Could we be planning to trade Julius Peppers?

Week 6 is the trade dead line, could they trade him by then? We did just add a new DE to the PS. I also saw them put E. Brown a little last week, probably doesn't mean anything but it could happen I guess. Give Brown a little playing time see how it works out, then possibly trade Peppers before the dead line?

No team (including the team that franchised the player) can sign a franchise player to a long-term contract after July 15th of a league year. So this pretty much negates any trade scenarios. The 49ers tried to trade draft picks for Lance Briggs in 2007 (Chicago's franchise player) but the league rejected the trade for the reason stated above.

If you go back and watch Peppers each play the past 2 weeks....there is nothing to bitch about. Same can't be said if you watch other guys on defense each and every snap. He was fantastic week 1 and was taken out of week 2.....which was smart b/c if you can limit Pep no one else outside Beason or Davis is likely to make an impact play.

I don't think it is impossible to trade a franshised player during the season but there are very strick guidelines that have to be followed and they are not very tempting to the new team. The Briggs situation a couple years back wasn't rejected by the NFL, it was rejected by the Bears and the NFL fined the 49er's for entering into contract talks with a player during the season and while he was on another team without permission. So a trade could happen but the new team could have no future contract talks what so ever with the player, not even if they would be willing to sign with them after the season is over. So that would make any trade almost impossible of happening.

Damn, just opened my Mountain Dew and took a drink and I noticed I got diet. That sucks but I looked all the rules up and couldn't find nothing saying you couldn't trade him. If someone had the room and thought they had a good chance to make a run for the playoffs around Week 6, maybe they would take the risk. I don't know though, just a thought.

the team would have to agree to the exact same 1 year contract that the other team is. someone would have to pick him up now and pay him $1mil/game knowing that the contract is completely done after this year. every bonus they are due would still be due them. all this with no hope of an extension until the season is over.

won't happen.

Yeah, there isn't to many teams with the cap space and most that do are 3-4. Your right, it just is highly unlikely anyone would be that stupid.

      You honestly think Tampa would have traded down with a division rival so their rival could land a “generational player” at a massive position of need for TB?   bruh

      Ya'll better quit throwing shots at Zod. He'll come in here and ban everybody. I had a friend @prosource who was banned in 2015 because he said some very minor things about Zod being an ass to the posters on the main forum after starting the All-Pro one. He said he felt like another level is cool, but don't punch down on people that don't want All-Pro. (He did say that it wasn't going to last long anyways.🤔) I distinctly remember him calling and being like "dude, I got banned, my profile says I don't have access to the Huddle!") I feel like once Tepper came in and cut off all unofficial access to the team, Zod was going to be around less. The All-Pro board had really good photos, even in game stuff, and I remember seeing him behind a little fenced in area at Wofford for non team sanctioned press/photographers after Tepper bought the team. I knew then his ego wouldn't allow him to continue with past fervency and effort with that reduction in access. Dude was literally in the locker room when JR was owner.  I came over in 2011 immediately after finding out this place existed. I was super involved with the Charlotte forum, and fell off after its demise. I will never forget arguing Pep over Ryan Sims on that forum! Who is Ryan Sims some of you may ask? My answer is exactly!

      And not see him running free. Because has been free a lot more than he gets credit for.    Now what XL does with that when he does see the ball, is on him.
