Not really. I doubt there were many offers, I doubt there were any higher and he wasn't going to stay here.

It just is what it is. He really didn't cost us much anyway so what does it truly matter?

Well, the priority is whining of course.

This is why you need to draft better.

 

Can't depend on FAs signing here. We had to overpay just to get 2 guards to sign here. Draft better the talent will come.

Yep. It all starts with the draft. If we draft better, the rest will fall into place

Anyone that's seen the videos of Morgan negotiating the Burns deal with the Giants staff shouldn't be surprised with this. His negotiating skills are laughably bad.

Morgan went from asking the giants for two 1st at senior bowl that downgraded to a 2nd and 5th. Morgan even tried begging the giants to add an additional 7th into the deal but the giants straight up told him no and Morgan caved...

The trade went down after the Giants was on record for saying that Burns was worth at least one 1st round pick

Watching Morgan outright beg them to add a damn SEVENTH rounder, while the Giants just laughed it off and told him no was the most embarrassing negotiation (if you can even call it that) that I've ever seen.

Holy sheet, I just saw that the Panthers also agreed to pay off almost all of DJ salary as well. The Ravens are only on the hook for 625k, Panthers end up paying over $17 million for him to end up playing for someone else. That was one of the few benefits of trading him away and you caved on that too?

What. The. Fug.

Bro I’m not surprised by anything this retard toilet bowl franchise does anymore. It’s almost like it’s willful at this point. There’s ineptitude then there’s intentional failure and if they aren’t doing this intentionally at this point, trading away high talent offensive players for peanuts, then they’re the dumbest franchise in the history of pro sports.

We don't have the cap space to be making big moves

It is unlikely to be big moves but a LOT of roster churn, I suspect. 

But, big moves are possible because we have a lot of guys that can be cut, as well.

It will he interesting to see if they panic and start trying to save their skins(Canales/Morgan) or they remain patient and build slowly.

That may be true, but we sent a 6th. We couldn't even get a 5th outright? It's just the principle. A 5th is bad enough as far as I'm concerned. I thought we'd get a fourth, but whatever.

Yeah, it's a little disappointing but it just is what it is.

Might as well keep him for the season at that price.

That really wasn't an option. He went full locker room cancer mode and we really don't need that at the moment. Especially with some potentially impressionable young WR's here.

I have no idea where you are getting these numbers but they are not accurate.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
