Saints looking forward to Pepper-less Panthers


Rod Butsecks

Recommended Posts

Carolina officials have insisted that no decision has been made about Peppers' future. They must decide between Feb. 11 and 25 whether to franchise him.

Why is this so difficult? Offer him a long term contract. Otherwise work out a trade and get picks and players.

Seems simple....but we were in the same situation last year. We tag him....then he has to sign the tag for us to discuss any trades. As evidenced by last year, I don't think he is willing to let us have that control.

I think he will force it again. We will either have to let him walk, or tag him and he will colelct $20M. I don't think he wants the Panthers to have any say on where he would potentially go.

They way I see it is Peppers dose not want to stay for a reasonable amount of money so the Panthers dont want to sign him. This year will be interesting cause no owner wants to spend alot of money facing the eye of the storm aka The Lockout.

but peppers does not try hard but peppers does not like football but peppers takes plays off :mad2: ....well there you have it, both players from the colts and saints raving about how good peppers really is. so all of you football gurus who know for a fact julius does not play hard, please read this article and shut up. you guys do not know more then the offensive lineman who go up against him and the players who game plan for him. this guy is a force and our defense is going to drop off dramatically if he leaves.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
