DawgX Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I think had the Browns lost yesterday, we would have been much more open to trading Hunt. Having won, our season is still alive (although maybe just barely) and that made us more willing to keep Hunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you’re still in the Hunt? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 1 last year (off 84 targets) compared to the 10 of Kelce (134 targets). Had more to do with YAC than it did Hock, lol. Isnt the blocker you’d want, especially for someone his size. Blocking is actually pretty low on the totem pole too when you look at the elite TEs, Kittle is really the only one that does it at a high level. Talent is obviously there, but I just don't think he has that dog in him to go from above-average receiving TE to an elite one. I think he's perfectly content doing what he does and getting that bag for doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine he wasn’t the #1 choice for any of these teams that wanted a RB. Maybe his history has something to do with it. Not all organizations will turn the blind eye like the Cleveland Browns clearly will as we all know. 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland turning a blind eye to a situation’s like Watson and some team turning a blind eye to a situation like Hunt’s, are vastly different. Hunt’s situation wasn’t even DV, it was just labeled that way for some reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrry32 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 The Browns were dumb to refuse to trade either Hunt or D'Ernest Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Woof. Think I would’ve taken that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Burns is only 24. DJ Moore is also young. I can see the Panthers not completely wanting to go full-fire sale when they'll be looking for a new coach in a few months. Don't want to reduce the roster to expansion-level status.

For a GM with job security? Two FRPs for a good but not great rusher is a steal. They’re a year off, which isn’t great, but who knows what the Rams will look like by then. It’s not like we’re talking KC’s picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re a year off, which isn’t great, but who knows what the Rams will look like by then. It’s not like we’re talking KC’s picks. Rams definitely can only offer 2024-25 as the earliest. I get both sides TBH - it's a gamble, but the chances that the Rams go-for-it mode finally crumbles apart in either 2023 or 2024 isn't small. They lost their LT to an Achilles, the D is a mess, and their core will be 2 years older. On the other hand, Burns is only 24, and yeah, those picks are the equivalent of a 2023 2nd and 2023 3rd - and they don't help the GM keep his job in 2023. But from an org perspective, ESPECIALLY if the goal is to get your QB, trading away Burns also gets closer to that. But it's just tough when it's a premium position player, and 24 to boot.

He’s got potential to be much better than he is, but is anyone mistaking him for an elite or even high end (think Matt Judon, Trey Hendrickson area) rusher? You hope he becomes that, sure. But that’s a $20M+/year contract and two FRPs you’re losing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
