He needs a new team and may never see the field again unless 3 CBs go down. That's fair by value and the reasoning since he's not getting on the field much , but PIT going all-in for the season, seems like it's counter to the GM's goal, unless it gives them some sort of win-now asset. A pick wouldn't make a lot of sense given the direction they're going this year. Edited October 15, 2019 by Broncofan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m all on board with that. Zero argument. But that brings me to the earlier Q - is your GM there? Or is he managing for his job? If it’s the latter - he may simply want to keep Burns as insurance with an injury to keep their win now hopes alive. A future Day 3 pick doesn’t help him keep his job. That’s my point. If your GM Colbert isn’t on the hot seat then ok. But the Steelers extended Tomlin and didn’t extend Colbert. Is he ready to think 2020 or is he going all out for 2019? If it’s the latter while it’s the wrong call long term he may not be thinking anything but 2019. That’s my point. I’ll defer to you all as to his mindset. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is when it comes to Burns it shouldnt matter. Burns sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker might be dead or the next former Browns QB in 3 years if you don't Friggen figure out a way of protecting him. Stop worry about 5 years in the future when the next 3 aren't even guaranteed? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still believe the parameters of a deal should be the Duane Brown deal, but the premise is 100% fair. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of Bakers problems are Bakers own damn fault. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
