Why? Then we would be talking about how the Panthers have no pass rush and were stupid to trade away Burns.
Burns is great but he's not Garrett/Watt/Bosa good, and that's the money he'll command. I think he's far better off on a team that already has a good chunk of DL talent and/or a star player on the line already, like y'all with Donald, which is why the 2 FRP rumor kind of made sense.
He's one tier below, but still those guys don't tend to make it to the open market and are extremely hard to find. I would have been ecstatic if we got burns for 2 first rounders but I don't think that would have been a good trade for you guys.
All in all I think good WR play is much easier to find in free agency than good pass rush. So I think you're better off trading away Moore than you are Burns, even if it takes a few years to build an offense.
