Did Schoen make a mistake trading #39 in Burns deal?

Sean : 4/20/2024 9:47 pm
I have to assume that Schoen knew what the parameters would be for a trade up to 3/4 when making the Burns trade. But, he probably didn't anticipate the Vikings acquiring another first round pick when he made the deal.

If NYG does like McCarthy, they'd be in a much better situation with the 39th and 47th pick to offer NE/ARI in a trade up. Having #39 right now would put Schoen in a much more advantageous position.

Do you still make the trade knowing the Vikings would acquire an additional first?

Allen is considered to be very good against the run and had 17.5 sacks last year. I hope you are looking into your crystal ball and seeing that Burns "will" become the same player as Josh Allen because right now he isn't and it's not even close.


Josh Allen wasn't available and the cost would have been a lot more. The giants needed to add to the pass rush. Burns fit that need. Burns is a known, whereas the draft didn't offer elite talent to consider especially when you want to address other needs.

If we only had one 2nd round pick, then maybe there would be hesitation, but the luxury of two 2nd round picks gave us flexibility to address the pass rush with a young highly productive player that will benefit from others playing alongside him in Dexter and Thibs.

The real issue with Burns is that if he turns out to be Golladay then you have the horrible contract plus the loss of picks. If he turns out to be Leonard Williams you basically break even. For it to be a really good deal, he has to outplay his contract.

I'm excited about Burns. I think he has a lot untapped potential.

But let's see if a team makes a move up to draft a quarterback and what they pay.

My statement about Allen was in response to The Mike saying Burns is the same player as Allen. I get why the did it and I hope he takes a real step up and elevates the guys around him. I watched a bunch of Panthers games as I had him and Luvu as IDP on my fantasy team and I saw a good edge nothing more. I'm not unhappy he's on the team I just think the draft capital and the massive contract were too much!

Well when your drafting is terrible for years and years, you have to selectively add talent in other ways. You wanna wait another 10 years to try and get competitive?
Funny thing  
WillVAB : 4/21/2024 8:43 am : link
Is plenty here would be comfortable trading a 2nd for Aiyuk when Burns is the better player at an actual impact position that’s harder to fill.
Why was Car willing to trade him in the first place?  
JoeSchoens11 : 4/21/2024 9:00 am : link
They could’ve tagged him or worked out a deal (they’re in a similar cap and team-building position as us). It sounded like effort was questionable and on-field business decisions may have been an issue…which isn’t ideal for our soon-to-be highest paid player.

He’s also not good against the run which we were awful defending last year. Blame Wink all you want but he’s had good-to-great run defenses throughout his career and Burns will be replacing snaps from guys who were primarily run-defenders on a line that lost AR and LW.

Are we a more talented team this year because of the trade? Yes. But losing a high-value draft pick and $30M in cap space will have an impact filling holes on a rebuild. He’s too good to call the deal a ‘mistake’ but it’s not unreasonable to have reservations.
Schoen essentially flipped Leonard Williams for Brian Burns  
EddieNYG : 4/21/2024 9:02 am : link
Williams will be 30 years old at the start of the 2024 season. He has 43.5 career sacks in 9 years.

Burns will be 26 years old at the start of the 2024 season. He has 46 career sacks in 5 years.

It's a no brainer trade considering this isn't considered a strong EDGE class. Pairing a talented EDGE with Thibodeaux on the other side and Lawrence in the middle is extremely exciting to look forward to watching and see how good they can become.
No  
Biteymax22 : 4/21/2024 9:12 am : link
If we need it for a package to trade up for a QB we can use picks next year in lieu of it, or possibly even throw in a player like Slayton.

If we were to keep it and make the pick, the odds extremely slim the player would be anywhere near as productive as Burns.

the Giants can go to any spot there is a willing trade partner. They have more than enough draft picks to do it even if it involves future years. Simply having 10 picks is beyond irrelevant, especially if many of the 10 picks are outside the first two rounds where the value markedly drops off.

definitively if the trade was a mistake, but I would have rather signed Danielle Hunter to the contract he got from Houston. I get that he’s older, and signing him would have been kicking the ER can down the road a bit, but those picks given up in the Burns trade would be really helpful.

That said, we don’t know if the Giants approached Hunter, and he turned them down.

Hard to top the #23? How about taking next year's 1st round pick and by the sound of that, they may be getting a top 10 pick plus and they get one of the top rated wide receivers in the draft.

Put it in reverse, we are the giants in the Cardinals situation. I would want a slight trade down, and still get a top player plus position myself next year with potentially a top 10 draft pick versus a #23. Its not hard to sell or top.

Carson53 : 4/21/2024 10:21 am : link
'is also beyond irrelevant', well if you don't have a good grasp of how the draft works, it might be construed as irrelevant. Actually it is very relevant to have draft capital to move up early in the draft process. Now later in the draft process, that might be different. Let's say for example, you move up from the 6th to the 5th Rd., so you exchange picks in 2024, and probably add a 5th Rd. pick in 2025. That's doable.
That's just one hypothetical.

There comes a point where the QB doesn't matter because there is no team around him to support him (including defense) and you end up with a wrecked prospect.

If Daniel Jones was on another team, he's probably a much different player.

I'd like to have at least one thing I can hang my hat on in 2024,

Just one thing...one aspect of the game I can look forward to watching every week. If that turns out to be a stouter defense highlighted by an effective pass-rush, so be it. At this point I'll take it. Gladly.

