having the worst unit in the league on paper in a matter of days.

I wouldn't blame him. Losing 2 of your top 3 defensive players who both happened to be the pass rush in just embarrassing.

 

Of course Burns is not worth 30mil, the point is you let him go without replacing him. Now we have 2 holes to fill at DE. This franchise just continues to make bad decision. Tepper hiring Morgan was all I needed to know. He's hiring people that have been around the franchise. Nothing is going to change.

Getting a 2nd and a 5th just isn't acceptable. You had to come out of that trade with a 1st. They refuse to participate with #6, fine. Give me next year's 1st and a mid-rounder this year. No? Fine, we'll keep talking to other teams.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.

      Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
