John Clayton just said on ESPN Radio (Regarding Peppers)

He said right after that Cleveland might want to trade Brady Quinn, I don't know if he was saying to the Panthers (I hope not) or if it was unrelated. I am drugged up on flu meds but my wife was next to me and I asked her if I heard it right (about pep being traded) and she said I did.

Trade deadline for franchised player has already passed.

I mean this is John Clayton...I feel like he knows his stuff regarding the rules. But like someone else said, we would have to be 0-5 for this to happen. I'm not worried about his trade value. Everyone in the league knows he is loafing because he doesn't want to play for us. My guess would be to the Patriots for one of their first rounders. They know that they need some serious help with the pass-rush in order to win the super bowl. I would actually welcome this scenario considering we would probably ask for their Raiders pick or their later 1st rounder with some extra compensation...

Yea I think I could only settle for a 1st round pick. We will need one next year.

Dont quote me on this but I think the Raiders' pick was in 2011. If Fox did this it would mean two things, 1) he has lost Peppers and probably other players 2) he is already gearing up for next season. I wouldn't mind them doing this as I think we have some DE's that can play and right now they are no better or worse than Peppers.

I don't think at this point he could contribute much to NE since he would be starting at square 1 even if they would want him solely as a pass rusher. Plus I don't think they have the cap room to take on 17 large nor do I see where that would come from. Yes the Seymour 1st round pick is 2011.

I doubt Pep gets traded this year, it just doesn't seem practical for any other team to do it.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
