00:00 Trader Joe swung for the fences and landed himself a nice acquisition in the form of
00:05 pass rusher Brian Burns, whom the New York Giants acquired in a trade with the Carolina
00:10 Panthers.
00:12 The Giants, who signed Burns to a five-year $150 million contract with $87.5 million guaranteed,
00:18 gave up one of their second-round picks in this year's draft, pick number 39, their
00:23 original pick, and a 2025 fifth-round pick to the Panthers.
00:28 This compensation is very similar to what the Giants managed to work out with the Seattle
00:33 Seahawks last year when they traded Leonard Williams.
00:37 The Giants still have a second-round pick, number 47, acquired in the Williams trade,
00:43 and they also added more firepower to their edge rushing group, a group that last year
00:47 contributed just 19 of the team's 34 sacks last season.
