He's got a job and if another team wants him they can claim him, what's not to like

At this point of the year a lot of these moves are made based on who they think will or won't make it thru waivers. Draft picks will generally be picked up by somebody because they were on another team's board, like the CB we got. With Burns, he didn't have to clear waivers, so easy decision.

Josh McDaniels on losing Drake Thomas.
“The odds are technically in your favor until they’re not,” McDaniels said of losing Thomas during his August 30 media availability. “He was a great kid. He gave us everything he had. … He was competitive in the kicking game, competitive on defense. It’s one of those things where you try to create the right 53 and, sometimes, you’re going to miss out on a guy here if you want to keep working with them on the practice squad. I wish him nothing but the best. He’ll do a great job there. They got a good football player.”
