Speaking of revisiting trades: Brian Burns

While he was here, Burns was more of a fan favorite than an actual force on the field. Glad he was able to find a home elsewhere, but it wasn't like we traded away prime Peppers.

Still, would have been nicer to have gotten that package deal from the Rams, but we were stupid.

All of these sacks and yet he isn't helping them win games. Burns was not going to thrive being on the Panthers, he needs the Giants defensive line to take the pressure away from him. Am I upset that we traded him? No, I do believe that we could have gotten more for him though. Panthers have had talent in the past, we just can't keep them all together and win with them ex CMC, DJ Moore, Burns.

Let's not forget he is on an absolutely STACKED d line. Good for Burns, but you can't say he would be putting up these numbers here. 

Exactly. He is like the #2 WR that stacks receptions because teams can’t leave the #1 guy in single coverage. They have to dare somebody to beat them. 
 

Of course once he knew we turned down two 1sts he was going for the huge contract if he wasn’t already. I  think we were right to let him go at that point.

Should have traded him to the Rams when they offered two first round picks. 

Another Fitterer blunder. 

This is just mind blowing to me.

I would believe you if you told me Fitterer was intentionally sabotaging the team.

It is completely unacceptable, unbelievable, and unforgivable.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
