Why it doesn't make sense at this point to put him on such a list.
Edge rusher Brian Burns was the New York Giants' biggest addition of the offseason, Burns having been acquired from the Carolina Panthers for a 2024 second-round pick, an exchange of 2024 fifth-round picks, and a 2025 fifth-round pick.
But while the Giants’ acquisition of Burns has been widely lauded by various national media outlets, Anthony DiBona of Pro Football Network chose Burns as"Not only did the Giants trade multiple draft picks for Burns, but they also made him the third-highest-paid edge rusher in the NFL,” DiBona said. Since his arrival in 2019, Burns has been one of the better pass rushers in the league, getting better than 7.5 sacks per season since his debut, to accomplish the feat. The addition of Burns will surely bolster the Giants' pass rush which already features names like Dexter Lawrence and Kayvon Thibodeaux.
What also needs to be taken into account is his value in the modern NFL. Good pass rushers are hard to come by; they are a hot commodity and are paid accordingly.
