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.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
