Burns is the centerpiece in general to managerJoe Schoen's roster makeover.
The New York Giants’ acquisition of outside linebacker Brian Burns has been mostly well-received among fans and media outlets.
Said Schwab, "The Giants traded a second-round draft pick for Panthers pass rusher Brian Burns. In 2022, the Rams offered two first-round picks for Burns and were denied. It's surprising the Giants were able to land the 26-year-old for such a low trade cost, though he got a five-year, $141 million contract upon the deal. That's not a bad price for an elite pass rusher."
Schwab noted the importance of the Giants' losses on both sides of the ball, safety Xavier McKinney and running back Saquon Barkley, saying it was “a surprise” that the Giants didn’t use the franchise tag on McKinney while admitting that although it was probably hurtful for the Giants to lose Barkley, “it probably wasn't the worst thing to pass on Barkley at the price."
