Let Peppers go


Squirrel

Recommended Posts

Unless he signs a contract we should let Peppers leave. Even if we cant get anything for him. There is no reason to pay him that much money and handicap the team. Johnson is finally coming along and we can sign Brayton cheap along with Browns progression Peppers can walk as far as I care.

new coach isn't going to want to mess with him.

changing the direction of the team will be hard enough without players who are apathetic and aren't on board.

new coach ought to ask him if he's in or out and if he says in than he only stays if he signs a long term and cap friendly deal, and even then i might trade him anyway and get some decent picks. otherwise just let him walk and wipe the dust off the feet.

probably will do the same for several other players on the team as well. i don't expect a house cleaning like the falcons had but they will get rid of the dead weight.

Even if we do trade Peppers, it will be for less compensation than we could have had this offseason. Hurney asked for too much just like he did with Kris Jenkins. We could have traded Jenkins to the Rams for a 2nd round pick in 2007, instead we traded him a year late so we could get a 3rd and a 5th that we used on the studs known as Charles Godfrey and Gary Barnidge.

I dont think Hurney asked for anything.

If Peppers won't resign long term then I say tag him and trade him for whatever you can get. Even a couple 3rd rounders would be ok. Try to sign Kampman and maybe look into Gholston and Moss to bring in for competition. E. Brown will have another year on his and belt and Johnson is starting material I think we could manage.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
