Peppers- You make the deal


Nu Guns

Recommended Posts

1. Phi- kolb and 2nd pick

2. Ne- 1st rd pick

3. Clev- quinn or cribbs with a 2nd or 3rd rd pick

4. arz/den - strait up trade for boldin or marshall

5. keep peppers at all costs

These are all hypothetical ....but its what I would like!

Any of these but #5. I want Peppers but he is not worth a million or more per game.

The years uncapped so I don't really care about the monetary part.

what I really liked was that somebody propsed trading him for a high first round pick. We trade down. Pickup a DE, DT, and WR in no specific order. We'd be sitting pretty. And have lots of extra cash. We would definately need a guy who would pass rush or we'll suck hard next year.

What team would trade for a defensive end who is going to be 30 years old that will make twenty million? The only way we can trade him would be to franchise tag him and try to get him the sign to tender, which we should know isn't a guarantee.

do the reverse, front load him a long term deal.... no cap next year and many questions about 11 anyway. I dont think he will get traded with the tag on him anyway and no action is a sad possibility to begin with. Who can with a straight face actually say: "The Panthers defense is better without Peppers."?

Adam Schefter just reported that we will likely let him go for free

We better do something big with that 16 million bucks that we are saving then.

I have confidence that we can do something with the guys we have on defense but we need to add some players with that extra money, whether it be at WR or DT.

If we aren't paying Peppers that means we have enough to sign TD and Marshall to new deals. It also means that we can probably upgrade the #2 WR spot with a guy like Breaston, Floyd, or Antonio Bryant. I'd also like to take a look at Hampton, Wilfork, and Pickett in FA to play NT instead of paying Maake a 9 million dollar roster bonus.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
