We could always Franchise him again and ship him...not like its going to hurt us capwise THIS year

If it comes down to us having to franchise him again, then I totally agree with shipping him - there's no sense in paying a guy 20 mil to play for one season.

If we can get him under contract for a reasonable amount then I say we keep him, he's the only consistent pass rush threat we've got right now.

He would break the sack record in his first year in NE.

I have to say that I think Pep would be a fish out of water at OLB. I know he's made some spectacular plays in the passing game but I think he would really struggle at trying to drop back and play in space and cover TE's and slot receivers 1:1.

From the games i have been seeing they have been using a lot of 43..they prob would mix it up..

But could you imagine what peppers could do in NE..:(.And they get him for free

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
