You don’t pay 30 million a year to the dude who wants to be paid on previous years production, who then mails it in when he doesn’t get what he wants.

You pay 30 million a year for a game wrecker; the dude who shows up when the moment demands it. You pay 30 million a year to the guy who break NFL records.

To be people still sniffing Burns’ jock (Sheena included)…I don’t know what y'all have been watching for 4 years, but Burns was never that. And never will be.

I like Burns, think he has the skills to be elite, but it was time to go. He wanted out and we used the money wisely. Mile Sanders may still have something, he was a very good back for the Eagles and unless he fell off the face of the earth, hopefully being healthy and having a competent coaching staff will up his production and him and Hubbard can man the RB spots without spending draft capital.

Morgan said he wants "dawgs" on this team. Burns was a "dawg", but not in a good way. Good riddance. If he didn't want to give 100% on the field, then be gone.

Again. There is no way to be a bad "dawg." Using "dawg" negatively has gotta stop. If you must call him something, call him a dog, but not a "dawg."uga-biting-auburn-player-icegif.gif.f54a430c73be25954f06261a517f3251.gif

Honestly this is the easy part overall. Changing our trajectory with our ability to identify and draft good to very good talent is all I'm looking for right now. Given our new salary cap outlook it's even more crucial now. No pressure Dan.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
