And still nobody has answered the burning question. When the Panthers offered Pep the 90million contract to be the highest paid DE in the league, he said he didn't sign it cuz he didn't feel he deserved it. Now he wants to be the highest paid defensive player in the league...So what changed???

He probably lied. Brentson Buckner, who I don't believe on everything, has said repeatedly that the real reason Peppers has been going through all of these different excuses for leaving is because he just wants to LEAVE. As in, he just wants to get out of Charlotte. Saying publicly that you just want to get out of a city kind of burns your bridges with an overly emotional fanbase that has become attached to Pep. That's why there's a new reason for leaving in every interview that happens.

I agree, that is how I feel about this whole situation. I believe Carey AND Peppers are pulling the wool over alot of people on here.

Monumental blunder by the FO if he walks for nothing.

I wouldn't go that far...considering what we could do with the money saved.

We would have enough money to throw at a lot of big name players with 18 million off the books. We could be serious players for Brandon Marshall, Osi Umenyiora, Seymour, Kampman, Pickett...

With Pep off the books we could sign two of those guys if the price was right. I would rather trade a 2nd rounder to get Marshall and sign a guy like Kampman, than have Peppers at almost twice the cost.

If we can't work out a long-term deal for Pep, this would be the most ideal situation in my opinion.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