So, no, in my opinion trading for Burns wasn't a mistake. A mistake would be not adding another weapon to the defensive arsenal relatively early in the upcoming draft. While I'd prefer a 3-Tech DT to pair with Dexter Lawrence, I could see the Giants opting for a CB depending on how things shake out.

You are asking the wrong question. It's not factually incorrect because I said it is, it's factually incorrect because you're wrong.

the 49ers traded 1 pick in the 2021 draft in the trade up for Lance (plus 3 picks from other drafts). 1 in the current draft. So, why does it matter how many they had to "maneuver the draft board"? it's a completely irrelevant question.

they moved up from pick 12 to pick 1 in the 2021 draft, it cost them 4 picks. One of those picks was from the 2021 draft.

that's it.

The Panthers moved up from 9 to 1 in 2023 and used only 2 picks in the current draft to do so, a 1st and a 2nd. they added two picks from future drafts to the trade. So again, why does it matter how many picks they had in the current draft?

So, now do you see how factually incorrect you are and even espousing a bad opinion?

No offense.

The Giants have PLENTY of “draft capital”. That 2nd round pick isn’t moving the needle in a trade up nearly as much as you think. If the Vikings are willing to give up 3 1’s, the Giants would absolutely have to add their 1st in ‘25. You’re making far too much out of a 2nd round pick when the Giants still have a 2nd round pick anyways. The Pats aren’t going to care about that pick. They are going to want the 1st next season

not a mistake. if the Giants want to move up bad enough, they can move to wherever they want to and not having pick #39 is not preventing them from maneuvering even a little.

They don't have the draft capital to really move up with only 6 picks. I recall a few years ago they had 10 picks, that's when you can maneuver.



this is not just factually incorrect, it is also a bad opinion.

The Panthers just did this last year, but up to #1 (from #9).
The 49ers did it in 2021 but up to #3 (from 12)

the Giants can go to any spot there is a willing trade partner. They have more than enough draft picks to do it even if it involves future years. Simply having 10 picks is beyond irrelevant, especially if many of the 10 picks are outside the first two rounds where the value markedly drops off.

.

"this is not just factually incorrect, it is also a bad opinion."

'And this is a bad opinion and factually incorrect' because YOU say so, that's good stuff. Now tell me how many draft picks did the Panthers have last year? Or the 49ers in 2021? Do you even know how many?



You are asking the wrong question. It's not factually incorrect because I said it is, it's factually incorrect because you're wrong.

the 49ers traded 1 pick in the 2021 draft in the trade up for Lance (plus 3 picks from other drafts). 1 in the current draft. So, why does it matter how many they had to "maneuver the draft board"? it's a completely irrelevant question.

they moved up from pick 12 to pick 1 in the 2021 draft, it cost them 4 picks. One of those picks was from the 2021 draft.

that's it.

The Panthers moved up from 9 to 1 in 2023 and used only 2 picks in the current draft to do so, a 1st and a 2nd. they added two picks from future drafts to the trade. So again, why does it matter how many picks they had in the current draft?

So, now do you see how factually incorrect you are and even espousing a bad opinion?

No offense.







You still evaded the actual question, how many picks did each team have for that draft year? It's much easier to maneuver if you enough draft capital, which you seem not to grasp or choose to ignore.
I don't espouse bad opinions very often, just to be clear.
I'm done here, if you choose to ignore it, on you.

Sorry, my apologies, to be factually correct SF moved up to pick 3 from pick 12, not up to pick 1 to take Lance.

You’re out of your damn mind. The Giants could trade up if they wanted to. The question is, do they? YOU not wanting to give up the picks it would take is your problem and has nothing to do with the Giants not having enough to make the move. Go back to bed

Let's have the Giants trade picks this year AND next year with a roster already devoid of plenty of talent...to move up for a QB this year. Hey, there is no Elway or Marino coming out this year, I'm just telling you. Have a cup of java, maybe you will wake up...

lol, there is willful ignorance and then there is something worse - whatever this is.

This is what SF had in draft picks prior to trading up from 12 to 1.

What is the real difference maker here that allowed the 49ers to adeptly "maneuver" the draft board like Itzhak Perlman on his Stradivarius.

The Giants currently have a better 1st, similar 2nd, better 3rd, better 4th. Is that those two 5th round comp picks? that's it - in your mind that's how they pulled off this feat? Is it the missing 7th round pick? that's the one?

dude, when you're in a hole, stop digging.

1st round, No. 12 overall
2nd round, No. 43 overall
3rd round, No. 102 overall
4th round, No. 117 overall
5th round, No. 155 overall
5th round, No. 172 overall
5th round, No. 180 overall (from NO)
6th round, No. 194 overall
7th round, No. 230 overall (from NYJ)

Also, a trade up to 4 wouldn't be too much. We're talking pick 6, 70, 2025 2nd at the most. That is absolutely worth it. I wouldn't trade up to 3 for anyone but Daniels though, that's where it gets really expensive.

Carson53 : 4/21/2024 11:04 am : link
had what seems like 9 draft picks in that draft year, okay.
The example I used was the Giants had 10 picks a few years ago
So who is digging out of anything?
I don't know why I engage with an argumentative person who likes to insult along the way. Somehow, Eric and the others who run this site, don't seem to mind. That wouldn't fly on other sites, that I can assure you.
