The Giants made the most of having an extra second- and fifth-round pick, courtesy of the Seahawks.
We typically will not indulge too much into free agent signings and trades made across the NFL that don’t directly involve the Seattle Seahawks, but this is an exception. The New York Giants traded for Carolina Panthers pass-rusher Brian Burns on Monday, adding to a defense that already has Kayvon Thibodeaux and Dexter Lawrence. A couple of years ago, the Panthers turned down multiple firsts and a second from the Los Angeles Rams for Burns.
It’s one hell of a contract that makes the 25-year-old Burns the second-highest paid edge rusher in the NFL behind Nick Bosa. Does the 2024 second- and 2025 fifth-rounder sound familiar to you? That’s because it’s literally what the Seahawks sent to the Giants for Leonard Williams, who just got his contract from Seattle.
