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.

    • So you believe that Levis had a better day throwing deep because one of those was a TDs? Asking for clarity on that as it was already clearly demonstrated that Bryce would've had a TD had Moore not dropped it in the back of the end zone. The entire purpose of their metric is to look at the throw and grade that because the QB has complete control over it. That was made abundantly clear from the video provided prior to that. Nobody is trying to manifest him as a top-10 player. He had performances during his return from benching that measured in the top-10 in different metrics. The issue at play is that because those stats support Bryce's progress (and refutes that his ceiling is his floor), that you and other people that don't care for Bryce being the Panthers' QB are going out of your way to either a) ignore factual data, or b) cast uncertainty on the methodology. There's no actual interest in stats and facts like as you mentioned previously. All of the non-PFF info, like passing yards in a single game, is also not entirely reliant on the QB. That's one of the points that Jimmy has hammered home but y'all continue to try and sidestep: that the ability to throw deep relies more on elements like timing rather than physically having a howitzer for an arm. Yes, arm strength does play a role but let's not be coy: the entire narrative that Bryce is not a capable deep ball thrower is 100% rooted in the same reasoning that folks had for thinking he wouldn't survive an NFL hit... bro is too smol. We have plenty of data (AND film) that show this. Whether or not the people that don't want it to be true stop clinging to what they want to believe instead is up to them.
    • This isn’t a bad deal for the right people. Sure not everyone has that kind of money to burn. But $10k for everything including all travel (that includes a private flight), lodging, meals, tix to the game? Meeting former players? It’s a lot of logistics that if done solo would take a lot of time to coordinate. When I was younger I spent my time to save money, and now I spend my money to save time. 
    • Displays of luxury spending like this are the only thing that will wake up the poor peasants currently shouting at each other. At least, that's my only way to optimistically look at this trash.
