:nonod: How are we going to trade him when he only signed a one year contract. I wheather not resign him to another large 1 year contract. He ain't worth the risk. We need to use the money else where on the team. This team has other needs to address. Like resigning Dwill and TD gettting some young beef up guys for the DT postions and we really need some better WRs to help out smith and most of all find us a freaking Qb who can throw like a brady are manny. Peppers has slowed down and got fatter in the past 2 years and he is turing 32 next year. It is time for people stop kissing peppers ass and let him go. Peppers is just not worth it. Time to move on and find a new front four. Peppers is the last remaining orginal front 4 from the SB year. But is then and this now. Time to move on without him.:nonod:

if we could use the money next year to improve on the DLine as a whole, no, let him go. one great defensive can't do much when the rest of the line sucks. and the defensive line's work is all for naught anyway if the quarterback can't complete a pass.

somebody has to make the money...so il give it to him.when he is not on the field the team looks like boys going against men.(he did too a couple times against long but got doubled some too)
Ha Jared allen of the Vikings get double team aswell but he always manges to get sacks and constant pressure on the QB all the time. Pepper is turning 32 this coming year and is not worth risking 20 plus million on him. Hell Peppers can't even get a second string QB and agaist a oline that has more injuries then our oline has. that shows you that peppers no longer can preform at a high level. The only time he got his sacks this season was mainly from crappy teams like the bucs and skins. And he caught the cards on a off day. besides that every other game this season peppers seems to disappear and get man handle by other teams oline most of the time. Is that how blind some fans are. Peppers has shown this season that he can not produce agaist good teams one bit. So why would you risky 20 million plus on a guy is getting old and can no longer produce at a high level like he use to. :mad:

well, when Pep was healthy....Davis was in and healthy...and the DT problem was fixed w/ Hollis and Tank....the run defense was looking good. Pep never gets enough credit....injury has hurt the D recently. All this team needs is a coach, QB and Wr.

Jared Allen has other playmakers around him helping him to succeed - Peppers does not.

Nah, you let him go in the offseason. We will need it to take the cap hit of cutting Jake.
Well that ain't the point. If the league goes into a uncap year. We should have more then enough money buy jake out if we get a new GM and coach is willing to do that. We still have a months before we know if fox will get canned. At this point I hope he does.

I seriously doubt we will be willing to pay Peppers 20 million for one season, so if he won't sign with us he will be gone.

If Peppers is any kind of a man, he will agree to a sign-and-trade deal so we can get some kind of compensation for him. The contract could stipulate that he would have to give final approval on any trade we work out so he could still control where he ends up. We offered to make this guy the richest defensive player in the history of the NFL after the worst season of his career, it's time for him to do right by us.

Well let's hope for an uncap year. If we don't, then we're stuck. Honestly, I would rather we use that money to resign Marshall, T.Davis, and extend D.Will if possible.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
