NFL.com Says We Should Trade Julius Peppers For A 7th Rounder

According to NFL.com, the Panthers should trade Julius Peppers for a 7th rounder.

Yes, seriously.

It’s so incredibly bad of a take I just have to post it here. Don’t give them clicks - just look at the quote I’ll provide:

Carolina Panthers: Sell Julius Peppers

 

Peppers is being used marginally at best, participating in just about half of Carolina's defensive snaps this season (198 of 383). With Peppers in the twilight of his career, this move seems like a deal Bill Belichick would make if he felt Peppers had demonstrated he has enough value to contribute. New England also happens to be in the market for an edge rusher. This one seems out of left field, but also completely plausible.

Potential compensation: 2018 seventh-round pick.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
